Hello, I could use a chromed oil dipstick, as the oil keeps sticking to mine. Willing to pay in Nigerian pesos or antique Italian liras. ;D

OK....so who used my address.  >:(
I woke up this morning to find all these in front of my house, and some guy from Holland muttering.
theres even an old burnt out seat from a DC-3.
Stop using my address and come pick up your stuff.
There was one small one with 500P written on it ....I'm keeping that. ;D

I think that seat in the pic is from a Boeing maybe 707 or 727.

It's the Money Transfer Control Number. 
Should be ten digits and look like this:  123-456-7890

Tell him something like "sorry this is my first time and instead the control number I sent you the authorization code".

Man, the guy has started to be demanding...

Better yet, tell him that just in case your e-mail is being sneaked you are sending him first the odd numbers, and the even numbers through your other e-mail account. When he complains he never received the even numbers tell him that's strange blah blah blah. At the end you can give up and send the even numbers with your regular account. When he complains that the number doesn't work you can tell him that you're so sorry, but what were suppoused to be the even numbers were the odd and vice-versa.


Poor ol' George. Will we hear from him soonest?

I would tell him you just located another seat pan and start dropping the price, before you release the numbers.  It is a scam and he will take 10 euro over 0.
These wonderful little birds are great flyers, delicious eating, excellent for training your hunting dog, and just fun to shoot,or stuff and keep around the house.  Bobwhites can be put with other types of Quail and have very large penis's.  Quail are very popular with the babes.

Speaking of euro's. What did you guys let Big Brother do to your money?  I have never seen a Euro, does it have a big roving eye on it?  Does it transmit gps code.  If you buy grass with it does it explode and cover you with dye?

I couldn't find the seat, but I've got a Police Speedo off a NZ CB750 (in Kilometers per hour) that I bought on ebay from a guy in NY, and I stumbled on some NOS rhs handlebar switch blocks/throttle assemblies with extra switches for microphones etc if you need 'em? None of them stinkin' "Euro's" though mate, US or Aussie dollars only, I don't even know where "Euro" is, ha ha! Eeee-uuuww! Cheers, Terry. ;D
I was feeling sorry for myself because I couldn't afford new bike boots, until I met a man with no legs.

So I said, "Hey mate, you haven't got any bike boots you don't need, do you?"

Due to the strenght of the euro now, I can afford to buy a lot of things from US sellers that I couldn't afford a couple of years back. The difference reach 40%, that's a big saving. On the contrary, I can't be competitive as a seller because of that and the higher postage rates of the spanish post.

OK Mate, I do have another cop speedo that was on a Suzuki GS750, but dunno how it compares to the Honda one, although I think it may be smaller, the CB750 Cop speedo is a big sucker.

The local wrecker showed me two RHS NOS Cop handlebar switchblocks, dunno if he had any LHS ones though? No idea what he wants for them, but i'm gonna drop in and see him this week, so I'll ask?

Bundy is a foul liquid best used for washing the skid marks outta your undies after a big night out on the VB and Lamb Kebabs. I only say this because it turned on me like a red-headed stepson midway thru a mates wedding a few years ago, and I woke up around midday the next day, naked and covered in my own vomit.

It hurt me to think that a drink that I trusted so implicitly would do something like that to a friend, so I banished all traces of that evil brew from my life, and not even my close friends are permitted to utter it's name in my presence!

Now something similar happened with Jack Daniels at a mate's 21st birthday party back in 1981, but time heals all wounds, and anyway, how can you stay mad with Jack? Ha ha, Cheers, Terry. ;D

Rag,

go visit www.419eater.com to get some ideas about what you can do to those greedy scammers; You started out well, the scammer is hooked. See if you can get money out of him.

"I really need that seat pan, but 500 Euros is a lot of money and I don't know if I can trust you. Send me 50 Euros in an envelope to my Postbox so-and-so and I'll send you 550 Euros back"

Something along those lines. Just be sure not to send any info traceable back to you.

BTW, I am the wife of the late Mr. Soichiro Honda, currently residing in Nigeria. I have a container full of original Honda 550 and 750 Police-parts but can't get them out of the country due to the UN and US embargo raised by Harley-Davidson and Kawasaki to protect the communal/police bike market.
If you can send me ALL your police-parts to show me you're a real collector, I'll send you this container together with 5 Billion Dollars. Really.  ;D

Yours sincerly, Dolly Honda. :-*

Let him have some more walks to the office, that's good for his health.

That 419eater page has a lot of good advice. Actually I've opened a new email account and I'm playing along with a cheater that wants to sell me a 2004 Kawa ZX10R (12.000 euro) for 3.600 euro. The transaction must be -you can imagine- via Western Union. I'm keeping all the mails and will post them.
