Regards,
Martin

Hi Luda,
So is bank cheque not an option? what about direct bank transfer?
Are you sure a Delorean is what you want for your vacation? It's more of a show car and with the flux capacitor installed there isn't much room for luggage. Please confirm you are still interested.
Thanks,
Martin

Apology :I was just about to make the payment when i had this little problem with the picking up,I got an email from my agent...he said he won't come for the pick up unless i pay him the agent commission fee first in order to be able to schedule suitable a pick up date and time and my pick up agent Headquarters is in China and all commission payments made for pick up from anywhere in the world is sent to their Headquarters in China and the only form of payments they accept is western union money transfer and i tried to pay online (
www.westernunion.com) but it requires a credit card to make the transfer online which i don't have access to and there is no post office on sea.(there is usually a western union section in most post offices). So now i will include the $2,500 they charged to pick it up and take it home(1st class treatment)to the payments i will send through PayPal.After receiving the confirmation email from PayPal after i have made the payments, i will need you to help me send the $2,500 to my pick up agent through western union money transfer.The western union money transfer can be made at a post office or online at
www.westernunion.com .I will be making the payments shortly and will email you as soon as am done.

No worries Luda, but Deloreans are quite valuable and require extra care with delivery, when I bought it and had it delivered from 1985 to 2012 the cost was $5,000 so it might be worth checking the cost.
Cheers,
Martin

I have just made the payment now and i expect PayPal to have emailed you by now,check your PayPal email address if you have been messaged yet in the folders junk/spam, i sent $57,700 in all, i have decided to add the amount of $2,700 which i paid through PayPal, So you can now wire the sum of $2,500 to my agent's Headquarters in China via western union where they confirm all commission payment so that they can be able to schedule a suitable pick up date and time immediately.
As said earlier in my previous email,the western union transfer can be done at the post office as their is a western union section in all post office and can also be done via the internet(
www.westernunion.com) .I added extra $200 to cover the western union charges which shouldn't be more that $60-75 but just to be sure i added $200.
Here is my pick up agent Headquarter info needed to get the money sent
through western union money transfer:
First Name: James
Surname: Watkins
Address: No.8 Xiushui East Road,
City: Chongwen District,
State: Beijing,
Zip Code: 100027,
Country: China.
Note:PayPal won't release the funds until they get the western union information from you due to the fact that i emailed them about the excess payment i made.Please kindly email the necessary details to PayPal :the MTCN which you will be given at the western union after the $2,500 has been sent as well as the sender's name and address used to send the money through western union so they can take necessary steps.

This is great business, please see attached a receipt but I accidently added a 1 in front of the total so I overpaid by $10,000, ooopss. Are you able to make another payment? otherwise I'll use the Delorean to go back in time to fix it.
Let me know
Martin

Sorry there, I made a mistake. Can you refund my over payment or should I go back in time? The flux capacitor is warmed up ready to go if needed.

Ok will do now.
Whoo hoo, I'm back now, I sure did have a hard time fixing the problem it while avoiding contact with my former self, you know, you can't interupt the space time continuum or the universe will colapse on itself.
By the way, I got a tyre puncture on the way back, is this a problem for you? I don't want your vacation ruined by not having a spare tyre.

Glad you are ammused but there are 2 issues:
1. I went into the future and have to warn you not to drive the car after 4 October 2021 (if you still have it) as the plutonium reactor is due to expire with catastrophic results
2. Thanks for you bank account details, I guess you missed that trojan virus I sent, you may notice less funds in you account by tomorrow morning, HAHAHAHAHAHA
LMFAO
