Very strange. I, too, had a gentleman from England offer me a third party
cashier's check for $5000 for a $1500 rig I was trying to sell and he wanted
me to send the difference to him along with the rig. I even answered him
with "no deal".
Boy, was I stupid to even answer him like a gentleman.

Hmmmm...... I musy be getting thick in my old age. If you wait until the
cheque shows up, have the cash in your hot little hand, then the radio
gets sent out, where's the scam ??? Now if you were to ship first and wait
for the cheque........... more fool you :) !!!!
