So why don't you confirm the payment is good before shipping the piano...? I wouldn't send anything without knowing the payment is good, Do you think this is something from overseas?. Did you respond? I never get this stuff. Personally, I would never buy any piano on-line without asking a fellow tech to look at it. but who knows what this guy is after. But then, as you, we know too much! <G> Did anyone respond to this? Just curious...

As a music store owner- this type of mail shows up all the time. The person wants you to assume that they want a piano. They will pay with a fradulent credit card and disappear. There is nothing innocent or poor grammar about it. It is usually someone off shore and is always a scam.
