What do they expect me to do? I was wondering if they were trying to pull some identity theft or something, and didn't want to give the requested name and mailing address. Of course, anyone responding to the ad is getting at least that much. They want to send a USPS money order. Well, there are conterfeit USPS money orders. But I would have to clear the money order first, and then do the shipping. Heck, it would pay the shipping as well.It's got to be a scam! Buying without sight or sound, not even a mention of brand or model. It really is freaky to be selected for something like this. It's like, "oh, they've got my number".
