and then this

Hello i got the delivery confirmation that the check will be deliver to you by Monday but I want you to understand that the deal is on and my secretary as posted the payment promptly, but there was a little problem which i guess we can handle with care while i contacted her to confirm if the payment as been mail out i was made to understand that its actually as been sent and but instead of the actually amount of $757 for the USED TIRES she made out the check for $2500 she claim that was what i requested but she didn't get that straight. The payment was already posted before i was inform about this but i wouldn't want this to delay the sale as i have rectify this with my Bank. Beside that, the check is a certified check once the payment as been made it can not be cancel. So all you have do is, once you have the payment is to take it to your Bank and have it cashed and you will then deduct the money for your goods plus a $200 for the errand. The excess fund on the payment will then be wired to my mover via money gram that same days so that she can come for pick up as i already plan on using the excess on the payment to offset the cost of the various shipments he as undertaken on my behalf. Do let me know if i can trust you to have the excess sent to my mover thank you.

best Regards.
