Hello, I came across your ad and I'll like to know the following questions regarding the ad. Q#1. How long have you owned it? Q#2. a) Have you owned it from new? b) If not how many previous owner? Q#3.Why are you selling it? Q#4. In your opinion, what sort of conditions it? Q#5. Anymore available photo? Q#6. How much are you asking for it? Q#7. Do you accept a (PayPal)as a mode of payment. I'll like to have the response to these question in your earliest convenience.
Hello,
I really appreciate your respond,I located at West Hollywood,and i want you to know that am okay with the horse status and also the conditions of the horse and the asking price as well,I am an Assistant Cook.am currently at sea at the moment. I am buying the Horse as a gift for my Dad as a surprise for him,he wont know anything about the Horse trailer until they get delivered to him, i can only pay through pay pal as i don't have access to my bank account on-line as i don't have internet banking,but i have my green dot money pak online attached to my pay pal account. and this is why i insisted on paying you through pay pal, kindly get back to me with your pay pal details if you don't have PayPal account yet,it is very easy to set up at your bank and get it set up,after you have set it up i will only need the e-mail address you use for registration with PayPal so as to put the money through so i can proceed with the payment and after the payment has been done, i have a pick up agent that will come around for verifications and to pick the Horse after i have made the payments for the Horse .So I will need you to provide me with the following information to facilitate the making of the payment.

1.Your PayPal full name.
2.Your PayPal Email Address.
3..Your phone number.

Once again ,I will like you to know that you will not be responsible for shipping. I will have my pick-up agent come over as soon as you have receive the payment confirmation.

Regards.
Maria
