"hello, My name is Capalnas Dorian and i`m from Constantana,Romania.Recently i registered on eBay to sell my products because i have a store and intend to sell outside my country.
I contact you because i have a big problem.I`ve
notice that everyone from eBay community accept payments thru paypal. i try to open an account to, but it was impossible,i can not fin my country on the paypal website. i contact eBay 'live' talk with them but they can`t help me with this. I decide to ask some serious seller from eBay community to help me with my problem. First of all..i don`t need you paypal account,i only
want you to let me to put my buyers to send theire payments into your paypal account.
You will not do this for free,i offer you 10-15% from the amount for your services. Your Job is simple,all you have to do is to accept payments from my buyers and after that send the payment to me. i would be very greatfuly if you take my email seriosly and help me with this.
Please reply me only if u are intersted,although don`t bother!!
Thank you in advance!
Looking forwoard to hearing from you
Sincerly,Capalas Dorian"

I think we should copy and paste this into every ask a seller a question we get where the buyer is asking questions already answered within the regular auction listing.

LOL Michael ... I like that response ... scary thing is they will probably "get" it?! lol ...
and tonight, I have a guy contacting me from craigslist about a big item I posted there, and it's the old "i'm interested in your antique furnishings ... I am prepared to pay you in u.s.money orders ... don't worry about the shipping because I have my own shipper that will handle it."
then 20 minutes later he sent exact same email except he said, 'your t.v.', and I don't HAVE a tv on craigslist. LOL ...
