That's fine with me, I will issue out a cashier's check as a means of payment and when it clears your bank, I will arrange with a shipper to come for the pickup right after that OR i add up some $ {money} for you to help me ship it via Post office Priority mail ,so I will need your full name and a mailing address where the check will be sent to Am located here is Florida

Today, 22OCT2025 at 0421 CDT, received direct email via a gmail account from a "Bruce Ruben" regarding an item I currently have for sale on qth.com only. I specifically stated in my ad to respond through the QTH.com system only. Apparently this individual is still at it. Remember to perform due diligence before responding to any ads or ad inquiries.

He just tried to scam me too, same story about sending a check. I asked him for his call, didn't get it.

He didn't even want to discuss shipping cost.
