I'm assuming that this is the same little turdy that sent you the mail last
week? (yes, turdy IS a word: ter-dee- someone who acts like a idiot ie: a
turd, commonly used for people younger, or lower in social status than you.)
Oh yeah, sarcasm level=on

Tell him/her that you'll sell him your spiffcraft and that's all. So, you're
lookin' at 500 smackers, plus let's say 50 bux for shipping, and 120 bux for
stupidly annoying e-mails, so that's ummmm, let's see, summer's taken it's
toll! argh uhhh 50 plus 500 hmmmm, 670 buckaroos! I'm gonna snatch one up
right now! Even though I can buy all of the parts on brickbay for 15 bux!
What a deal!

sarcasm=off
