assistant: Sorry, couldn't ship it COD. I've tried this a couple times and the customer
ended up changing their mind, so I ended up having to pay $10 for shipping to
have the package returned to me. If I was running a comercial business I
would gladly do this, but with my current resources I can't.
I would on the other hand accept a personal check, money order, or cashiers
check for $35 and I'll ship the drive to your front door. If you need some
references, just ask. There are many satisfied people who have done business
with me on the system.
I'll take $35 shipped for this as well, or 65 for both...
Sorry if this has been any inconvience,

assistant: Just a beware.....
I sold over $300 worth of hardware to Danny O'Donnell and sent it COD by
his request.  His check bounced, and he refuses to either return the
hardware or pay for it.
From what his parents say this isn't the first time.
DO NOT SELL ANYTHING TO THIS LOSER !!!!!
See ya, Ray
