I agree, usually I am more careful

On an ironic note, I got this email a couple of days ago……

carriedi started a new conversation with you at Mesa Boogie Amp Forum.​ Heartbreaker head shell​ Hey, have you try asking S60HUB about the Heartbreaker head shell he has to part out? If not i will advise you to ask him because the last time i spoke with him, it's still available and he wants to let it go for a very affordable offer. You can email him for a fast response. [email protected] Have a nice day.​

So the syntax and natural language flow is off in this message. It’s understandable but wrong in the sense of how we would naturally speak with English as our first language. Any time in my other collecting hobbies I would see oddities in language, I’d back off the deal. It’s really the little things that add up. Sometimes we want it so bad that we wish it true; just to be had . Happened to me on a gun sale back when- and I’m still freaking pissed at me and me alone. When reevaluating the deal; it was in black and white. And just like that, I grew up to people who make a living by stealing. That would be a tuff job to live with. Fortunately it wasn’t a huge loss for you BUT maybe the lesson was worth it. I guess it was for me. Idk.

Thanks for informing us. Did a member from our forum do this to you? If you can share more details, that would be very helpful.

Broken English should be the first red flag.

Absolutely!
But, after living in Hawaii for 25 years, I got used to a lot of different dialects, accents, etc……
I think my brain automatically interprets “Broken English,” into English now
