(another email back to him)
Notice that now his name changes on the ship to address and the worldwide freight company has a gmail address...how boring. Of course before long we would have the "Oh my mastercard is full, I must use Western Union" rubbish.
Like anyone in business is ever going to be stupid enough to use Western Union.+


Dear ,
    Thanks for your patience. The Units I am purchasing is
for my orphanage homes in

Accra

Ghana

and i will like you to
contact a shipping company with the total weight of the Units
  and your Address and ask them for the shipping cost.The  email
for the shipping company  is Laylacfreight@gmail.com
 
Email them and ask them for the shipping cost to  the
orphanage homes in Accra Ghana.Country code 00233.Ask when they can pickup,what needs to be done before they pick up and their Method of
Payment.I was on a flight as at the time I contacted you and as
at that moment,I was thinking I could come get that Units
picked.Unfortunately I will be staying a little longer than
expected..Make sure to email them the weight and address to be
shipped from to get an accurate freight quote.Email me a total of
the freight and I will email my credit card info for payment.
Thanks and i am really looking forward to having a successful
