I mentioned in a sales thread what a weird time I have had selling some carded RAH figures. This is an example of the emails and pms I've gotten concerning 80's Joe figures.

If anyone speaks thumbtexttypese, please help me translate this as I truly have no idea what this fellow is trying to say.

btw: this is real. An actual email I received this AM. I could not make this up.



Well obsolete want him ill have to take a look at the pics again man and ill let u know can u send em to me thanx

Insane!
As an English teacher, I am both offended and fascinated.
As a collector, I am annoyed and titillated.

Basically, he wants you to send him an email with the photos that he apparently has already seen. And while the toy is "obsolete" in that it is no longer sold on shelves, the potential buyer is "absolutely" interested in owning him.

Ah yes, resend the pics. Got it.
I had a lengthy discussion about this figure with this flipper. So, although I know one cannot recall every detail in every conversation, I assumed he slightly remembered what we were talking about.

hmmmm. maybe I can make this stuff up. :smiley1:

I think the bally fellow wants a shufty at the happy snaps old boy, he can't find your item anywhere as it appears to be out of print but he definatly is intrested and will probably try to make you an offer of some onecers. :yes:

He might just mean he wants to study the pics you already sent,
and when he's ready, you can send the ITEM to him.

We absolutely are interested in them. Please resend the pictures again and we can work out a price from there.

Tell him if he don't speak proper English, than no deal

If anything ever happens you don't even have coherent emails to fall back on as proof.

Maybe his friend named "Obsolete" wants to buy him. . . .

It may be prudent to avoid terms like "proper English" with THAT syntax Mike ;)

Tell him if he does not speak proper English, then no deal.

Please speak proper English. :smiley1:

Could he have been using a translating program? I've seen stuff like this before from people that speak no english and use those programs.

I think it means you were contacted by Rob Granito.
