    I sell stuff all day long and It's all the same sh%t, I delete them always, if the person will not call you or has a address over sea's forget it.
    Go confidently in the direction of your dreams. Live the life you've imagined.

    My name really is David Moore and this just sucks that some one is using my name to scam people! I am a frequent buyer of items in the RDC classifieds and I am NOT a scammer. I don't write those hokey emails and I always put all of my contact info in the email when I inquire about an item. If you are an advertiser PLEASE call me before you delete my inquiry.
