Dear Tom,

Just got your fax. I'm going to need a day to figure out what your cost would be for these plugs, but I'm sure my company will be able to handle your order! I need your fax number so I can send you an account request form so I can be able to process your credit card. What card will you be using?

Looking foreward to doing buisness with you,
Chris.

Oh I got one... Do the Paypal thing when they have you verify the account. When he sends you the info credit his account like .0x and another .0x cents and have him verify the transaction. :)

4000 plugs.

Why would you send anything before getting paid for it? Seems like you would need to be really stupid (and deservingly so) to fall for something like that.
