Some people are suspicious of Cashier's Checks. With all the technology around today, I would bet they could be forged. To me, Cash means Cash. I am like the rest of you, I would not take $4000 dollars to the first viewing of the machine. Maybe $100 to get them to hold it if you decide you want to buy it.
