He will send a money order.
DO NOT RESPOND to this email. It's a scam. I've seen this one a hundred times. Report it as Spam if you haven't already deleted it.
Even as a type this I feel that there is something coo koo about this. I am off to delete the post and block his e-mail. This is too weird.
