"Do not think u r a "suck"!! I send the card in UPS, if buyer none requset. Please do not say that word again, see the detail maill fee...OK! THANKS A lOT.. U can CHOICE the mail fee.. DO NOT NO MANNER DESCRIPTION AGAIN!! I have never lie u ......and never think u r a ""suck""!!!!!!"

Good to see you keep your standards up, mate! Don't think he'll be laying anyone if that's the best he's got.

Must be a Hong Kong / China / Taiwan seller...........am I right?

If he sent you an email like that, he probably also did not understand what you were saying to him in the first place.

If you haven't bought the item off him, just stay away.

Translation into gentleman's English:

"Kind sir, do not for one moment believe that I am trying to partake in a postage swindle. I send my cards only by the highest priority UPS shipping methods, unless of course an alternative option is requested by a purchaser such as your fine self. I would be utterly taken aback if you were to make reference to "that word" again, my terms are laid out in plain English for all to see. I give all rights to the purchaser of my fine wares as to the methods of postage and thusly the associated fee, make no mistake. I would never tell a lie, to you or any other, and certainly do not take you for a "sucker". Good day sir."
