I have listed products to offer?
Really? [Yes, your Amazon affiliate [1] links. –Editor]
Oh, yeah.
But that aside, what's the angle here? I mean, random spamming of companies
looking to buy unspecified items? Um … perhaps inserting themselves as middle
men, advertising your products as theirs, passing on the orders they get to
you to fulfill, and charging their “customers” more money?
Perhaps?
Either that, or Mr. Allen [2] is really desperate for money.
And assuming he is, Mr. Allen, here are my answers:
1. FOB (Freight on Board) [3] EXW Boca Raton (Incoterms 2010 [4]).
2. Cash up front, no credit. Payable as US (United States) dollars or an
equivalent amount in gold or silver.
3. Please allow four to six weeks for delivery.
4. We don't talk about Flight Club (think happy thoughts—I'm expecting only
four people to get this).
5. Um, what part of “Please allow four to six weeks for delivery” did you
not understand?
That should work.
