Apologies for the long post:
Way back when I posted about how I was picking up a Tournament Cyberball that had a 2072 boardset in it. A new member joined just to contact me about it. We shared several e-mails about it and I eventually got the following e-mail:

thank you for the update on the game. If you say that $xxx is your best offer I will offer $xxx (I would need shipping, just need your help on setting that up - at my expense of course).

Have not changed my mind, just been out of town on business. I will be making payment this week - probably via paypal.

You should be receiving payment within the next 48 hours. Please confirm when you do receive payment. Sorry again for the delay.

Thank God you wrote. For whatever reason I did not receive your previous emails, probably due to an anti spam program I installed in my CPU.
Nevertheless I do want my machine and I apologize for the inconvenience in the delay. I will contact Navl to set up pick up and shipping and keep you informed.
