I assumed this would be the end of our conversation as I was not very polite but he did not seem discouraged and replied again

"Hi there,
1. How much is the final price?
2. What is the purpose of selling?
3. Can you tell me the service/ maintenance history?"

"Thanks for the information, i just wanted to make sure nothing has been left out. I'm comfortable with the information you gave me, I will buy for the price, payment will be sent via PayPal and i will handle the PayPal surcharge as well. My shipping agent (shipper) will come around to inspect and take care of any necessary documentation needed for the purchase on my behalf, funds will clear in your bank account before pickup. In the meantime can you send me more pictures if available?"
