That makes sense now but there wasn’t a question to respond to. I find Cookson expensive now and on other forums there are a great many complaints...

I was in fact answering an “hello I am new to this forum” post where the author asked where to start looking for supplies and tools. Sent from...

As Josef1 said as k for a deposit before you send, if that falls though just sell it on your site.

Have you double clicked the email address to see if she is someone else just using that name? It does sound a bit strange

I always take a deposit of half the money up front so it covers cost of materials and a bit of time , if its a genuine customer and its a bespoke...
