What? Pictures?
Cliffon is certainly in a hurry to get his toasters and his camera phone. This is an attempt to pass time while working him up a little bit.

Cliffon,
I hate to say this, as I thought I was pretty good at deciphering customers' desires, having been in this job for nearly 20 years, but I'm not sure I understand what you're asking for.
Are you asking for me to ship you pictures of the toasters? Five of them? I thought I already sent you one. Granted, it wasn't the "actual" toaster, but a factory stock photo.
Is it hard copies you want? Actual photographs sent to you in Nigeria? I think you lost me there.
I suppose we've got to overcome what they call the "language barrier." Funny isn't it - both our countries were British colonies and have English as an official language and we still don't seem to understand each other that well. It's probably just email. It's always hard to tell what people mean using email.
I just need you to clear up what you meant by "5 pics of toaster for shipment."
For you information I'm looking into what exactly a Nokia 93000i is and where to get you the best price. It sounds to me like that is something we'll have to buy new. We don't usually do that as it means the prices are a lot higher, but there is a chance we can find it used.
I'll get back to you on the toaster shipping cost as soon as I get the exact number. Then I can determine the weight.
Thanks for your interest! You're certainly keeping me busy.
Harry

Me mean? This guy is so aggresive about his toasters you'd think he'd already paid for them.
