I didn't get one. Apparently my reputation as a flint hearted cheap skate is international.
However, I have been having an existential crisis during my exile to Manhattan, Kansas. To help out, please send me a couple pairs of Con Denti pedals, two 175mm Stronglight left crank arms and a dozen pair of NOS Paris Roubaix Setas. I'll return them when I return to my right mind.

This came in just now labeled as "My Plight!" Smells fishy to say the least! Note it is not addressed to any particular person. This is a new angle for the con artists though....
<< Hello,
I am in a hurry writing this mail to you, I had to traveled to Wales, UK for an urgent function and unfortunately for me all my money was stolen at the hotel where I lodged. I am so confused right now, I don't know what to do or where to go. I didn't bring my phones here and the hotel telephone lines were disconnected during the robbery incident. So I have access to only emails. Please can you send me (1,350.00 GBP =1,994.76 USD) as early as possible so I can return home.
As soon as I get home I would refund it immediately. Please I need you to get back to me so I can let you know how to send the money to me.
I'm looking forward to hearing from you.
Regards Angel...>>
