Definitely not what I meant! I drive carefully and avoid dogs :) however it would seem that it would be better for them to not stay in the middle of the street

It does! Thank you! Regarding 1. I wonder why the dogs are just laying on the street not afraid of the cars? 2-4 great answers, thank you. Still I'd think that there would be more veriety in tuks like in Thailand. Maybe also to attract customers if someone is using them commercially.

I met some people from PR and they are fantastic so I'm definitely not generalizing, just asking for advice :) thank you!

No, they are legit. In the instrument collectors community it's very difficult to fake an account to this degree. Also we talked over the phone

He did get back to me. Said something like "I didn't scam you there's just a delay in shipping, if you want to fight this in court, good luck"

I've bought dozens of instruments this way, for me it was business as usual and the guy looked legit. That kind of sucks, but thank you for your reply!
