Deutch ebay help

Won a couple of kits off a German seller, it seems he made a error when he selected to ship outside his own country,

Hes willing to sell to me, but his English is really bad, about the same as my German so i guess he could offer to by me a drink and want to sleep with me.

Can someone just translate this bit(btw what is the airshipping called?).

"Both kits, well packed by airmail to England. Do you just take Euros or any other type?"

I asked him in English and my German so no doubt he doesnt understand either as his English back doesnt make much sense.

This is the last bit i got from him

Luftpost

Beide modellbausätzen, wohl gepacken auf Luftpost nach England. Nehmen Sie nur Euros oder jene anderes Geld?

Probably

Hallo Yes people in the past said use bobblefish or what ever the online translators are called, i found they made funny sentances so stayed away.

Someone emailed me not long after with what i needed, but the guy/girl in Germany hasnt replied. First time i have seen a German with poor English, actually quite hard to make sense of what they wrote, infact i know many who can write better English than me.

I write first time with my poor German, which i guess wasnt a good idea. thanks!
