Mephisto Bavaria on German ebay

Post by Larry »

The board would cost a fortune to send to Australia at today's prices, so
I asked the seller if I could buy the Genius modules from him, and could
he please send them to Australia. This was his answer:
"No! MfG"
The 'no' I understand. What does "MfG" mean? Any German readers
here to help me out? Is it the German middle finger in written form?
Does the "M" stand for "mother", in which case we can guess the "f"?
puzzled regards,
Larry

Larry, it's the acronym for the German pleasantry, 'best regards'.
