    Was it something like "I am calling to confirm your purchase of an Apple IPad from Amazon for $799?"
    My reply to the obvious scam attempt was "Yep, I purchased it!"

    What kind of wood?

    If it isn't a species that is very oily you should be fine without planning the edges again. If it is a species that is oily wipe the edges with acetone before gluing.
