Need front door changed

Description

Attached is a photo of the front door of my house, a standard 7' x 3" door. It is old, and the wood has lost its integrity, so that depending on weather conditions it expands and contracts, causing difficulties in its everyday use. I have tried shaving wood off the sides, but at this point the real solution is changing the door. As new doors are exorbitantly expensive, I am looking for someone who has access to used doors. I want the door to have this same design, and I know that doors with this design are still being manufactured. I like the area with glass, as this lets sunlight into the front entrance. it can have this same amount of glass or it can have more. I also want the doorknob and deadbolt lock to be where they are now, on the right side of the door when you are looking at it from the outside, so as to not have to make changes in the doorframe. On the other hand, I have no problem with the door being unfinished, or painted a different color, as that is solved with a coat of paint. Let me know if you are interested in taking on this project of supplying and installing the door I need, and what you would charge. I want to be totally clear. I need someone who has a suitable door and will come install it. It is a package deal. Send me a photograph of the door you can sell me. As I always get a lot of replies, include the information about your history that I need to choose someone. I will not pursue emails that just say “I can do it” or that only supply a phone number I am expected to call. Twice recently I have encountered something on Craig's List that I have found disturbing. I had someone lined up to come with a door tomorrow, and I was appalled to get a text from him saying it was conditioned on my wiring him $150 for the door today. I have no idea who he is or where he lives, but he was demanding $150 wired in advance as a condition of coming. I recently had another person who was going to do work say I needed to wire him $50 in advance to show my good faith. Talk about walking into a scam. There is no way I will agree to such terms. That is why I am reposting my ad. The person must have his own tools and a form of transportation. It can be a car, a van or a truck—just not public transportation.
