I feel your pain Steve. Some people just don't get it.
I tried give away a trailer full of surplus construction material on CL last week. I got a dozen responses to the ad. I called the guy who sent the first email , set up a time for him to come pick it up the next day - nothing.
I emailed the next person and they couldn't come for a couple of days and I said I'd get back to them if it wasn't gone by then. Third email in line set up a time the next day, but I told them I would give them one hour after the appointed time before the deal was off and I was calling the next person in line. I finally got rid of the stuff, but what a pain.
A couple of years ago I gave away a kit-built patio that was on my house. I had to have it gone in one week and I told everyone who came to look at it that it was free, but they had to give me $100 deposit that I would return when they removed the room it in the allotted time. Ended up with a real sincere guy who was very grateful for the room and stuck to the deal.
