Adventures on Craigs List
Mrs WD and I have been in a frenzy of downsizing - giving stuff to St Francis and Goodwill, selling on ebay an craigs list. CR is a hoot. I've met some great people and corresponded with some real A-holes. This is not epic or anything, but I had some fun with a guy today. His first response was actually only three characters.
CR – TV?
Me – Yes, I have a TV for sale. $225
CR – I’ll give you $125
Me – no thank you
CR –$125, take it or leave it.
Me – no reply
CR - You there? You’ll never get more than $100 for it. I’m offering $125
Me – why are you offering $125 if you know I can’t get more than $100?
CR - $125
Me – Is the extra $25 because you sense I am a nice guy? Or do you think I’m broke and need the extra money?
CR - $125 or no?
Me – I’m not broke. I don’t need the money. If it’s only worth $100, you insult me by offering more. F-you!
CR - $100. Where is it?
Me- In my living room
CR – Where do you live at?
ME – Doesn’t matter. I’ll meet you outside my office building. The TV will be in the back under a sheet. You drop the money at the front door. Brown paper bag.
CR – You crazy
Me – You go around back. I’ll count the money. If it’s all there, I’ll tell my associate not to fire.
CR – You crazy
