Is this still available? |

the only people who communicated well were the ones i bought something from. like they had stuff they wanted gone and were happy i wanted it. things i've bought: berzerk arcade monitor that needs a recap. CRT TV's. LAwn Mower Stone Though I hit one guy up for firewood and he responded 4 weeks later AFTER the snow melted asking if i still wanted firewood. and of course the people who ghost you for a day or two because they are juggling buyers. |

I can't believe how many people have answered an ad I have up for something and they never thought to look at where the hell I am. Never mind the jackasses who are trying to scam me- somehow. Favorite comedian of mine put it well- If you really want something tell them you'll pay even a little more than their asking price. As long as you don't come off as an expatriot Nigerian prince it works wonders with them being patient about you getting there. |

man, i hate effi'n around on deals. if you want something and have money... hey, i'm interested in your _________ if its still available, I can come this afternoon and pick it up? is all you need to say. i dont even bother to haggle. i know what i'm willing to pay and if your price isnt what i want to pay, i'll keep looking. i'll find it for what i want to pay. nothing worse than i really want this thing you are selling but i dont get money till next friday, can you hold it for me? can i get this for $20 less? also... can you deliver this to me? are you within walking distance of ______ ? *5 minutes before arranged pickup time...* all i could get was [lessThanAskingPrice] is that okay? |

Meh. Answering a few questions by text requires very little mental or physical energy. |
