Title: Somebody's got an auction on CL aparently
Post by: bfauska on April 04, 2007, 10:58:42 am
Looking at the times these two posts were made, I think there may be somebody with a backwards sense of how to sell something faster. 
First ad (http://seattle.craigslist.org/see/clt/305318171.html)
Second ad (http://seattle.craigslist.org/oly/clt/305409759.html)

I've never seen that technique work very well.  I wonder if he'll pricematch himself.

I fixed the second link.

Not many lekos here, we mostly use ETC, and I can't touch them, I am (low level) management, the union would be all over me.

You should respond to both ads back-to-back as though you're interested and see what response that gets.   ;D

The only problem with that is that I really want the $1000 one :laugh2:  The cheaper one must be a piece of junk right?  I think that this has been posted for the last several weeks too.  I don't remember the old price but it seems like at some point you would realize you're asking too much.  I suppose if you are not in a hurry to get rid of it or get the money it doesn't matter if you ask too much.

OOOHHHHHHHHHH, I bet I figured it out.  His WIFE is selling it for $695 and HE is selling it for $1000, I bet the wife sells it first.
