my first craigslist experience

[hate_dr_dre]

alright so I'm trying to unload my 42" plasma on craigslist, since my gf said it was easy and there are stupid people who overpay for things. I listed it for 1075 hoping to get it at or around that price, and I get this email.

You're wayyyyyy off on this price. You can buy a new one for $699 or thereabouts on any given Sunday now!

How's $250 sound?

I lol, then reply with

this retailed for 2k and is in like new condition. It isn't a 699 plasma and ive never seen one for that low. I won't be selling for any less than 900 sorry.

he counters back with

Purdue? Are they teaching you how to be stuck on stupid there? Boy, that TV (no matter what it sold for new) is a $699.00 plasma NEW at Circuit City today! Look at the black friday ads tomorrow. You'll see. You are not going to sell it for $900, either. Look what $900 will buy, with two-year warranties! For crying out loud, man, take the $250 and buy a brain.


Ok, so I was just going to send him back something to the tune of "go fk yourself" etc., but now I'm thinking of giving him an address and sending him to the ghetto to try to get a tv that isn't there. solid play?

Why cause he is right?

[edfurlong]

Good timing on selling your tv imo.

[goofyballer]

I like your idea to prank him even if he's mostly right just cause he's being a dick. You should sell for at least $350 though.

from this post my guess is that if you were on his end, you'd be just as big a douchebag.

lol symmetric insults

if I were him, I'd be the douchebag. yep pretty much if x=y then y=x solid


Anything less than like 800 is meaningless to me, so I'll probably end up giving it to my brother.

I sent the guy an address and a "final offer" of 350. this should be good.

lol sounds like the dude is probably right. it would be piss me off too and i'd probably do the same thing your doing.
