Ooooh, that reminds me I want to look at some motorcycles and pianos and feign interest just to get the seller's hopes up!

 

[lizardboy]

No worse than the sellers that never respond to "I'm interested in purchasing the xxxx you have listed on Craigslist." e-mails.

Seems like 95% of the replies to FS listings on CL are bogus for one reason or another ... I still use it though because its free!

Meh, part of selling

While we're at it, I do not believe a vehicle that "just needs an engine" or "just needs a transmission" is in "good shape".

 

[marketsons1985]

The best is when they email me, telling me they're interested, so I email back, and I guarantee it lands in their junk box....which they never check.

Or "little body work needed" = half the body + frame is rusted to shit

"no i can't really use a snowmobile in trade"/phone
"no,i really dont want a snowobile" /in person

 

[Narse]

No worse than the people that schedule appointments to look at the car you are selling and then never show.

You post a phone number in the ad?
I just use an email to weed them out.
