*SOLD*
I put it in the paper and had four calls the second day. One guy was really interested, came out, gave a deposit, and picked it up yesterday. He was perfectly painless. The other people who called showed no indication of being any more worthy of air than the seven clowns I have mentioned in this thread. Oh yeah, I got it for $5500 ($5400 after listing fees and filling the tank up). I paid $6k for it just over a year ago, so I think I did well.

It's no wonder so many people trade vehicles in. I've had five calls this week for my maxima. Here is how the people were so far:
1) Prick Dick #1, who sounded mentally retarded and drunk, organized to test drive the car with me that evening. We had a specific time. He would call me back or I'd call him, but in any case I called him. No response. I blew 25 minutes going to pick my car up from crapmart to bring it to where I live (close to him).
2) Morons #2. I waste 20 minutes for this idiotic couple to "check out the car", which consisted of them looking at it (which they could have done at walmart without opening it) and me turning the engine on. The idiot guy didn't want to drive it before sorting out financing. Thanks, dick, for wasting my time you piece of horse garbage.
3) Retard #3. "Hey man the car is just what I'm looking for, but I need to sell my S10 first. Are you interested in a trade?" Well, what the hell did he think? NO.
4) Bitch #4. She is interested in the car but needs to sell her 2004 focus first. In the meantime can she check the car out? Of course not. I told her to frig off until it's sold and essentially not waste my time. I hope she never calls back.
5) Person #5. This guy is supposed to check the car out tomorrow and so far, on the phone, sounds normal. He'll probably turn out to be a useless idiot like most other people. Maybe not though. He did sound reasonable. UPDATE: He never called back.
6) Teenager #6. So this guy just called. My car's asking price is $5500. He asked if I'd take $4k in cash. Idiot. I told him I already had an offer for $4700, dumbass. He "had to talk to my dad". Yeah, you go do that!
7) Blind person #7. I got a call yesterday. I thought I'd sell both cars and see which one sells first (97 or 00). This guy calls up and says "I see they were 5 speeds, but are they automatics?" Firstly, I don't know about a 5th gen, but a 4th gen's auto definitely was a four speed. Secondly, if somebody says "5 speed" you should assume it's a manual. Thirdly THERE WAS A PICTURE OF THE INTERIOR, YOU FREAKING IMBECILE.
At least I'm not selling a car in the $1200 price range, which brings up a whole other separate bag of worms, including people offering insane prices like $600 and dolts asking if they can give you payments for it. They really are the bottom of the barrel.
