WTF..strangest craigslist encounter yet

[SAWYER]

So I had an ad for a Blackberry online and this older guy calls me and asked if I happen to have the black leather case for it. I told him yes and he asks how much and I say 5 bucks. We get to talking and I find out he is on a fixed income, probably disabled. He tells me he is on his way in just a little while. He calls and I tell him not to even worry about the 5 dollars and he can just have it, he insists he won't do it. I tell him it's no big deal, I have never used the case and never will and I didn't need his 5 dollars. The guy starts crying and says he still has a little pride left and insists he pays or he won't take it.

I felt horrible for the guy and said ok and I would take his money. He should be here any minute

Isn't "Blackberry Case" Craigslist slang for buttsecks?

If he's on a fixed income and doing poorly, he doesn't need a black-berry case or a black-berry.

I'm sick of poor people who just don't know how to ration money. I saw a lady who was using food stamps at the local grocery store, and then she started surfing on her iphone as the cashier was finishing up. If you need phone stamps, you do not need a $60+ a month cell phone plan.

You live in the South? I see similar things pretty frequently where I live.

 

[Krazy4Real]

Damn, I didn't even know phone stamps existed.

 

[McWatt]

There's an app for that.

If he'll be proud paying $5, tell him he'll feel like a king if he pays $50!
