I'm making friends left and right on Craigslist!

So I've been eyeing this Baja for a week or two.
Today the wife said go get it. I figgered for 200 beans I couldn't go wrong. The tires and the tank are probably worth that.

I texted the guy this morning, it went like this:

 

[chancer]

Geez. The guy just went straight to A--hole! You even said thanks.
I think you let him off easy.
Any moron can go to CL and delete their ad, he did not need his email!

I think you were being nice reminding him to take down the ad. He is the one gonna be getting calls for the next week.

The Aussie equivalent of CL is gumtree; any time I respond to an ad, my first message is ALWAYS "is the item still available"; if the response is "no", I also suggest taking down the ad; NO ONE has ever responded like that but, Aussies are much more laid back than most...

 

[Bbqjoe]

NO ONE has ever responded like that.

It took the wife hours to stop my crying.

 

[OzFab]

Take a spoonful of cement & HARDEN UP, PRINCESS!

 

[Bbqjoe]

I want to make sure he sold it, or took the ad down.
Everyone here should call.

 

[chancer]

Cause clearly and For no reason, He just did not like you!
Maybe someone else will have better luck.

Typical Craigslist. So what were you saying again ? Lol

 

[chancer]

Yeah CL sellers do dumb stuff, but to call a guy a "Posterior Orifice" for no reason!

 

[Bbqjoe]

I usually do pretty well with CL people.
The last guy I bought something from, I went to his place to get it.
I told him if he funds me over, I'm coming back and burning down his house.

Don't try that nonsense at my house. Whoever will come to me with fire, from a fire will perish...

 

[chancer]

I contacted the seller. He did not respond.
Maybe I will try again later.

 

[Bbqjoe]

I contacted the seller. He did not respond.
Maybe I will try again later.

That's because he's frantically trying to remove the ad.

Maybe I'll copy it and repost it.
