I tried to sell my xbox 360 with all my games and I kept getting lowballs and some fucking person who wanted to trade a smart phone for it.
I don't want o trade in my motorcycle to the dealership because they will jew me but I also don't want to deal with craigslist bullshit

I have sold a few things, including a truck, where all communication was through email or txt. Might have been a phone call at the very end on the day of the sale.

>but its a modified sports car. >Modified Kek good luck, only scumbags buy modded cars. You are going to get robbed, mugged, and sexually assaulted.
What do you mean by modded? Are we talking a shit sr20 swap in a shitty s13 or turbo upgrade on a Porsche 997?
Back in the late 90s I bought and sold a professionally upgraded 300zx turbo, but that was a 40k car so the price did weed people out.

>put something up for sale >people start asking if seller would take $x for it or that they have cash on them and they will take it today if they get it for $Y >or what's your final price >all without having looked at the car in person
lmao fuck off cunts you aren't going to get a response from me. lol does that shit even work on people. like why the fuck should I care what they offer me or if they have $x on them right now if they haven't even seen the car yet or give a valid reaosn why I should give it cheaper.
it's always some Indian cunt who tries that shit.
Like fuck man. when I go buy a car I at least just ask when I can see it and if the price is negotiable. then I do it in person in a non-asshole way.
if someone tries to negotiate with me as the seller in a way that they think they're Mr hotshot ultimate lowballer it makes me not want to sell it to them.

>does that shit even work on people
The "i've got x amount of cash, I'll come get it today" does sometimes. It depends on what you're buying.

>work for goodwill >people think just because they gave something that they are entitled to get discounts or straight up swaps for other things in the store.
what do they not understand about it supposedly being a donation. then they get pissed off when I say that it isn't a swap and that if that's what they were expecting then we can't accept their (often shitty) "donation"
