Okay, so a few weeks ago I posted an ad on craigslist listing some furniture for sale. I was selling some old furniture of my grandmothers that included a bedroom set and a recliner for $150.00. I was completely upfront about the condition and age of the furniture. I sold the furniture with no problems and even had quite a few offers afterwords. What gets me is the response I got just a couple of days ago. Maybe one of you readers can enlighten me to the logic behind sending this to me 6 weeks after I posted the ad.
The follwing email has been posted complete and unedited. Please let me know what you think.
"i've viewed so much stuff thus far here in pensacola that i finally HAVE to make a comment to someone. im from seattle and the stuff you're selling would be placed on "free items" list. in fact, the EXACT chester of draws you are selling for 100.00 sat near my street corner for three days (in seattle) with a "im free" note on it before it was carted away. those chester of drawers were in hotels all over the country in the sixties and seventies... then there are the people that are selling things for 50 bucks that they could advertise in san fran, chicago, seattle or NY and get 20 times the amount. I'm not going to point out what because thus far I'm making a killing. No wonder people down here think the bible is true and bush is telling the truth.....they're idiots. "
