Selling things on Craigslist is extremely convenient, but I haven't had a good experience yet. I have two people interested in buying my bed, one that has called me several times, asking inane questions in broken English such as "does your bed fit in a Lexus 300?" How the hell is any reasonable person supposed to know the dimensions of a random Lexus? She's flaked twice, scoffed at my price, tried to talk me down several times (I haven't budged), and claims to be coming this afternoon. We shall see.
This was my second response:
Hello
I appreciate your response to my inquiry. Am interested in buying
it from you. I would love to come and check it myself but I just got
married and am presently on an honeymoon trip to Hawaii with my wife.
I would love a surprise change of furniture,electronics in my home on our return.
Please do withdraw the advert from craigslist as i don't mind adding $50
for you to do that, so i can be rest assured that the item is held for
me. I should believe it is in good condition as stated. I will be
making the payment via a Certified Check, which my secretary will
mail across to you. I'll be picking the item from you with the aid of
my mover. My Mover will be coming to pick it from you once the
Certified Check has been cashed. Please I will need both your full name
and physical address along with you phone number to issue out the
payment.
I await your urgent response.
thanks
