Some people are just nuts on Craigslist
I use the site quote often, and have endless questionable experiences on there from cars, free shit, to basic items.
One of my cars that I put up for sale, some guy kept flagging my ad, posting counter ads, and sending me emails that I need to stop scamming people with my broken car. Supposably it had 0 brake life, failed power steering, and other issues that all did not apply to my car.
I think he thought, I was the previous owner of the car, and probably had some beef with him, or maybe that particular car was flipped for a profit from the previous owner or something
Another time I posted a car for cheap due to space issues, some lady wanted the car bad, but I clearly listed first come first serve in the ad.
She ended up flagging all my ads, posting counter ads, saying it has problems etc, and sending proud emails to me that I will never sell the car because she will just keep flagging them. And this lady was actually nuts, she literally monitored CL every 10 minutes for HOURS, just to prove her point.
I replied thank you for letting me repost the ad, because each time I repost it, it comes up as the first link on the search.
That was a classic
This one isn't really associated with nuts people, more of a wtf:
I had a D150 for sale, guy says he wants to test drive it, no problem, come on by
Dude shows up, meet him on the street, and I say "hey man, here for the D150?"
He replies: uhhhhhh I thought It was a b m w
At this point I realize he is half baked and dead serious about it being a bmw, and I'm probably gonna waste my time like most CL interactions
I reply: uhhhhh no, it's a Dodge truck
Him: well, ummm, alright, let's go for a drive anyways
He takes it for a spin around the block, and says "pretty sweeeet, I think il take it"
At this point I'm even more dump founded, story cut short that was the FASTEST sale of a car I ever had. |
