oh and if $400 is too expensive for a brand new epiphone dot w/an upgrade archtop case and a full setup, then youre a cheap bastard.
im all about finding good deals, but seriously? i even said id be flexible on the price. christ almighty, getting price comparisoned to death.

I spend about 60% of my waking hours trying to rip people off on craigslist

how come i cant figure out
when your joking or not echo
i want to study you
do you mind?
ive ran into a bunch of aggressive sellers on cl lately
this guy didnt list a price
i emailed him askin him
i always put my phone# and email
so he calls me in the middle of the night 3 times
dropped his price $150 by the third
which was still too high
but the next day calls me like all dissappointed in me
like i didnt show up for a date
it was so weird
and i think crackcocaine may have been involved
but yeah people are lookin for deals on there
just hold your ground
handfulls of cash are so tempting
and people know that and will use it
im not a good haggler
and have sold some stuff way too cheap
just because someone asked

The worst is the enthusiastic/flaky buyer. On more than one occasion I've gotten pms from guys saying stuff like, "OMG this pedal is incredible I MUST BUY IT NOW." Once I send them my pp address, their tune suddenly changes. I either get no response back or something like, "Sorry not interested anymore"

It's people with kneejerk reactions and they feel like they need to get their name in before someone else...then they realize they don't have the money or their GF said no or.....blahblahblah
Yea, that's lame.

I just hate when people lowball you on like, stuff that's already priced pretty low. I mean, I know it's gonna take a while to sell that klon but I don't give a fuck cuz its not mine anyway, but I mean, I feel like some people will contact you just to subtly say "I'm not buying your shit cuz I think you aren't giving me a good enough deal brah".
