Crazy Criagslist add
 
Considering posting this add on Criagslist:

For sale,
Air triangle once played by a baked mushroom salesman in the audience of the 3rd annual Eureka Junior Orchestra production of “Annie Get Your Gun”. Will consider trades for other quality air instruments no air Hurdy Gurdys please.

A little voice keeps whispering "don't do it" but I am really tempted to see what kind of responses I get. Also, I don't know if it is against the rulles of Criagslist.

Well, before you go throwing that up on CL, could I interest you in an 8 week old Unicorn (full Xerxen pedigree...not one of those elven bred flight ponies).

That sounds tempting. Is it a free range Unicorn raise on organic unicorn food? I think my wife might be allergic to Unicorns though.

Reminds me of an Ebay ad auctioning off a jar of air from Elian Gonzales neighborhood years ago.

LSquared 01-17-2013 01:52 PM

Years ago, I saw an eBay posting selling dirt from Ronnie Van Zant's grave..... BAck in the days when a high percentage of the items were "used" ladies underware.

I like the "avoid scams and frauds" in red above your CL post, think it will tip anyone off.?

I deflated when I read the "no air hurdy-gurdy" part. I just had mine relined and wanted to move it because it just sits in the corner like a limp beach ball gathering dust.

Sorry tbird but I already have an excellent air hurdy gurdy that was once played by a baked curd salesman in the marketplace at Marrakech

Got some replies, this one is from someone we know and love around here. I won't say his name but I think he races hard drives. I will reply later

Will you ship out of state?
I will gladly pay the shipping costs and compensate you for your troubles.
I have been looking for that triangle ever sense I saw Annie Get Your Gun by the 3rd annual Eureka Junior Orchestra.
I know I had a lot of wine that day and a couple hits of some really good acid but it was the best sounding triangle I have ever heard. I must have it.
Please reply with your pay pal address so I can send you $50 for your trouble. If that isn't enough please let me know how much you need. I can send you a USPS money order if that is better. Thanks
