Man I keep running into straight up dicks on Reverb. TB and ILF classifieds are really the best. A guy made me an offer and I said I will meet you half way and gave him a counter offer. He goes well I can get if for this local but don't want to wait three weeks but I know how the guy here takes care of his stuff, I don't know how you take care of your stuff. No thanks dude I can already tell you are a head case, buy local then. Mind you this is over $5 bucks too lol. Last guy asked my return policy after I gave him the tracking number, I more or less said well if you are shady and trying to swap my good one with a broken one you can't return it, he only gave me four stars lol.

The MO lately has been people who don't read or ignore my location on craigslist ads. Then haggle and after We make a deal, they start trying to get me to come to them or meet in their extreme favor. I wait for local meets unless it's a big ticket cash grab.

Gas being a variable cost, I considered part of the haggling.
I know I am going through that with a guy now wanting to trade some pedals. I say ok of his offer of two pedals for two of mine and I don't even know if I really want his but figure well maybe his will sell faster than mine. Then find out he wants to meet half way, so ok. Then he is well I can get this for this much and how about one of my pedals for two of yours. First off no thanks, then I said well I really wanted to sell more than the trade so I made him a great cash price for one or both of the pedals I have instead, so he is mulling it all over now. Gas and how much of my time is this guy going to waste is definitely a big part of it. I just don't get the back and forth over something small and as inexpensive as a pedal. If I want something then I buy it and sell it off if I don't feel it is a keeper, no biggie.
 
If your not in a hurry and a person sucks, tell them someone else offered a trade, but if he's gonna buy it's his last chance or something. He'll walk away or do it.

Also guys rotosound swing 66 stainless steels. They make short scale sets, it's a .90 e but maybe that round steel string might still give the bright growly grind?

Bummer. I've had nothing but smooth sailing so far on Reverb (knock on wood).

I know, I had one dolt that I don't think knew how to use a computer that I was trying to buy a guitar off of. And two jerks during my sales. I bought two times that went real smooth though and the guys at Reverb where real helpful when I had to deal with the dolt. I think I got spoiled by how cool and honest the people on the TB classifieds are.
 
Just sold a blu ray player, the lady said $35 instead of $45. Then says she only has $30 and I was ok with that, but I said "dang that's a sadness...ok I guess" and she recanted lol.

Told her my specific location and where I'd be. She manages to show up at a gas station somewhat near my place and asks why I'm not there lol. What's weird is how she then said she didn't know where I lived to begin with. How the hell did she manage wind up in my neighborhood on my street 5 blocks away anyways then?? All I gave her was my apartment complex name lol.

I don't drink soda really, but had to try a Moxie and it's awesome! Tastes like an antique store smells. Slightly Woody and sweet with strong notes of old dusty potpourri.

Also got a 12 pack of Pearl Light the 68 calorie awesome beer! Screw you snobs it tastes good, and I still get very buzzed. Time for the American team World Cup game.
