I kinda wish I got fun offers like that. I have a few high end pedals I have been trying to sell forever and all I get offered is crumby practice amps from the early 90’s and Squier basses that gave been abused... Dude offered me a guitar ounce and I explained I was a bass player and already owned two nice guitars and was set. He got kinda violent with me as if that would help.
I traded the first bass I ever owned for a bag of Columbian. It was a pretty crappy bass. I definitely got the better end of the deal. Far out man!
Many years ago, I had an Ampeg 810 for sale on my local CL. It was advertised as for sale, but trades will be considered. A guy emailed me and offered his old slide projector and some collectible coffee cans (?) for it. I politely declined and explained that I was only considering bass-related trade offers. He then replied with a trade offer of "free Lake Erie yellow perch" for a year. He said that he would catch the fish himself and deliver it to my house every week. As much as I love lake perch (That fish is an important staple to the northern Ohio diet), I again explained that I'm only looking at bass-related trades. After that, he proceeded to bombard my inbox with derogatory, profanity-filled hate mail. That was a hoot.
