HIS RESPONSE:


Seriously you do not have to be an asshole. I'm in highschool still and do not have a lot of money I'm just trying to find one for cheap for my restoration project How about you put a freakin price on it

Well considering you didnt have a price, Yeah what do you expect

[VaderTT]

You're the one with $1 as the price and no pricing reference. Make a shit add, get shit responses.

A kid who is probably paying for this himself and working on a car instead of mooching off mom and dad and you ended up being a dick. I'd rather help a kid out who is up to good than hoodrats out thieving and screwing shit up.

Guess you lost that sale...

I was pretty ugly to a couple of low ballers a couple of weeks ago. They wanted to quote me what my bike was worth per the normal 60 percent off since it was used. Fuck em.

You should at least put a starting point.

If you don't put some kind of price, then how do expect people to know where to start the bargaining process? How much do those things go for anyway?

General rule: Would you be offended by what you said? Every negotiation has to have a starting point.

There is nothing worse than an "ad" with no price. If you can't even figure out how much you want for it, how should someone else know where to start?
