Do you ever just want to smack some sellers?

Post by girlracer »

I always check my local craigslist for games, but here lately i've been seeing a person with a list of games like ps2 sports games and they want $5 each. I just want to smack these people.

Prime example in my area

Yeah and they seem to post their stupid ad week after week. Today, someone posted an ad for a free NES system, controllers, and a few games. I saw the ad an hour after it was posted and replied. I was too late (9th person to reply). Darn!

Do you ever respond to those ads to let them know that they're worthless? I do sometimes and usually I don't get a response back. But occasionally the seller is truly clueless and appreciates me telling them the real market value of an item.

Usually the sellers I want to smack are mostly on eBay; with their rediculously high prices on games that aren't even really worth as much.

All the ladies they love me, from the bleachers they screamin
All the ballers is bouncin they like the way I be leanin
All the rappers be hatin, off the track that I'm makin
But all the hustlers they love it just to see one of us make it
