Ball less idiots emailing me from my classifieds ad.
Discussion
My car is currently for sale in the classifieds. I keep on getting idiots telling me I'm asking too much for my car. Thanks for your insight, but I really don't give a s
t what you think my car is worth. I would like to ask these spineless idiots if they want to buy my car, but just can't afford it. They don't put a proper email address so I can't reply.
This is what the last tits email said: you must be joking at that price, if you get that i will lick your car clean.
To anyone that has sent me an useless email wasting your time and mine. The car has had plenty of interest thanks, at the price I'm asking for it. I've nearly finalised a sale. But being that it only seems like Europeans have any money the car will be heading off to Europe.
So to Mr Sensible... When would you like to come and lick my cars clean? I've got more than enough you can get started on.

I'm sorry to say it but you seem to be pricing your car at almost the level that 2003 160s are being advertised. The one I saw had less than half the miles of yours.
Would 12-12.5k be a more realistic price?
ETA Price any car site

Don't post that on here - send him an email for goodmess sake!Would 12-12.5k be a more realistic price?
How can they email you without giving you the means to reply? 
While I was waiting for the advert to load, the tab heading said it was an S160 in scandal. A few years back I remember them going for £12k - £15k and guessed a current asking price would be towards the lower end of that range. Your price seems a bit strong but not wildly out (i.e. £25k or something) but as I say, it was just a split-second guess.
EDIT: Demanding the asking price seems a little precious. No two people will place the same value on a used car so it's only sensible to accept that some degree of compromise may be required to reach a price that buyer and seller are both happy with.

Just be careful that by 'Europeans' they don't actually mean Nigerians!
The new owner will only be getting the keys once the cash is in the bank. Which will mean they will have to pay me in cold hard cash in pounds sterling. Which I'll be paying into my bank there and then. Should be enough to cover my arse.Gassing Station | General Gassing | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
