Everytime I post on Craigslist...

Yeah, I know accessories don't always add value per se but i figured these items would be great/necessary for most campers. Also, any new camper wouldn't have the hitch (I didn't when I bought it) so it just made sense to include it. But if someone asked to not include it, I'd take money off.

After that reply, I knew it was best to just end it. I just laughed so hard when he said "market value" doesnt work for anything other than real estate.

So let me get this straight, your credit is so bad that even "Ripoff Randy's Easy Credit We Finance Anybody Used Cars" won't give you financing, but you think I will?

Yeah, that'll happen. :rolleyes:

Sorry at this time i am unable to offer financing without an interest rate of less than 40%, weekly. But i appreciate your interest.

As for the OP's issues. I don't bother replying to people like that. When asked if i will take $$$ less. I suggest they come inspect the unit listed, especially when it comes to campers. Most of the "used" "well maintained" have been sitting in their pasture 2-3 years.
Here's what i have, here's the price.

It happened more than once?

I think at least twice.

Low dollar items, but still.

What was it one of those "I will gladly pay you Tuesday for a hamburger today" deals?

$100 down on a boat, then the other $300 never showed up. Something like that.

I once took a down payment to hold a car until a certain day. The lady fell off the face of the planet for a week so I sold to someone else. She came back to get her down payment though.

Craigslist definitely exposes you to a unique side of humanity. I love it.

Oh, and I met my wife through Craigslist. Not. Even. Joking. ;) We've been together 11 years now, married for 8.

I received an email questioning my asking price because he was using NADA and the value was less. I told him how I came up with my value and I'd be happy to adjust if he could show me some examples in his price range that were comparable to mine. I listed all the extras mine came with, alone with other selling points, to make sure we were looking apples to apples. I looked at campers between $8,000 and $12,000 and there isn't much that compare to mine unless I was missing them.

This was the reply I got:



At this point, I felt it was best to just end it and I replied with "good luck on your search".

Am I off base here on figuring out for sale prices? Also, if I don't need the extras listed on an ad, I generally ask if they're willing to remove the items and sell it cheaper.

Anywho...this is the general type I've dealt with on Craigslist recently. Always wanting a super sweet deal at your expense.
