I tried to GIVE away a TV on CL, a 37" tube type that needed a small repair (we replaced it with a flat screen), and got nothing but grief.

When I told one lady we lived in the country, she said "Oh, I'm scared to go out in the country". Another guy said he needed it for a housebound handicapped lady. Never showed up. Another couple got mad because they couldn't find my house after very specific instructions (ask Zundfolge how easy my house is to find).

After about six no shows and three weekends, one guy actually showed up and took it.
