Craigslist frustration! / myLot

Mays Landing, New Jersey

August 21, 2016 1:57pm CST

Why is it no matter how clear I am in my sale listings that the price is firm and that I will remove the posting when it is sold, people insist on wasting my time with insane low cash offers and filling my email with "Do you still have this?". Sorry I needed to vent.

Sometimes people think if the item is not sold, you might reduce the price to get rid of the item.

Probably because people are really awful about removing their posts! But I understand the frustration about the price....people are always trying to haggle on evetything it seems.
