J2: Kijiji Idiots

So I was selling an item on Kijiji. For those who are unaware of what that is, it's a buy/sell/trade forum like Craigslist, which allows you to put up personal ads for buying and selling. So I have a set of headphones listed at about $420 which retails for significantly more than that, and is brand new. I love the headphones, but I had an unexpected bill to pay, so bye bye (Damn you, Canada Revenue Agency!)

I don't mind getting offers that are lower than my asking price. As long as it's reasonable, I will consider it. But there are some seriously retarded lowballers on the internet that are really hard to ignore.

$300 ill take it


That's $120 off. Really? I ignored the e-mail. I figured, if he doesn't get a reply, he'll get the idea. Then I get this 2 days later.

I ignored it again. Considering this was brand new with an asking price lower than retail, I consider this a major lowball. Then on the same day:

e-mail from: chadcute_16@xxxxxx.com
still available?

e-mail from: jordan.dino@gmail.com
Yes, it's still available.

e-mail from: chadcute_16@xxxxxx.com
what is the last price?

I don't know what that means, but I'm assuming he's asking how low I can go.

e-mail from: jordan.dino@gmail.com
$380.

e-mail from: chadcute_16@xxxxxx.com
$300 ill take it

Are you shitting me, son? I ignore your previous two offers, give you my lowest price and you continue to throw the same bullshit price at me?

e-mail from: jordan.dino@gmail.com
Nope. These are basically brand new. 

The next day:

e-mail from: chadcute_16@xxxxxx.com
ILL TAKE $300

For real!? You'll take $300 from where exactly? What an idiot. Assuming he meant to say that he'll take my headphones for $300, I basically told him to fuck off. I looked up this moron and found out he's a fellow Filipino. Go figure. We are cheap people. He is almost just as bad as my cousin who offered $5 for my HKS Intake. SMH.


One.
