Best Craigslist add ever...

This is how I feel sometimes about things I sell too.

Sorry, I sort of disagree. I have had simular issues. People are just dumb.

I'm half tempted to just email him from a boguss address and say something like, "hey, fuck your blocks man, you have any wood for sale, and if so, will you help me build something?"

LOL

That was awesome.

Not the best way to sell stuff, but definitely funny

:rofl that just made my day. But Zion think about it you know you'll get people who'll ask so "are they sturdy?" "Can I use these as foundation for my_____" Maybe it's me but I don't see the problem, I'm just curious as to why he has all of them if he doesn't know how to build. Maybe he was going to have something built and ran outta money or changed his mind

I have sold many many items here and ebay and other places...and one thing I have learned is allways hear and listen to what potential buyers questions and conserns are peroid. Other wise if you just want to sell them there is a better way of getting your point across than a handfull of cursewords. I for one would rather pay .75 cents more per brick at home depot than to dill with this type of person. I know it can get a little irritating but thats the cost of selling items on line..or anyware for that matter.. PEople want as much info as possible..

Take this same senario to a car dealership and your asking you sales man about MPG..options included what type of gas, what type of suspension and so on and he tells you, Look just by the F'ing car I dont care what you do with it I am just hear to sell F'cars you f'ing ediot..

How many people would find that funny and purchase a car from him even if he was cutting his commision just a little bit to get the F'ing car sold....FOOD FOR THOUGHT.

Rich...you're oh so missing the point. And it's cute. BTW, I might need your spraying expertise.

Sorry brother. That was exactly his point. It was a cinder/cement block not a spaceship that flys to mars. His point is, it doesn't take a rocket scientist to know what these are used for.

And I can only imagine all the morons who refuse to think for themselves (and yes there are lazy people like that) asking this poor bastard not only what they are used for, but would he build it for them.
[[on a side note and answer to the question as to why this guy has them, probably had a wall built for him and this was the leftover materials, hence why he doesn't know how to build something himself otherwise he would have done so himself]]

Zion - Going to a car dealership or an electronics store to buy a computer is an entirely different scenario, and requires more detail then buying a cement block that has few uses.
