I have done pretty well with my "sales" on Cr*ig's list but didn't get too many bites on the sink or faucet. I took it off for a couple days then re-posted for the amount I wanted for both but reworded the ad to read granite sink with free faucet Jim's idea). I got a call from someone yesterday who wanted to come right over & look at it. He showed up & my "6th sense" kicked into action telling me Snake with a capital S!!!!! He turned out to be one of those "slumlords" that owned a bunch of apartment buildings. The sink was still attached to the counter so he started mumbling about how he could break it taking it apart etc, etc & then had the nerve to offer me $40.00!!
My answer was absolutely not.........& after some haggling back & forth we agreed upon $75.00. At that point Jim walked out of the house & said he could cut it out of the counter for him if he wanted. I'm shooting the hairy eyeball at Jim mouthing "No way!!!" Meanwhile Mr Slumlord pulls a huge wad of money from his pocket & counts out $70,00 & then says he only had 4 ones would I settle for that!! I immediately said give me another $20 I'll go get you change!!
I almost came back out with 4 ones but decided not to stoop to his level!!!!!
