I always hate selling stuff - even when you think you are giving someone a good deal and just want to get rid of something people you give you a hard time...
My best story is one time my neighborhood was having a garage sale and i had a pretty big dining table in my garage that I had replaced with a new one. The old one was still pretty nice but I just got tired of it. I really did not want to go though the hassle of selling it so I just put it in the driveway and said free to good home.
The next thing I know I get a knock on my door and there is a pregnant lady asking if she can have the table. I look at her and say sure the sign says free to good home. She explains that someone wrote on the table that the table is theirs and they will pick it up after 5:00. It was about 10:00 am in the morning. She explains that her husband is in the military away in Iraq and she is starting a new family. Sounds like just the person I would want to have the table. So I say I have no idea who this person is that wrote the note and load it on her truck.
So around 5:00 I get knock on my door and this lady who left the note starts screaming at me on how could I give away "her" table. She left a note on it and it was hers. I told her she never knocked on my door and how would i know if she would even come back. She was furious..... screaming swear words at me and I am thinking all i wanted to do was give away a table for free...
