Quoted from whthrs166:I have never used OBO when selling a machine. I don't like the underlying message it sends to potential buyers. (I want to get rid of this thing fast) It used to be that Posting on CL was bad enough (sending the dump message) The way I look at it is, if you put OBO on your ad, you are inviting all offers no matter what those offers are.
Agreed. “OBO” is implied anyway unless you say “firm.” In which case you’ll still probably get offers, but at least you warned them so you’re less likely to have a thread started about you on Pinside.
