    If you received 25-30 emails with people asking you to be their GPS
    and roadmap would you be happy as Oprah to respond to every one
    with those details?

    With the resources available on the net the seller could take it that you're
    being lazy and that you could do your part by looking up that info.

    He could have hit DELETE but chose to reply.

    Consider yourself lucky?

    I understand your point of view, but it would appear that the seller doesn't. Looks like he just wanted to slap up an ad on CL and do the least amount of customer service.

    When I've been a buyer on CL I've paid people extra to meet me at the highway exit nearest me.
    This way I don't have to drive out of my way to get the item. Who's gonna turn down extra money?

    When I've been a seller on CL I've arranged the "meet and greet/transaction" in the parking lot
    of a strip mall nearest me.

    If the buyer/seller doesn't agree to those terms then it's no deal. Never had any bad experiences.

    I don't think I'm going to load up a game by myself to take it to the nearest highway exit. You want it come get it and we'll both load it up.

    NOT PINS!

    I've never bought a pin on CL, nor would I expect anyone to load their's up and bring it to my exit.

    Sorry, should have made it extra clear, all my CL purchases so far have been NON-PIN related.
    My bad..

    Quoted from pindevil:

    As far as the seller being rude or weird or whatever, I don't care because I just want the machine.

    YOU SIR ARE MY HERO!!!

    This is where it starts and ends for me, because if it's the one I want I'm gonna do everything
    in my power to be the one to drive away with the machine.

    Quoted from 85vett:

    NY2Colorado said:White people problems.......
    Are you F-ing kidding me. When are people going to start putting race into EVERYTHING.

    C'mon, lighten up. It's obvious to me he's joking.

    Look on youtube at how many videos are "things white people say", "things black people say",
    etc, etc, etc.

    We're all different races. Race is part of the human condition.

    The phrase "white people problems", is that REALLY a bad thing to say? I'm thinking there
    are a whole lot more offensive things that are said by people, to me this isn't one of them.

    But that's just me. Your mileage may vary.
