    I always find it interesting and a bit annoying when I read a sellers opening statement that reads as..”I don’t really know if I want to do this”, “this hurts me to do”, or “it pains me to do”, etc. why do people have to justify a sale? Sell or don’t sell your machine. Any reason you have is no ones business and we honestly don’t care. If there is a buyer interested then fine. If not move on. Just find this hilarious, like they’re fishing for a higher price by letting you feel they don’t have to sell it

    I get people sell when they don’t want to. I just don’t need your damn life story. It’s business, sell it or don’t

    Quoted from Yelobird:

    Would it sell faster if they said "I hate this boring ass game it was a waste of money so I need to find a sucker fast!"? Sometimes people run out of real-estate and truly do need to unwillingly sell a game for an unforeseen opportunity.

    Someone recently did post an ad with this
    Method. If I was in the market I’d buy from him for sure. It was great honesty!

    Quoted from Daditude:

    Sales are built on stories. I have been in sales for over 25 years.
    I guess you can just NOT buy their product (s)....

    yes i get that. But please don’t tell me I’m testing the waters or I really don’t know if I want to sell it. So why are you listing it for sale?

    Quoted from Yelobird:

    Read a few FS adds. If the seller does not give Some reason they are selling the First question always asked is "Why are you selling it!" Not sure how this could be so annoying really?

    Like TBL. No reason needed, you want to make a profit we get that and it’s your choice
