I always make sure to preemptively insult them when they do.
Then they'll reply with "it's not really worth X" and you go "then why the shit do you even want it?"
People are awful.

Well that's what they get for listing a crackhead price in the first place. Flag any crackheads you see on CL.
Most people do post a price higher than they actually expect to get (for example, selling a car for $1500 and taking $1000)

Right! I love the conversation too.
Whats the lowest youll take?
Well, Whats your offer?
$1,000
It's listed for $6,000 and thats below value already.
Well, whats the lowest youll take?
$6,000
So youre really going to walk away from a good $1,000 in cold hard cash!?!
YES
Wow man, just wow. why don't you fuck my mother and kick my dog while your at it.

The flip of this is when people want to charge you the money they "have in" the car. Sorry, but your ten year old modded car is not worth $5k over blue book.

Nice-to-your-face flakes are deceptively much worse than pure assholes because they waste way more of your time.

yes, true, but don't try to offer me $1000 on an item I have listed for $6000 that's legitimately worth $5500

$7,000 from a Nigerian prince...
I took this one off for a while and just re-listed it, but last time I got an offer for $5k right when I listed it and I wanted to hold out for $5500 (im in it for 5 so id prefer to not break even)

I'll give you $250....
just kidding, I don't need a mic.
But it's funny how they think waiting longer will make their low ball suddenly seem better...

But the car is worth $10k and I put another $10k in mods so clearly it's worth $25k now.

Just take the $5000
Are you a flipper or dealer?
You should be able to sell the car within two weeks. Cars can often sell in hours on CL.
What kind of car is it? How many miles?

He seriously got pissed that you wouldn't take a grand for a six grand car? I mean, it would be bad enough if he offered 5 then got mad, but he must be beyond stupid.

This ones actually a motorcycle. And its a fairly custom built one so it plays to a limited crowd. That $5k offer was months ago and I don't have the guys # anymore.
I'm also trying to sell a dilapitated DSM but I just listed that a few days ago and some dickdouche keeps flagging it as spam, but I got a fair offer on it just got to wait for the guy to show up.

It's actually a fully custom built hard tail motorcycle, but yea. I mean, I added the last line to keep it interesting, but everything else was true. I also had a guy offer me the frame to a 49 Shovelhead Harley, just the frame, nothing else, without a title... Yea bro; NO.

It takes more than one flag to remove an ad. 10-10000 different people had to flag in order to take it down.
Specialty shit doesn't do well on CL. Custom shit does better on cycle trader or the forums.

well it's been flagged and removed twice within a matter of hours of posting, and there is nothing "prohibited" in the ad so...

On the other hand there are the guys that list the car a 10,000 when its really a $5,000 car if that and a super rigid if you ask for $100 off.
Those are also the same guys that sell rotted out, not running, sat for 6 years mk4 Supras for $24,000......assholes i swear....
Though your completely right. I've had 16-19 year old kids (emphasis on KIDS ) come up to me ,dead serious too, ask me if they could buy my Evo 8 off me for 5grand...............do most teens not have a concept of money.
