I hate people

At the very least I hate their lack of attention to detail. Like how I have a flip-up touchscreen radio up for sale and I say I’d be interested in trades for a regular god damned radio with “...AM/FM, Bluetooth, USB at the least”

-Buffer-

Because those are just some of the features my radio has and I would like to be somewhat even on the trade. I’m not going to trade straight across for your base model JVC with a headphone jack. I have a fucking iPhone 7 I can’t even use the goddamned headphone jack

I’m not gonna trade for your 10 year old, scratched to SHIT Pioneer just because it has a USB port. Did you even ever read the manual? For Christ’s sake it says right there “iPod control only”

I’m also not going to trade for the OEM radio from your 2015 Altima. What the fuck good will that do me?!

The ad(s) state explicitly what I would like in trade for this functional, actually nice radio that is not good in the cramped cabin of a Camaro (there I met my quota for the day).

And by Bluetooth I don’t mean “I use this for my bludtooth[sic] with my phone”

An actual photo I received when I asked if their trade had Bluetooth. Fuck people. Fuck online marketplaces. And fuck this fucking radio.

Just make it easy on yourself and sell it for cash. Get a radio you like.

I’d just stop offering trades.

My stereo in my truck supports Bluetooth as long as you plug in this little dongle...

....any guesses at which point it got lost when it was sold, bought by CarMax, then sold to me?

Yeah I’d save yourself the headache and not offer trades and just get whatever cash you can for it. That’s not exactly a high end unit so I imagine it’s going to attract some interesting characters unfortunately. Find yourself a decent single din unit from Crutchfield and call it a day. I installed a Pioneer DEH-S6010BS the other day and it had everything you were looking for.

I guess I just really want to know how many people have asked if you are trading the Camaro (sorry, they probably ask about the Camero) for a radio, and is a bluetooth cassette adapter a good trade option?

you young whipperschnappers and yer blueteeth and i-whatsits, back in my day all you had was AM radio, and you’d lose connection by just drivin’ under a bridge or through a tunnel

I’ve got an old 8-track with a Creedence Clearwater Revival cartridge stuck in it. Could be a good trade if you really like Who’ll Stop the Rain.

Surprisingly none. And if I could get my hands on a 1993 GM radio and a bluetooth cassette adapter I would consider it for sure

HAH. My 2017 Ram has spoiled the fuck out of me. If I can’t make hands-free calls or dictate texts, I want nothing to do with it

All I really care about is having a hands-free feature, even if I have to let my phone handle most of the hands-free. So long as I can pipe phone audio to my speakers, since my Droid Turbo’s speaker is barely audible, even at max volume, over the drone of my engine and road noise.

I have the 1994 Cadillac up for sale and, much to my surprise, I haven’t gotten a single 420 offer.

I gotta get this car sold though. I can’t register the Camaro until it’s gone

Please, go the fuck away Eldorado

well, I didn’t know for sure they existed, but it turns out Amazon actually does sell a bluetooth cassette adapter:

https://www.amazon.com/ION-Audio-Cassette-Adapter-Bluetooth/dp/B00I3YLHAC

So I guess it’s 50% of what you need.
