I dont trust those ways of selling things (I.e. craigslist, yahoo ads, etc).

But those rigs are way too vaguely deescribed to tell if its a good machine or not.

For a second I thought you were talking about a different kind of lucky.

MMMmmm let me think about this and let me get back to you...ok NOT!!!!!!

what a waste of ttime that was sending an email like that!!

Good bye
As much as I'd like to ram a cactus up her backside... Though I could becuase I now know her first and last names, and I know about where she lives..... I am going to be civil. Here's my response:
I'm really sorry that you had to say that in such a negative way. I could've sworn you said that they HAD to go. Meaning that you were willing to make a good deal on them.
Or what was your meaning when you typed "ALL computer stuff MUST go!!!! "?

-I'm hoping you're not always so negative

-******.

No reason you can't take advantage of that though. After all when he goes to jail for beating her to death he won't be using the PC after all :)

WF: $10
(BTW, I think this is a rant now...)

Heh... you won't believe this next part:
do you think i was born yesturday?? of course i'm not going to sell one of his computers for $10 !!!!

You are the only one that has emailed me with such a stupid offer for the two better machines!!

Just because i am a woman, doesn't mean i'm stupid enough to sell a machine for such a silly offer!!

And then you have the nerve to email me again saying that you and your dad are interested in them.... C'mom!!!! What do you take me for!!!\

GOOD DAY TO YOU.
Re:(Shoot, stupid MSN, if you reply to a junk e-mail(bulk) then it doesn't save a draft of what you send back...)

x2. Dont make a jackass offer like that, and get disgusted when she returns a jackass response. That would be getting lucky. That'd be stealing.

HAng on, my response was that i wasn't sure whether she wanted to just get rid of it for SOME amount of money, or actually wanted a good deal on them.

Surely if she just wanted to get rid of them, she'd toss them in the trash, rather than go through the effort of itemizing their specs and posting an internet ad, eh?

With the advent of the internet, everyone thinks everything they have is gold. You're not likely to get anything worth over 100.00 for 10. :/

Ah, true, but I can hope...though it's seemed to've gotten a person pissed at me. Looks like I'll have to get a job for the last month of summer break, I shoudl be able to get a better system at least... and a desk for it...
