DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME AND MIND

That one always cracks me up. A normal for sale thread gets hundreds of views before it ever sells. That's 100s of users who took a look out of curiosity or interest, thought about it, and decided to move on.
Now the seller gets lots of email picture requests by users who take a look, think about it, and decide to move on. What did the seller think was going to happen?
1
If I see any one of those lines I move on the the next ad, the seller is guaranteed to be more trouble than the gun is worth
6
If I see an ad without pictures I move on to the next - ain't got time for their shit... An imgur account is free and there's a handy copy code for forum linking.
If you're worried about people stealing your pics then put a fucking watermark through it.

"How do I get water into the computer, dummy!"

7/10, no capslock and everything is spelled right so I gotta dock a couple points
3
pretty much.
no pictures = not worth my time. if it's not worth your time to take a photo of the thing you're selling, not worth my time to chase you down and give my email to ask for photos.

Honestly I expected asking to be at least four figures, not bad.

how do none of these boomers know how to embed photos

It’s super easy on cgn, it’s literally no different than posting a photo here.
1
I don’t think they’ve found us here! (Hopefully)
3
I've seen one or two, there's been an increase in the number of posts in all caps with half the words misspelled
5
The space and exclamation mark is also a dead giveaway !
6
How do you post a photo here? I can't get CGN to display my photos.
I feel bad.
1
The little image of a tree when you look in the typing section click it and copy the link to your image.
2
I don't think that works with imgur.
1
Got it! Thanks!

If you're not a subscriber to their services, then you cant embed an image. But you can embed a link to an imgur album!

That isn’t true. I am able to link directly to images with [IMG] tags. I can’t upload them directly to CGN but I can link directly to images hosted at tinypic, etc. Imgur sucks. The difficulty comes in finding a place to host that offers a direct link to the image and not a “viewer” link. There is no problem posting images to CGN.

Or for about $50 more I can get a new one, factory fresh...
9
I mean $50 on a $120 purchase is quite significant.
3
The cost of a warranty
1
Also the cost of not taking chances on whether or not this guy turned the damned thing into a bomb by accident.
2
"fits 2 3/4 and 3” then why not say it fits 3. If it fits 3 it fits everything smaller than 3.
Unless he means it's made for 2 3/4 and he thinks it fits 3 which, maybe it does, but there's no enough space for the hull to open up so you're forcing the entire contents of the shell through a smaller opening which is B A D

Nobody mentioned 2 5/8 tho

Every line of the description raises more questions than it answers
He's just trying to pique your interrest
Please tell me you think of Calvin and Hobbes every time you say this...
