Giving something away is a pain in the ass...

Posted by Guigue (aka Guigue) Feb 26 '10, 11:46

I put an classified ad to give away a semi-functional printer I have laying around, and people are being real annoyances.

"How much is an ink cartridge and where can I find them?", simple "I'm interested" with 4 spelling mistakes in 3 words, "I'm a single mom and I really need this printer for my child", "I need this machine please call me at this number between 4PM and 6 PM".

People suck

    - Maybe, to be honest, I don't have a car and wanted someone to just pick it up. - Guigue Feb 26, 12:04
- This one is the correct option. Tape a sign to it that says "it works". It will be gone in an hour. -- nm - Fuzzy Feb 26, 11:54 2
  - I'm amazed when I see furniture on the street and how quick it vanishes. -- nm - MDH Feb 26, 11:57 1
