Yea, there is one that ruins everything. Hopefully you'll never run into another like this one.
The biggest problems for me are when I'm selling and mostly it's aggravating not devastating.
1. I don't give my address in the ad (that's like saying here's what you'll find at this address come steal it). But I know people want to know if it's North or south of town as that can be 20 miles difference and with gas prices... So especially on low priced items I give a major intersection 1/2 mile from me but some people seem unable to handle anything but a street address so they call to get that and then say it's too far. 2. They seem excited about the item get my actual address and ask when they can come by--but for some reason it feels more like when will you be away--then they say they'll call me back tomorrow or something never to be heard from again. I always say I'm in and out--just give me a call before you head this way to make sure I'm home. 3. The ones that say they'll come out at X time and never show. 4. The ones that call about really cheap items and want to ask a thousand questions. 5. The ones that call about a big higher dollar item that needs to be seen to be appreciated and the very first thing they ask is what's the lowest you'll take.
But for all the problems many just show up, hand over the asking price and are overjoyed.
Buying can be good too. I have to figure they might not want to haggle and sometimes I don't even ask if they'll take less. Just yesterday I went to pick up 2 rugs for free. Someone had done a no show on the fellow before me. He was moving and cleaning out a storage building. He just started giving me stuff. I got several somewhat valuable antiques as well! Recently I purchased a bunch of lawn equipment from some folks that were moving. She said if she found anything else that went with it she'd call me. Yea, right. :) She did!!! Brought me about $100 worth of stuff--she lived quite a distance away and I'd have gladly driven back for them but she insisted on bringing it into town and I met her at a Walmart.

Today's Featured Article - Field Modifications (Sins of the Farmer) - by Staff. Picture a new Chevrolet driving down the street without it's grill, right fender and trunk lid. Imagine a crude hole made in the hood to accommodate a new taller air cleaner, the fender wells cut away to make way for larger tires, and half of a sliding glass door used to replace the windshield. Top that off with an old set of '36 Ford headlight shells bolted to the hood. Pretty unlikely for a car... but for a tractor, this is pretty normal. It seems that more often than not they a
