Just in case you don’t want to zoom, this Craigslist ad says:
“Great MID-CENTURY MODERN DRIFTWOOD Tables!!! – $2000 (Hemet)
im selling two Mid-Century Modern Heavy Driftwood End Tables and a huge Driftwood Coffee table that are in perfect condition. The end tables are worth $1800 Or Best offer each and the coffee table is worth about $6000 or Best Offer . if you are interested, please call me at 951-658-4519 or email me at talo117@hotmail.com. The total price for them all is $10,000. Thanks, Ray.”
WHAT?
The price starts off at: $2,000.
Then goes to: $1,800 (end tables – “each” – so $3,600) and $6,000 (coffee table)
Which equals $9,600.
But somehow “the total price for them all is $10,000“.
WHAT?
So it costs $400 more dollars to buy them as a set than to buy them all separately? Is that a tip or something? Where did the initial $2,000 price come from? All are marked “or best offer” but the total for the set is not negotiable? Just so many questions…so many confusing feelings…
WTF.
Ray, we need to have a talk.
Number One: Where on earth are you getting these values for driftwood tables?
Number Two: Do you realize that you’re in Hemet and that this is Craigslist?
Number Three: What kind of crazy demented math equation are you using?
My best offer is $100 and a quick slap in the face. Craigslist is driving me bonkers!
