As a long time Craigslist user, I am thankful for the free service that the site provides. Having completed many transactions, I, naturally, have encountered more than a few oddballs and louts through the site. The “WTB” advertisement showcased here is an example of a buyer stooping to a whole new level of idiocy in a pathetic attempt to get a Sony Ericsson Xperia X10.

Maybe he is a comedian, and the post was meant to be funny –after all, the title of his ad does not even state that he is buying, and he is grossly misinformed too. The Xperia X10 retails for $550 Canadian and goes for about $400 brand new on Craigslist. Rather than pony up the expenses, the joker here thinks that he can perform a car salesman trick to belittle you into selling your “overpriced” X10 for close to 40% less than it is worth.

On a slow Saturday evening, I thought that I would share this humorous story. The original post has been flagged and removed, but it is immortalized here forever.
