    I once had a guy offer me his wife in trade for a dishwasher I was selling, plus a case of Blue Ribbon.

    Everyone prefers a quiet dishwasher.
    Every love that made me lose my reasoning. Every chord that made my conscience ache. Every day spent counting hours. Well, none of them comes close to singing back a song inside my head.

    I remember calloused hands and paint-stained jeans, and I remember safe-as-houses self-belief.

    Someone offered me a cheap used cellphone for a $650 BMX race bike.

    I told him to use it to call a bike store and ask them how much my bike cost new.

    I didn't even reply.

    I have pretty much given up on selling things there. I still cruise for things to buy, but even that proves difficult at times.

    I had a guitar up for $1200.

    Guy emails me with an offer of $800.

    I tell him that's too little and offer to meet him halfway at $1000.

    He counters with $650.


    Negotiations.... yer doin' it wrong.

    There's been too many to even remember. One that sticks out in my mind was a guy wanted to trade me an Epi LP Special II (The $119 one), a Crate DFX 1x10 amp and 3 Dano pedals for a Gibson Les Paul Studio.

    I had posted a guitar for sale ( old series 10 lp copy) for sale or trade with Case. This guy shows up to my dorm room and has 50.00 bucks and says he has a "PITT BULL PUPPY" in his truck. I said I live in the dorms i cant keep a dog. Then he said how about 2 snow tires. I said I DONT HAVE A CAR!!

    that story always makes me smile

    dude wanted to know if i'd trade my Japanese Jaguar with duncan pickups for the lowest-end Kirk Hammett LTD...

    I said "My guitar's worth like $700, yours is almost worth $200. I'd be an idiot if i took that trade."

    He replied "Yeah but that would be pretty cool for me lol"

    I have had pretty good luck on there but you have to have your dumbass filter set to max before you even begin...

    I like the way that guy thought.
