    Just to be clear I was being sarcastic lol. As a selling point very cool is not high on the list of attributes I would list when trying to sell something.

    I know! I, unlike Sheldon Cooper of the Big Bang Theory show, get sarcasm! It is interesting what some people think will help sell their items at any price! Have you ever seen the show Flea Market Flip? People make some pretty ugly things and then price them at hundreds of dollars!

    Ads like this always gets me going. http://rockford.craigslist.org/atq/3793212942.html If you don't have a picture of what you are selling, don't post a picture. A picture shows condition and a lot more.

    I don't understand posting a picture that is similar to what you have but completely different

    http://kansascity.craigslist.org/atq/3858091118.html - Not buying at this price
    http://kansascity.craigslist.org/atq/3837959424.html - not buying this one either
    http://kansascity.craigslist.org/atq/3805005885.html - despite this awful picture, I'd consider this one. Only one issue - DH!!!!!
