Make me want to put on a red hoodie and throw puppies in the Han.
(Mind you I'm hungover and it's 1:30 pm)
Today, this moron that wanted to buy something from me. He texts me saying he wants to meet at Coex. He gives me a specific location, etc, I even leave 30 mins earlier for HIS convenience. Text him before I get off the subway and he says he's waiting. I arrive and this spineless troll isn't anywhere to be found, but has the audacity to send me a text telling me something totally different about the location after we agreed on a location.
rant over.
Anyone else had something similar happen to them? |

Yes, people under 30 are generally morons. I'm guessing he's under 30. Either that or he's a lifelong neo-burnout. |

I recently sold something via craigslist and got very odd emails as well. One guy offered me %40 of the asking price I'd posted. Absurd.
The flakiness that exists in the US & craigslist lives on in SK I'm afraid. |

| I've picked up quite a few items off Craigslist Seoul. Most sellers have been good. One guy canceled on me 3 times. I would have said screw the deal but my wife really wanted his blender. The 4th time he showed. My wife makes really good smoothies! |

Maybe you were over charging. Why get your panties in a twist over someone giving it a shot? |

Because the offer was absurd and I sold it for the original amount I asked for. Who's panties are in a bunch? |

I bought a new blender for about 40K I believe and would not mess around like this buying a used one. Just my way of doing things.
Back in the States now, I have to watch my budget - but did not while I was working overseas. |

| You could get a cheap new blender for 40k, but a cuisinart or the like go for about 100k. |
