Sometimes I reply to ads because I'm curious.

"My husband and I are knowledgeable, experienced chicken-keepers and competent builders. While it may not match your expectations, we are confident in this coop's capacity, durability and value."

Experienced chicken keepers = We bought a bunch of straight run chicks that ended up all roosters, and didn't realize it until they all started crowing and fighting. We don't want to try keeping chickens again.

Knowledgeable = We know when to give up.

Competent builders = the thing is still standing.

*I'm just guessing

I admit I might not have a clue to the value, but it it's anywhere near the asking price, I'm guessing an collectors auction house might be a better alternative...

Or someone is very optimistic...

Right. If you are looking for bargains on Craigslist, you likely don't fifty grand lying around the house. But I'll be honest, I'm hoping that they meant $50 bucks. That looks to be more reasonable. SMH.
 
So today I replied to a CL ad and made arrangements to swing by and purchase the item that was advertised, between 6:00-6:30PM it was to be a surprise for my daughter so the whole family was with me... We show up at the house and the local Po-Po is at the door talking to someone inside and giving me the stink eye for pulling in the driveway... So I get out of the car and explain that I was there in regards to a CL ad, and inquired if I should reschedule or stick around... The officer told me that would likely be a good idea to reschedule... LOL

I texted the person back to reschedule and have thus far not heard back...

I hope you weren't replying to the ad mentioned a few days ago. (garage sale ad with the "XXX" at the bottom.)

-- Just Teasing. The comments made about it on this thread gave me a good laugh.



Also glad you & your family are safe & didn't have to deal with whatever was going on.
