Bizarre Craigslist interaction

He replied “no”

I told him I’m not negotiating, if he thinks $25 for 18 chicks is too much, please stop replying to my ads.

Maybe he thought you meant per Chick?

True. I'd keep the game going at this rate...if you have the patience.

He wants to know when he can pick them up now.

My ad is titled saying 18 chicks for $25, the description says it as well, my first reply to him said 18 for $25. I think he’s trying to haggle. My prices are already more than fair, so I’m not playing his game lol.

Ahh, okay, yeah. That's a really good price

I have 52 k dale eggs incubating. I had set a bunch of my snowie celadon project and some celadon tuxes to replace my sex links before I got the k dale eggs. I decided to sell most of the tux chicks (which are 100% celadon) and some of the snowie celadon project chicks (which were celadon carriers x pure celadons) and revisit hatching more after the k dale eggs hatch and I’ve decided which to keep. I listed these chicks, which 75% of the hens will lay blue, and the rest are guaranteed carriers, at my straight run, normal egg layer prices. It’s a good deal, idk why he’s such a problem.

He changed his tune real fast when I told him to stop emailing me. I’m pretty much the only one selling quail around here, the other ads, mostly old, look like Quail torture chambers. Why do people post animals in disgusting little cages with years of poop caked everywhere? All of my Quail ads are in lovely clean chips, fully feathered birds unless I’m homing an injured one. I’d be humiliated to post photos like I see for sale.

Because when they're the only one selling, people will be willing to turn a blind eye and buy. Usually once people like you start selling obviously better quality and health, they either fail or step up their game to match yours.

There’s a sad ad with a hatching time cage, all the birds are desperately trying to stuff themselves out the holes, multiple heads sticking out the same hole, it’s the worst. He’s asking $2 per adult, 5 months, ungendered. I can just imagine the poor hens in there, stuffed inside with all those boys, no where to stand or lay. I like when people ask me how I house my birds, before they commit to buying from me.

He’s agreed to the cost and says he will pick them up Saturday, I’ll let you guys know how it goes. @Ravenlover should be having their adventure in sales now, it’s about 4:15. Wait, 4:15 pacific, they’ve got some time still.
