Ok, so the Bug is posted for sale on a couple sites, and I've just gotten my second of a type of email that annoys the hell out of me. They read essentially like this:
"Hi, what is you bottom line price for your beetle? I'm very interested."
Gee you can't be bothered to even come look at the car, or ask questions about it before trying to get me to *tell* you what the minimum I'll take for it is. Yeah, Because you've clearly shown you're *way* more interested than the people who contacted me trying to come take a look at it, or asked me a bunch of questions about it.
To me this is extremely rude. When I'm interested in a car, I either try and go see it ASAP, or if it is too far from me I try and get a good impression of it from the seller by asking questions. I don't try and insult the person by immediately trying to get their best deal.
So because that's how I feel, they both got (and all future ones will get) the same response:
"My rock bottom price for people who don't try and look at the car and don't ask about it but just ask me that question straight out? Its the price you saw on the ad."
