For Sale: Blue ansul extinguisher

[Lynn Eades]

Hi Brunno, and welcome.
Chris there was nothing wrong with your first post. It was quite neutral.
Just my opinion.
When we are trying to sell stuff at a swap meet or what ever event, and someone offers an opinion about a price, and the do it in a tactless way, it might send one or two potential buyers off into the sunset, but a negative post on this close knit forum, to all intents and purposes, has effectively closed down the possibility of the sale.
To be fair to each other, I would think that if the listing seems reasonable (ie not misleading) then if the price is too high (personal veiw) then probably we should not comment other than (as has already been suggested) by pm.
Just another (fair minded??) opinion.
Not wishing to offend anyone.

Tony, I too have responded to vendors by PM whther it be eBay, MLU or other places to "correct" them on misleading or incorrect info as well.
Sometimes I have been ignored, other times thanked but many times told to piss off and mind my business.

I have already sold the extinguisher. When i wrote the price, i checked an old one who was sold for a price higher than mine, few months ago.

So, i don't want give my stuff and i know that people always negociate the price. If i had wrote 40$ dollars, i am sure that someone would buy the item for 15$.

You don't like price !! Offer are welcome !! Better than write bad comment on a post.

Link above shows the same thing without the bracket for the same price, so the original asking was not out of line. And since you can lower your price once listing an item as opposed to raising it during the negotiation phase, you are right Brunno....someone would want it for less than the price of postage.

Well done Bruno. Great result!

Bruno, you nailed it.
I do not believe I would be out of line writing for everyone in this thread in sending you anything but good wishes. I have met both Chris and Robin personally a number of times over the past few years. My own experience is they are salt of the earth folks who would give you the shirt off their back to help you with a project, or any other need for that matter.
.... In spite of their parsimonious evaluation of your cold weather Ansul, which they were able to articulate themselves.

Brunno: Don't feel bad if you do not understand some of Micheal's larger $5 words. English is my first language and I had to look up parsimonious. His command of the English language also caused me to look up "busman's holiday" a couple days ago.
