Doesn't seem unreasonable to me. Classified ads aren't about giving everyone a fair chance, they're a way of selling stuff quickly.

You could also give some guy at Sound on Sound a blowjob, and maybe they'd let you borrow the Oscar for a week.

That was really crude, sorry -- I don't make crude comments like that unless the planets are in a certain position, honestly!

Cool looking synth, too. I can understand the Orwellian undertone of the sore loser's reaction after looking at the pic. ;)

P.S. - apparently he actually was buying it as a surprise birthday gift for XXXX@XXX.net. But now that the surprise is spoiled, he's gonna keep it and just get you a DVD or something.
