You might want to adopt a friendlier tone if you really wish to sell the car. People tend to just move on after being told multiple times not to waste the seller's time. There are a lot of cars out there, and life's too short to waste MY time dealing with a crankypants.

I dont agree the seller provided several photos that are clear and clearly described the car and what he expects. he also provided information as to where he might bargain and where he would not. He kept it light by injecting some humor as well

IMHO the car is priced well and presented well the seller has expressed his expectations and left little to question in his ad.

This is a far cry from many ads here or CL that show crappy photos and provide little info...

Oh, it's a pretty good ad once you get around the tone.

How can you tell his tone of voice? I sold many cars on CL and the questions and offers are ridiculous. I think his ad is clear and it states exactly what his intentions are. This eliminates a lot of tire kickers and idiots offering half of asking price.

It might also eliminate a few legitimate buyers who just decide not to bother. When I'm selling something, I'll politely listen to any offer and decline it if it's too low. Doesn't take much time.

Thank you. Your comments have been noted. I have edited my ad; asking to spare my time only once should be enough right?
