    i think she will likely train the bunnies and rat-dogs to jump on horsey and do tricks.

    why didn't you try to sell it for 15 or 20 bucks?

    Don't give ur shit away for free to people u don't know. People scour Craigslist for cheap stuff for the sole purpose of selling it to make a profit. These people make a living doin that too.

    why is everyone so against giving away free stuff?

    I exclusively give stuff away for free, especially when it comes to baby stuff. I've given away mountains of baby clothes, blankets, toys, etc. Some people out there really need that stuff so it makes me feel nice and warm inside. I use freecycle.org instead of Craigslist.

    I hooked a girl up with pretty much everything she needed for the first year of her baby's life through freecycle.

    It also makes me feel generous and superior to people who sell their stuff :)

    Maybe the world wouldn't be as fucked up if more magical vaginas were in charge.

    There are a lot of flakes on Craigslist...and a lot of scammers. You would be surprised by how hard it is to give away a 360 gallon fish tank. I answered so many emails. Then people would finally come over and say "Oh...that's waayy too big for me. I was expecting it to be smaller" I described it in detail and provided pics. What the hell were they expecting?


    One thing I had a lot of fun with was emptying my garage. I was still using facebook at the time so I listed 36 items I wanted to get rid of. Good stuff too. Like chain saws, large tool boxes, power tools, all kinds of stuff. Totally free. But....it has to be gone in 24 hours and I'm not delivering it. First come, first serve. Almost all of it was gone the next day.

    Me (February 8): Hey,
    did you train any animals on the horse yet? where do you do your shows at?

    Her (February 10): Some of my animals have worked shows in Disneyland in Florida and Bush Gardens in Virginia and there are 12 Java Doves in a magician show based in Pennsylvania but he travels all over. His name is Alex Treveau and I can send you his website where you can see some of my doves in action. I sold Alex his original 6 breeders and taught him how to raise his own doves... he does a fantastic act with them. I don't have his card here at computer but will get it and send you the address so you can see his website. I also train Doves to do Wedding and Baptismal Release Flights. Your horse will be in a cowboy act for Rabbits and teacup chihuahuas, a takeoff of the Toy Story theme but in a wild west town setting. They will have cowboy hats and 6 guns on and ;your horse will be used by many of the critters. Getting them on the horse is very easy,,, all food incentive. Getting them to go through trap doors, climb ladders, navigate tubes and jump through
    hoops, also food incentive. But getting them to fall over and play dead when I point my finger at them and say BANG,,, now that is the real trick. I will send you the site shortly when I dig out Alex's card.

    I don't understand why people have such A problem with people taking stuff for free off of craigslist and selling it. Just like people that go to yard sales and get stuff for like 25 cents a piece and reselll that stuff.

    One time, my boyfriend had this job for this lady cleaning out her stuff and she let him have whatever he wanted out of all of it and we made over $300 off of that stuff and we still have stuff to go through and post on craigslist. lol

    I have taken and resold plenty of stuff from the free section on craigslist... but I have posted tons of mostly kid stuff to give away, but we have gone through stuff and just made big free piles to let people go take whatever they want.. those piles don't last any longer than an hour sitting there and whatever is leftover and not taken just gets donated to a thrift store. I think a queen sized mattress and boxspring is the HARDEST thing to get rid of on craigslist...

    How about donating the rocking horse to a children's home?

    I mean the kids might still be abused by some wacko there. BUT atleast they'd have a nice rocking horse to sit on..

    (I was going to say, it might be a bit painful for them to sit on a wooden rocking horse... but I decided not to. :eek: )

    I'm impressed that anyone can train rabbits like that. Maybe she can train mine not to piss on the carpet when I let him out of the cage.

    i posted some coins for sale and this one guy responded and tried to talk me down in price. i wouldn't go any lower and he started trying to pressure me and get all pissy at me for not selling them. :p

    then another time i did sell some coins to this guy and he was really nice. he even gave me five bucks more than i ask. a few weeks later i was trying to redial a number in my phone and i just tried this number to see if it was the right one and it was him. i said "oh sorry wrong number" and he was a huge dick about it and told me not to ever call this number again and all this shit. i was taken aback and i told him he was a dickhead or an asshole or something.
