    People are NUTS!!!!!!!!!

    Here is a topic that should get lots of responses.....post some of the silliest,crazy,oddest and outlandish ads you have seen...here's one I found today on cl:

    6 dells fors sale, some missing cd drives, harddrives, power supplies. One tested and seems to be working. No keyboards,mice or wires included. They have the coa stickers but unsure if os is installed. $175.00 must pick up.

    I won't be wronged. I won't be insulted. I won't be laid a-hand on. I don't do these things to other people, and I require the same from them.” John Wayne-- The Shootist

    Dont have the The listing however read an ad awhile back. 50 laptops free to good home. May be able to fix maybe not some work. Will take 150 dollers for them all or 5 bucks each.
    I never even called about them. seemed like WOW stupid people. I was afraid I would get robbed or something if I went to get them.

    That works out to a little over $29.00 each. Yeah, from a scrapping perspective it's too steep. But for someone who might be able to repair them and get them running it would seem to be a pretty good deal. So I don't think this ad is all that nuts after all.

    Haha... It's too long of a drive from here to there. That and the fact that I don't know enough about computers to make a sound judgment. I'll just stick to scrapping for now.
