I sold 3-35x12.50R20 MT MTZ mud tires and one with a huge egg in it for $450. They had all of 3500 miles left on them.
I sold the DPF/DOC combo from my F250 for $210.
Traded a broken push mower for a perfectly fine 14x36 flat boat
Traded an inflatable pontoon boat for a brand new, huge jobox. Sold that thing for $550 after using it for two years. IIRC, it was like $625 brand new.
Traded a guy this pair of shitty boots (not even his size) for a walk behind edger
Was trying to sell my truck for a while for $22.5k. Had people try to trade me a jet ski, an old bass boat, a ranger, and people would email and offer shite like $14k saying they couldn't afford any more. Damn near everyone would email and ask what my bottom dollar was. My answer always was $22.5k, and if you ask again, the price will go up.
I told the jet ski guy, "So I'm supposed to trade you a $23,000 truck for a beat up piece of shite 1984 jet ski? Am I supposed to ride the thing to work now? Get the rocks out of your head and let me know when you have a serious offer"

Midget quarter car make an offer
or
This guy wants to trade a vaporizer for a truck

I am always amazed by the regular Sunday classifieds.
"Used crockpot and bundles of mismatched socks" for like 6 bucks. The ad is like 8 bucks to run

Another thing that pisses me off more than anything with these nuts is when they sell 33' tires or shotguns with 28' barrels.

I get 2 each day even though I don't want them. What's your address, and I'll start sending then your way?

No thanks. It's outdated before it's even printed

When I was a kid I traded a girl on the bus my three nickels for her two quarters I told her three was more than two and she was getting a good deal because she was cool

Somehow I dont think "yu" is a typo.
Trade is not legit. You never ever trade a snake killing gun for an actual snake.

Just thought of another one.
The guy that was trying to get rid of the cypress siding on here and was going to burn it until a bunch of people started showing interest then it was for sale. Thread must have gotten deleted. KR was mad.

I bought a boat of LA sportsman for $18,500. I sold it a little less than 2 years later for $22,500. I actually got it for a steal and the price I sold it for was the cheapest around for that type of boat. But I always laugh about it. You've got a horseshoe up your arse if you actually MAKE money owning a boat.

When I was a kid I bought/traded all of my pellet guns and .22s by catching snakes and selling them. Most of the rich kids would trade their beeman, Sheridan or Benjamin's for one speckled king snake. Going from a crossman to one of those was awesome.

Had one genius on the local radio show called the "swap shop" that was selling two window unit air conditoners. He wanted $150 a piece or you could have both of them for $350. Lol.
