I recently bought a new Xbox One, so I've been looking to sell my old 360 system. I have it listed on Craigslist and Facebook Marketplace for a pretty reasonable price.

Today, Tanishia the BBW texts me saying that she's interested but wants me to FaceTime her to prove that the console is in working condition before she drives to meet up with me. Sure, no problem. She sees it and agrees to meet up to buy it.

I drive 10 minutes south into the Brookwood area of ATL to meet this lady. I show her the console and the games. She takes one look at it and goes, "oh, I thought you was selling an Xbox One. Sorry, I'mma have to pass."

I stared at this fat bitch for a good minute and said, "you realize 'Xbox 360' was literally in the title of the ad, right? And that you literally saw the console when I FaceTimed you?"

She goes "oh shite I sorry."

fricking dumb lazy bitch wasted a good 30 minutes of my time. I guess there's a reason why these people are so poor they have to buy old used shite off Craigslist. Selling shite online is such a PITA.

You should have been packing heat and forced the sale at gunpoint. Is it a crime to coerce someone to buy something at the point of a gun?

I sold an Xbox one. Got called me when he was 15 minutes late saying he was 20 minutes away. He showed 2 hours late. I will never do it again.

That’s why you trade it in to Gamestop for significantly less, to save you the hassle.

I just give away my old TVs and shite to young folks. I get more out of that than a few bucks obtained from some idiot from Craigslist.

How much were you selling that for?

I probably wouldn't pay more than like $30 for that.

The guy who was supposed to put a gun to your head and rob you was a no-show.

You’re the one trying to sell an Xbox 360 and calling this person poor. Put that shite in your attic or donate it.

I realize you’re in a large city but does Atlanta not have suburbs?

My small town has three local marketplaces that you have to be a member of to sell or buy on. If you frick around too much you’ll get banned from the group. I’ve had much better luck buying and selling on them than Facebook market place
