Why is it that when you are trying to sell something, a boat, etc. you can tell everything about it, what it has, price, etc. and people still call and e-mail questions about it and then never reply back when you give them information. It was all written is plain english, why do people bother replying to the ad when they aren't really interested. I've gotten 20 replies on my 2002 Ranger and after I respond to them they never respond back this really bugs me. How about you?

it's like being a car salesman.....lots of people want to look and ask questions. Sometimes to just compare with other dealers

If I respond to your question, do I have to buy your boat?

With an asking price like that, maybe they think that you can't be serious!!!!

I have alot of sales experience and the best thing to do is make light of your situation. I always liked to hear the no answer. The more I hear the faster I will get to hear a yes.

I hear ya! Been there, done that.
Remember, all it takes is one person who IS interested, and the aggrevation suddenly seems mild!
I know it isn't exactly what you wanted to hear, but is all worth it when you get the check in your hands!

Place gasoline soaked rags inside your boat. Now light the rags on fire and watch the piece of turd burn. Now, call your insurance company.
