And this is why I hate selling online

[Nomad]

Getting rid of our camper list it a couple places , get an inquiry with a NJ area code and I live along Lake Ontario, seems odd but these campers have a cult following and people will drive a day or two  ,so I text him back,” the Vintage Cruiser is still available “ answering his only question.

Later I get a call ,fumble for the phone and thinking I hung up on him I say “ ah sh!t, “ voice on phone says “ ah sh!t,is right “ I apologize saying i thought i accidentally hung up, he asks if it’s a van ? It’s listed under travel trailers and has several photos in the ad, I say didn’t you see the photos ? No he says ,then I say well,it’s listed under travel trailers . He’s says if I’m going to be a smart ass I can forget about it , “ done “ I reply . 

Next up is a local guy , asks for my addy and is Sunday good ? Sunday is very good here’s my addy and cell phone please text me direct . No text no show . 
 

I’ve got a phone offer from a dealer I called who does “ very well “ with these and if he bumps it up a grand  I’ll take it , just not worth the aggravation of the tire kickers ,no shows and general all around Richard Heads ( that’s my job .) 
 
One very nice retired couple liked it but are looking for a bit bigger . So 1 out of 3 were nice so far .

He wasn’t selling it here I don’t think.

I sell a lot of things. Online, in person, and it’s a total crapshoot. Eventually you learn to not take it personal and have standard replies for most things. One-off items you sell are nowhere near as the same level of experience as selling something repeatedly. Plenty of people expect you to offer support to them even though they never have purchased from you and never will. The amount of times I get people who message me on the forums asking to support and troubleshoot despite never buying from me is astounding. You just have to be as nice as possible and move forward. Try not to lose sleep over it Larry. It’ll get sold and don’t let the headache make you sell for less than you value the camper.
