This is going to be a fun thread......

There is a list member, forget who, that always makes it clear in his for sale postings that he will wait 24 hours (or some time frame) before replying to requests. At least everyone had a fair chance with his method.
The reality is that most list folks want to get rid of stuff quickly once they decide to sell, so it's into the shark tank.
