I actually written out this whole rather lengthy email trying to educate him on what he has there but he probably took it as if I wanted to pull wool over his eyes and get this thing cheap. Doesn't look like he took my advice. Looks also like his ad was reposted on craigslist (having originally been on there a month) with a *new* price.  By the way, I made an error by saying he wanted $500 for it originally. He actually wanted $600! Now his price is "lower" at $500!  ! What's more is that he doesn't even provide the model number but makes sure to put "collectors" in the description. I had to email him in order to get it originally. I wonder what he's thinking.  |
Quelle surprise. More often than not I get no reply from Kijiji sellers. 25 bucks was dropped from the price of the XL-100 console quickly enough, but it has remained at its current high price ever since I inquired about it, even though it's not likely anyone else has done so. Good thing it's a RCA in a French Provincial cabinet, I might be ticked off about it otherwise.
