Welcome to Socialism

[UNSTUCK]

A text conversation I had last night:

Him: Would u be interested in trades for the commando

Me: Unlikely. What do you have?

Him: Guns some cash suzuki sidekick

Me: Hum...Just the cash.

Him: No thanks then. No one is paying cash for things nowdays.

Me: That's funny. Just today I was nicknamed, "old school".

Him: Huh


I'm pretty excited that cash is out. I need to call my mortgage company. Maybe I can fix their jeeps instead.

I've got one guy that texts me almost every time I have something listed asking to trade for his stuff. My last text to him explained the process of opening a bank account, and how to 'save money' so he can actually buy things someday.

I hate listing stuff on KSL and dealing with the KSL doosh bags. I have a bunch of stuff I wouldn't mind getting rid of cheap, but perish the thought of the KSL text tards.

My personal favorite:

KSL Doosh: Do you still have XYZ?

Me: Yes.

And that's it, never hear from them again. Get that one just about every time on every item. What kind of a maroon has time for such nonsense?

My favorite are the ones that want to know what's my "bottom dollar" before they've even looked at what I've got to sell. One guy did that to me on the tires I just sold "Hey, I want your tires, what's your bottom dollar?". "um, add says $700". Never heard from him again. I don't understand why he thinks I'm going to bargain against myself on his behalf.

I hate the fact that every KSL ad I post I have to start off with bold cap letters ***NO TRADES***NO TRADES*** when in fact I would be interested in some trades I just don't want to deal with the endless unrealistic trade offers all day. And even marking the ads beyond clear about me not wanting trades I still get a handful anyways.

Them: What's the least you'll take?

Me: What's the most you'll pay?

This is bad, but equally as frustrating are people that don't take down ads after items are sold.

What does not using cash have to do with socialism?
If it were socialism, he'd buy it from you under order from the government for pennies on the dollar.
Also - your mortgage company made that I.O.U. (that we call a mortgage) pretty much out of thin air. (google: fractional reserve banking)

Other than that, I agree. Quit trying to trade your useless crap for our stuff!

Wanna trade for some Jazz tickets?

I have only been asked to trade once. Someone wanted to trade me their Audi All Wheel Wagon for my boat.

They need to ease us into it slowly. These "traders" are helping to bring in the likes of Bernie Sanders. Nine years from now we just may be under order. Jeeps for Jazz tickets.

The problem with many of these traders is they are impatient and most of them are stupid, I have made a ton of trades and every single one I have came out way ahead on and often times almost double my money over what i would have just sold it for it my original asking price

I had someone offer a tattoo in trade for a vehicle that I had on KSL. They couldn't understand that I had no interest in them giving me a tattoo.

 

[sawtooth4x4]

I hate trading, its only worked out a few times so far with guys who have similar interests in Land Rovers. I hate dealing with trying to trade stuff otherwise.

 

[glockman]

I've told this story a bunch but it was one of my most witty moments.

Add o n KSL for my toy hauler asking 9k which was lower end of book / market value.

Ksl dude: would you take 4500 for your trailer?
Me: no
KSL dude:how about a trade, I have a xzy snowmobile.
Me: how much is it worth?
KSL dude: 7k
Me: would you take 3500?
Ksl dude: touche.

Without a state currency, you can't be taxed to provide socialist services. I'd say this is a good thing. Long live the free market!

I have just recently made a good trade for both parties. I traded a Colt Ar15 + cash for a Klx250 Motorcycle. Both items were as described, and both parties were happy with what they were getting.

My dad is the king of trades. People are always apprehensive when he asks if they will take a trade, that is until he pulls gold coins out. I have seen many deals where the seller ends up giving him more cash out of pocket to buy more gold coins.

Been there! "I promise, I'm a great tattoo artist!" He says, with several tattoo's on him of very questionable quality!

Not only No, but HELL NO!!

Try trading you car straight across at a dealer. Do they still tax you?
