Selling Toys - Horror Stories & "Happy" Customers

Selling a piece of 110+ year old furniture on Ebay. Guy offered me basically a 1/3 of the asking price then told me "it's got a giant chunk of wood missing from it" when I declined his offer. It's got a splintered side portion which amounts to a 1/4 inch wide splinter on one edge (easily patched or restained to maintain the authenticity of the piece).

Had to explain to him "Things from World War I are rarely found in mint condition."

Two weeks later it sells to another guy for full price without comment or complaint.

Always be willing to wait out the halfwits.
