I guess if I read between the lines, you are offering this Nice '63 For Sale?

Without a Price, a clean Turquoise on Turquoise '63 it has to be at least a $30,000.00 Avanti even with the Supercharger replaced with Air Cond.

That's my second favorite threat from a seller. The all-time best is "If it doesn't sell, I'll scrap it!"

It looks like a nice clean vehicle, that has been taken care of. It's a shame that the original owner chose AC, over supercharger, but it could be put back that way. from the photos, it looks like very little rust to deal with. I'm not in the market, so no low ball offers here.

At least it's not in all capital letters..!

I remember seeing the phrase "Serious offers only" in car ads to head off the jokers and tire-kickers.

[Mrs K Corbin]

I generally skip any ads with any of those phrases and go on to someone who actually wants to sell.

Or the reverse, "I hope someone buys it for XXXX.XX because I don't want to see it go for scrap." :

Angry sellers scare me off.

In most cases, the BUYER is serious with the offer. It may be lower than what the seller defines as "serious", however. There is really no reason to include the phrase "serious offers only". It's a red flag to potential buyers who MAY have wanted to make an offer, but don't want to deal with a seller that's going to lecture them about how un-serious their offer is. If the offer is lower than what the seller would sell for, the seller just has to say no, or counter with a number that would be acceptable.

With the phrase "I don't have to sell", the seller is actually saying "I've set an unrealistically high price. If you are stupid enough to pay it, great. If not, move on".

Don't get me started on the phrase "Testing the waters" in car ads.

Buying a car is easy. Selling a car is tough. Don't make it tougher than it already is.

Yeah, this whole thread started off wrong thanks to Hawklover's initial tone. Maybe time to start over with a bit better attitude, Hawklover?

Boy, isn't that the truth!

They're expensive to buy and you have to give them away when you sell. That's life.
