Me: Where do you live?
Corio. (45 minute drive from me)
I resist the urge to tell her to use her manners, and that I am not a personal fucking delivery service, and tell her it'll be another $50 to deliver. No answer.
Them: Hi, is this available?
Me: Yes, are you interested?
Them: Does it come with ropes, carabiners and straps to attach to the ceiling?
Me: No, you'll have to get those yourself from Bunnings.
Resists urge to query why they think they'd get all the added extras for that price.

Sorry too far (it's a fifteen minute drive away)
Me: Resists urge to ask them why they didn't look at the location in the advertisement and how close do they expect something to be?
Them: Hi is this available?
Me: Yes, are you interested?
Them: DIMENSIONS??????
Me: Resists urge to tell them to read the entire advertisement where the dimensions are listed, and to use their manners.
Me: Hi, is this available? We can come past on Saturday, but need to know it's solid wood first?
Them: Yes, it's solid wood.
Me: Goes out of my way to get to the place to pick it up by said time, navigates traffic, a dog at the gate, two toddlers by the front door, and finds it is not solid wood and awkwardly says no thanks.
Them: Oh my god I love this book! It's beautiful! I'd like to buy it please, but I can't afford til Tuesday, is that okay?
Me: Of course, no worries. Message me Tuesday.
Them: Awesome! I really appreciate it! Thankyou!
Me: Tuesday I message her in the evening. Wait three days for her to reply that she's sorry and can't afford the $5 I'm asking. I readvertise for twice the amount and sell it the next day.
Me: For sale, archery set, with arrows.
