I was going to offer you $180, but after looking at all of those scratches, I'll give you $75.

yea starbucks
for someone who was so gung ho about rules in his feeler post you sure devalued his merchandise.

I have an ipod mini and I can say that it doesnt take a whole heckuv a lot to scratch off that white logo. some lose change, a pocket and 1 minute will do the trick. Bottom line, some scratches doesnt denote abuse

If I am interested in the purchase, there is no reason I can't make an offer and explain why it's lower than asking price. Thanks.

Stop trolling.

I can understand a reasonable counter offer but you more than halved what he was asking. You cant see how that could be conceived as anything but devaluing and insulting?
Im not trolling. I am trying to help people have successful sales and I saw your post and felt it was a bit unfair.

I'm not trying to start a flame war but OKComputer is right Starbucks.. I felt as if you devalued my item to further people who view this thread. I know for a fact that my friend doesn't abuse his mini, he just uses it often and keeps it in his pocket. Keep in mind it is still in perfect working order.
