Uniquely Styled Chair - Only $50!

I look through Craigslist ads sometimes, for things like furniture, and sometimes you see things that look kind of interesting. I had an old dining room table that I had tried to sell before without any luck. So I came up with an idea. I put up an ad that was headlined “Uniquely Styled Chair,” and in the ad itself I said it was a uniquely styled chair that was designed to look like a table, and I included a picture. The ad hadn’t been up more than about twenty minutes when I got my first call. The guy asked if it was comfortable, and I was honest with him and said no, it really wasn’t, that it was like sitting on a table. He still sounded interested and asked if he could come take a look, and I said sure. He was out within half an hour. He looked at it, then climbed up and sat on it, and then asked if I’d take $30 for it. I said sure. I got thirty bucks, and he got a “conversation piece.” It's all good.
