I found this chain of emails I forgot about. Its long but totally worth reading:
*communication between me and a "tower" on craiglist about transporting a motorcycle from brooklyn.
Me:
how much to transport a 400cc supermoto from the directions below?
this would be the trip
(link to Directions)
Him:
normally its like $200 but if we can work out a time that is a good fit for both or us i can cut you a break and do it for $150
Him:
how much were you looking to spend?
Him:
$25 on the rite day!
Me:
This sat, 9am pick up.
Him:
ok for which price?
Me:
Youre the transporter. You tell me the price. Right now ill either be renting a uhaul motorcycle trailer & borrowing my friends truck or if the price is good having someone (possibly you) transport it.
Thank you.
Him:
i was asking you if you wanna rent a u haul go right ahead
Him:
besides i already gave you my prices so what the problem? try to stay with the program!
Me:
I think we're getting miscommunication here.
How much to transport the bike from the locations provided with a 9am pickup on Saturday.
Sorry for any confusion.
Thank you.
Him:

He seems to be a great business man with excellent writing skills. I would have normally responded accordingly but He now knew when and where I was picking up my motorcycle so I didnt want to chance encountering this unstable person in real life.
