1. Find the craziest background to keep them guessing...
2. Describe your laptop as though you are selling livestock:
Hello. I am selling a very nice and sturdy Dell Laptop.(I much prefer an ugly, jiggly laptop)
3. Scare off those scammers...something like this should work:
IF YOU ASK ME TO SHIP IT ANYWHERE, ESPECIALLY AFRICA, YOU WILL BE REPORTED AUTHORITIES, YOU'VE TRIED YOUR AFRICA SCAM ON ME SEVERAL TIMES NOW, STOP(So I can't pay with a goat and ask you to ship to Afghanistan?... but I'm making a serious request...)
Cash Only
Serious requests only
Scammers will be reported
4. Show them a real bargain...
4 thousand dollar machine - $2(Actual title and no, it isn't a $4,000 machine and I'd venture to guess he won't sell it for $2).
5. And if it doesn't sell, change your title to something like this...
Toshiba Satillite c655-s5082 - *Even Lower Price*(Folks, here's a clue... if your laptop hasn't sold in a week or two, it is too much!)
6. Sell it "as is," but make sure you include a guarantee...
Toshiba laptop as is - $60(...but the guarantee is only in place if you "dump it")
I have a toshiba laptop no charger and it is dead but I fully guarantee this laptop will turn on. It just needs to be dumped otherwise everything works on it. It is missing the enter button but it still works like I said this computer just needs to be dumped I'm sure it has plenty of viruses.
7. Don't provide pictures when descriptive text can be used instead...
IT HAS A CUSTOMIZED COVER. THE COLOR IS CAJUN SHRIMP. PINK, ORANGE COLOR COMBO. I CAN PROVIDE PICS(ah yes, the Cajun shrimp, pink and orange laptop - got it).
8. Don't worry about spelling, just tell them what they need to know...
hp 2000 laptop NEWW - $220 (albany)(yes, that was the full ad)
2 weeks old. Nothing wrong. Please email only if serious. Thanls
9. Take pictures on your unmade bed... that should really be a turn on for potential customers.
(Maybe next time you can drape your undies, on the monitor? I'd say this one is as good as sold!)
