Ok, so I am selling a Sony surround sound on CL, and I got a guy who emailed me about it. Here is the exchange:

> Do you still have it? Does it come with the long poll that is shown in the picture?
> 
> J

> Yes, I still have it. It’s actually in the yard sale today. The pole stands for the front speakers are included with it. if you are interested, you can stop by the yard sale at XXXX Rt XX in Chenango bridge today, or tomorrow morning, or if it hasn’t sold, I can meet up with you another time.

> Let me know.

> Geoff

> Oh you live in CB? I went to chenango Valley high school and graduated in 2005. Does the equipment work like a charm and how old is it? Deff interested…how much u want for them…i am moving into a new apartment and paying school loans and rent so I was looking to find a new surround sound for the apartment.
> 
> can we cut a deal?

> J

> It worked great and played well. Just got rid of cable and no longer needed it. Not sure how old it is, but I would say around 3-4 years. I am looking for $125 for it.

> And I went to Forks, but graduated a while ago.

> If you want to see it or buy it, stop by the yard sale, which my parents are having, or let me know if you want to work out another time.

> Geoff

> Where did you buy the surround sound with the tall stands?? I want to purchase a new one with the stands?

> J

Really, You just asked me a bunch of questions about the one I have, and then you want me to tell you where you can buy a new one?

How should I respond to this guy?

Or if you are a sales guy, point him to [monoprice.com](http://monoprice.com) for a set of cheap metal stands, and tell him to save $$ buying the system from you

or sell him your stands and buy new ones

I just want to sell the whole thing. Not looking to separate and there has been some other interest, so I don’t mind walking away, but I was kinda peeved at first. But then I googled his name to make sure he wasn’t spam…

[http://www.linkedin.com/pub/justin-stenta/9/528/8b0](http://www.linkedin.com/pub/justin-stenta/9/528/8b0) and: [http://www.migente.com/stenta1609/](http://www.migente.com/stenta1609/)

Seems like I’ll just not respond.

Get your salesman on. “I don’t know where to buy new, but you could save a bunch of money buying mine. Once you open the box yours won’t be new either but you’ll have paid more.”

He only works a half mile from me according to his linked in, but I decided just to not respond, although my first thought was similar to “go fuck a goat”
