Does he want $4000 or $5000 for that LP? He can't seem to make up his mind.

And since he is clearly an idiot, maybe we should all contact him with bids that make him think he has hit the motherload. You know, just for shits and giggles.
I just sent him an offer to trade for a Fender squire classic vibe 50's Tele. I have it listed for $8,0000 but would be willing to trade him even, giving him the deal of the century.

4K for both? Is that a deal? Seems like a lot of cash, but I am not in the antique game.
Wacky but cool toilet seat guitar.sounds cool , ideal for slide, try your trades or make a offer.

I would proudly play that on stage.

The guitar is worth 600-700$ and the amp, if its blowing fuses is worth less. Its a non-reverb model. They are 70's not 60's.
I wonder who is that famous Rockstar that touched the case...
Drink Beverage can Energy drink Energy shot Tin can

He went to a show and touched a case of Rockstar energy drinks.

Maybe he spilled some on the axe?

I doubt he went to a show. It probably happened in Madison Square Mama's Basement.

I just had someone ask me for the receipt for a used item, then told me it's a no go because I don't have the receipt of said item. Am I missing something here? Why are you on Kijiji?

Maybe he thinks you stole it.

I've had people ask me for receipts in the past. I tend to just ignore them.

There are items that I wouldn't buy without an original receipt. For example, I wouldn't buy an SM57 microphone without an original receipt because they are so widely counterfeited and it's very hard to tell a real one from a fake by looking at it.

(I wouldn't buy a used SM57 anyways, because a new one is quite affordable, but it was the first example to come to mind.)
But. It's Kijiji. Used, secondhand items. When it comes to gear, it's likely changed hands a few times over, it's unusual to have a receipt. I guess for high end things, it's reasonable to ask for a receipt, but the item I was selling is mass produced and the likelihood of it being counterfeited are non existent. Do you REALLY need to verify my Made in China, generic brand name item is not a counterfeit? It's like asking me to verify if Ikea furniture is the real deal or not!

I've never asked for a receipt but have been offered them when I picked up the item.

According to a US Customs officer I saw in a documentary a year or two ago, the counterfeit item they seize the most is dish soap. If there is a penny to be made, someone in China is counterfeiting the item.

I am ordering some new Ni-NH rechargeable batteries for some phones and radios. The way the strength of the battery is rated is the mA rating. The higher the number, the longer the battery gives power- ie 9v 400mA vs 9v 1200mA. Anyhow I am positive the Chinese are slapping higher mA ratings on batteries because the last time I got some they were 1800mA and the originals were only 400mA. The new batteries should have lasted more than 4x but they were less than 1 times. So now I don't know what to buy. Even buying locally they are all made in China, but 4 times the price of aliexpress.com . This makes my OCD act up.
Buy from an authorized Apple repair source.
I save my receipt's for any expensive piece of gear from a store. Have no problem showing a buyer proof of purchase. I also write down Kijiji add numbers for gear bought private along with address of residence I buy from. Even jot down L plate of vehicle in the drive way. I don't do curb sides. Got to cover your butt if stuff comes up stolen at a later date.

If it does come up stolen, you may not get charged but you will be out you money, and possibly lawyer's fees.
