A guy is selling his Fender Telecaster and Amp here, advertised: "$600 cash to first buyer". the fool called within 10 minutes. The guy was surprised..."Oh...I'll call you back.." He said. He raised his price by $200 an hour later.
A guy advertised his Fender Statocaster for $1500 firm. The fool responded. When giving address and meeting time, he added: "I want you to know the $1500 is firm!" They fool replied: "Understood, I will bring cash" Next morning, another e-mail: "I set up another guy coming here at the same time, higher bidder will get it" The fool was puzzled. What did it mean: "PRICE IS FIRM"?
A guy listed his vintage Fender Jaguar. The fool replied to the ad. After a few negotiation e-mails, the price was agreed upon. The seller said: "I need to go to work now, come back Saturday at 11:00 AM" On Saturday morning, the fool received an e-mail "Don't come, I sold the guitar to someone else yesterday..."
The fool also decided to sell his vintage Fender Stratocaster at $2500, a buyer called, asked a lot questions and photos, finally accepted the price.. The 2nd guy called. The fool said:"Someone is coming tomorrow and agreed on price" The 2nd guy said "I will pay you $2550 cash tonight..." The fool said: "Sorry, I can't do that. if the 1st guy does not show up nor buy it, I will sell to you at the same $2500"
He is really a damn fool!

Conclusion: Yes, he is a damn fool, he should have dealt only with Rickenbackers instead of Fenders.
