    Default Buyer/Seller Poll

    When you go to buy/sell some shit on IA do you shoot the shit for a while, or just sell it and get on with life?

    If they are jewish then I stick to business only. Once you strike up friendly chit chat, they'l strike when you're most vulnerable and jew you out of everything. You'll wake up and realize that you payed them to take your item.

    ill talk awhile.... i talked to vjizzle for about 45 minutes when he bought my 360. And other folks e swapped cash and items and went on. It depends on the person.. some people make buying and selling stuff so awkward, so sometimes u just want ur shit or ur money and u leave!

    Someone has always been in a hurry in my transactions, whether its me or the other person. So I havent ever really talked to the other person for that long.

    I try to always.

    Though somehow everytime I meet up for a sale, the other person's always in a hurry save for DwnSouthGaBoy (sp). He talked for a little while.
