Weirdest Question asked when selling gear?

Have you ever asked a question not for the answer but for the response?

Lets see you are upset because of stupid questions, but the other person on the other end has not seen or sometimes heard the product being sold . Some people keep their equipment very well and others really do not care how it looks or the problems they have had with it and just want to dump it. So if a buyer has any questions to ask about it and you have nothing to hide you should be willing to answer them. There have been many threads about people being fooled on the buying side of things and not all people are honest so by talking or asking questions on the buyers side puts the buyer more at ease to make the transaction. Did you ever send thousands of dollars across the United States hoping everything would work out okay? At some point the seller has your money , you have nothing If you do not like to answer questions do not sell. The reason for this forum is to share knowledge and you as the seller will be sharing part of that to the people who have questions about what you are selling.

Yes, I guess we do get annoyed by certain questions. I cannot even count the number of times I have gotten a long list of general questions about a brand of audio gear and I tell them the information is available at:
www.insert-company-name.com

I would think this would be obvious to someone using the internet.

Speaking of weird questions- When someone asks "How are you?" etc and they don't really care to hear the answer in the first place and are just trying to be polite, tell them you have been shooting herion, it will get their attention quickly!
