The funny thing is that you think everyone else is the problem when zero legit offers means its virtually certain your asking price was nonsense.
People with used obsolete goods often have expectations of value pegged to what they originally paid for it rather than what it’s worth.
Search your own or similar good on markets to see what other people are paying for similar or better goods.
Is Amazon selling something for 20 similar to what you paid 50 for 5 years ago? Shipped to your door tomorrow for free? Well then nobody is driving an hour out to your place next Tues to pay you 25.
Why wouldn’t they when it works
None of this makes you any less of an asshole
You should have listed it for cheap but let them have it for free if they come get it right away.
They would have felt like they were getting over on you and you would have avoided the worst of the assholes
It’s an insult you are too ignorant to understand is an insult. You wasted their time with your bs

michaelmrose@lemmy.worldto Mildly Interesting@lemmy.world•Americans overestimate the size of minority groups and underestimate the size of most majority groupsEnglish1·3 days agoChime essentially a bank tells you how much the average vacation ought to cost if you can afford to take one not how much each person actually spent. Nor would you expect spending to be even. If my boss spends 10,000 and I nothing it’s less than useful to say we spent an average of 5000.
If out of 10 people 5 take no vacation and stay home 2 spend 1000 and 3 spend 5000 then the average vacation would cost 3400. 17,000 / 5 . Poor people aren’t poor because they fly to Hawaii.
You seem to have a lot of trouble with this.
It’s ok
michaelmrose@lemmy.worldto Mildly Interesting@lemmy.world•Americans overestimate the size of minority groups and underestimate the size of most majority groupsEnglish1·4 days agoLet me help you with some math and logic. If 52% of people have flown in the past year and 70% of those flights were leisure then 0.52x0.7 = 0.364 or 36.4% flew for leisure in the last year and 63.6% did not.
Presumably the 2/3 who didn’t fly for vacation also didn’t spend 3000 and change which is hint just what a bank told you it should cost not how much people especially poor people are actually spending. There is a massive disparity between the haves and have nots in America.
Tldr: they aren’t living paycheck to paycheck because they spent 3000 they are doing so because shit is expensive. People also aren’t poor because they eat too much avocado toast.
You don’t want a ladder unless you are cleaning the gutters

discount fares
-
regional flights
-
vacations taken as a kid
-
flights paid for in whole or in part by parties with more cash
-
saving money for a long time
-
flights paid for when one had a better financial position or after a windfall
Generalistically people are poor because they are thousands to tens of dollars per year underneath where they would need to be to be middle class. For instance earning 20,000 per year less than a middle class family x 20 years = $400,000 less Whereas you are wondering how people can possibly be poor because they had $350 once ever. This is like those weird fucks who think people who have smart phones can’t be poor.
Also worrying about the environmental impact of poor people flying once back in 1995 is … probably moot.

Young and liberal associate them with Israeli genocide.
Young and conservative is full of full on Nazis.
Politically they aren’t worth much being concentrated in liberal strongholds.
When the old folks who are pro Israel go into the grounds dislike will be a rare point of agreement. Not a great position.

Then once you have a bunch of apps you’ll end up with different versions needing different runtimes which will need constant updates of the same 1G. Given modern connectivity and storage it isn’t that burdensome in truth but neither is the Windows example.
It’s just humorous to crow over one and ignore the other.
