I don't wish I could be that seller, because that seller is a retard.
A 1996 Ford Bronco with 35,000 miles is not worth anywhere near 25 grand. Not even if it's a super-rare trim package, not even if the seats are done in fine Corinthian leather, not even if the motor oil he uses is refined from unicorn jizz. $9,000 is probably a quite reasonable price for that Bronco.
And where does he think he's going to find somebody with $25,000 cash in hand to make the purchase? Good luck finding a bank willing to finance a 17-year-old vehicle.
Also, it doesn't really work to call somebody "mentelly deficient" when you can't even spell "mentally" correctly. I hope this isn't "to subtle" for the seller to comprehend.
I totally understand feeling insulted by a low offer, but firing off a response like that only makes you look like a colossal pain in the ass. Especially when you are not being realistic about the price.
As for the person submitting the offer, I do wonder why he chose to submit that offer when the seller turned down much bigger ones. He would've been better off making that offer on an $11,000 Bronco.Knowledge is power. Power corrupts. Study hard. Be evil.

I am not sure I would like to be that guy. He is selling a car that is worth $7,000 tops (probably not even), asking $24,000 for it and turned down an offer for $9,000 (calling that guy an idiot). As one of the posters commented, "Pot meet Kettle."
While I love his reply, people who live in glass houses...

What scares me is that the author of that article seems to be backing the seller up 100% ~_~ Not really sure if it's meant for a joke or not. The commenters seem to be tearing the asking price apart, tho
