I've definitely had people offer me shockingly large amounts of Marijuana, years before it was legalized, but this one was pretty odd. The item I was selling is worth about $700-800 give or take. I was asking $700.

It's supposedly a 1967 Bassman that someone converted into a 2X10 combo. I probably would've gone for it if it was a just a head in good condition. But this... this actually kind of hurts me to see.

Go for it!

I’ve had a few people want you trade me guns or knives but they always wanted full retail pricing and I hadn’t taken up the hobby at that point

I've been offered "Medibles" multiple times. I live in a state where I can walk 5 minutes down the street and buy as many thc edibles as I want so I'm not sure why they thought that would be enticing. And my most recent favorite was from a guy I've done business with multiple times- really nice guy. email excerpt: "I would much rather a (generous) trade rather than cash. I have a Pioneer VSX-1015TX (an amazing unit, made in Japan) which I am no longer using. Or, behind the other curtain, a vintage (2004) Apple G5 workstation, if you are into that sort of thing. I also have glassware and ceramics. Maybe we can make this happen?" - I thought the presentation there was pretty amusing. I was going to take him up on the Pioneer but the item in question sold on Reverb before I could get back to him.
