Some of the inquiries/offers I got from the ads were pretty wacky. One guy
offered 25% of my asking price and wanted a boat ready to cross the
Atlantic, 2 others offered 30% under my asking with no questions, etc. It
was hard to keep my sociable attitude when one of them pinged twice again
after my declining his offer.

Tell me about it. When I had the Ranger up for sale, you'd get morons
who wanted to buy it for less than 50% of the asking price. Sign of
the times I guess. One told me he thought I owned money on it so I
wanted to get rid of it. Heh...

We have the same thing with the house - lots of lookers, no takers.
And those who offer think "mortgage problem" so they low ball. Bottom
feeders the bunch of them. :)

Got that right.
I think the lookers are mostly out for free entertainment.
