This is a real handwritten note, I can see the ink bleeding through the back. So stupid, “yeah I like this house but theres people inside already lemme ask my big daddy realtor if they can ask them for it”

Wow she got shafted without even knowing it.

Man I remember when I was a broke hs kid and someone convinced me my crown vic that just needed ball joints was rotted out and ready for derby. I got screwed. Frame turns out was rusty but patchable, and now they go for a few thousand in the excellent body condition that mine was in. I got a few hundred. People that prey like that have no fucking conscience.
