words that u hate to see in ads

-
Not seen in ad's but it really torques me off, when you call about something that is for sale and they say, it's in a shed and it will be a couple weeks before they can get it out. Why advertise it now, wait til you get it out and have it ready for sale.
 
" I've got this super rare (whatever) for only $(too much) but I saw one on Barrett Jackson go for $70,000 I know what I have here. All it needs is a little bodywork, paint, interior, and an engine. Don't let this one get away.
 
How about when an ad is posted with no price, and the seller says serious buyers only.
How the Hell can anyone know if they are a serious buyer, seller could want 10 times what its worth.
 
''Lady driven''. To me it probably has a lot of dents, the brakes are shot, it has hit every curb, and it has girly do-dads and perfume in the interior. (Sorry ladies, no insults are intended.)
"Never raced". Ashamed of what it will do?
"Rebuilt engine 50,000 miles ago". So, it's half worn out again?
"Low miles for the year". So, a 1969 Dart with 400,000 miles on it would be considered low?
"Wouldn't take much to get it running". So then, get it running......
"Never smoked in". So, how about farting?
"All original" or "Minty". Yeah, right. if the car has under a few thousand miles on it, then there's a chance.
"At this price it won't last long". Yeah, that's what i'm afraid of.
And my favorite......
"It'll go 100 miles per hour in second gear". So, you really run the **** out of it eh?
 
the motor is built.... of course it is stupid, when your watching it idle. or when they say totally restored and it has a bunch of aftermarket crap on it. frame off is another good one too
 
I love the truck ads where they say "short wide"......is that describing the owner????? Every truck bed I've ever seen was just over 4' wide.
 
Any time something is suggested but cant be proven. "Believed to be original miles", "believed to be a former race car", Richard Petty may have eaten a burger in the passenger seat. And I should pay you twice market value because you claim this?
