Frustrations with the for sale forum...

Ok I'm not trying to be overly harsh, but what's the deal people? I've sold and bought quite a few rifles over the past couple years, however as of late its been a circus trying to sell off some of my rifles. I price them more than reasonable and yet I have people tire kicking, dropping out of deals (sight unseen) ,and the like.
For example, I'm selling a yugo sks. I've had 5 local responces. 3 have just vanished as soon as I try to firm stuff up. 1 keeps telling me to hold on to it until he can get money (dude its $120 over 2 weeks) and the other is trying to low ball me even more so (again its 120 dollars quit wasting my time!).
Its not just this forum but a few other PA specific ones. Am I to gather this is representative of my fellow PA gun owners?

Sorry if I hurt anyones feelings, but its very irritating trying to deal with people being insincere or trying to rip me off.

Anyone else have this problem??? (I know you do because I see "no tire kickers" in some ads). Speak up and let people know this is getting way past the point of being ridiculous.

I thought that when posting a firearm sale you had to post the price that you were asking?

Now I notice an ad for a M1911 that the owner is asking for members to bid on this item...

Is the firearms section classified as a auction or when post you post a price?

If it's an action I have about 10 or so firearms to auction off
