People are dumb enough to not even read one single line from the ad and they just call. I have had numerous calls asking "Kitna GB RAM hai" and blah blah and i have clearly mentioned in the ad to first read it entirely and that too in BOLD and UNDERLINE, 3 times and ad is very detailed as well. The product has issues and i have mentioned it clearly with all specs and everything but still who cares to read the ad.
Damn they even ask me "kaunse company ka hai" when that too is mentioned.
Olx is the worst place to do transactions . Much rather prefer erodov or company buy/ sell forums
@raksrules - i have a hefty TV-cabinet (hefty in the sense, heavy, but with no frills). its about 7ft in width. would it be advisable to put it on sale on olx? am concerned about how a buyer would take it away, labour-charges, etc.

Transportation should be his/her headache. You should price/bargain accordingly, considering transportation cost might occur. In short do not give buyer a reason.
Mention everything clearly and have PATIENCE !!
People will call without even reading the ad properly.
Do write that transport charges to be borne by buyer and be cool because people will bargain like anything. Stick to your price if you really think the table is worth it and you are in no hurry to sell.
actually getting a new cabinet installed, and the carpenter agreed to take the existing one back for 3k (originally made for 15k, 4 yrs back). i thought to take chances with olx. but the carpenter called up a while back and said that he's arriving with the new cabinet today itself. i enquired how will you take the existing one back, to which he said that he would disassemble it by taking out its screws wherever they are fit. so i think this is how it should be sold (transported) off, in case i still go ahead to list it on olx. can't decide for now. let me see.
iPhone 5 - 16GB - Mint Condition - For sale - Only Rs 18000
Nah I am not selling any iPhone. This ad is just for timepass to prove that people do not care to read ads completely before calling the seller and then ask dumb and stupid questions.
I will be keeping a count of number of people who call me daily for this ad and see how many dumb people i catch
Will update my count in the ad as well, daily...LOL
Have fun.
I feel you should go with carpenter route, lesser hassles.
Posted this AD on Olx and already got 4-5 calls asking for the device LOL, i tell them to go and re-read the AD
