Am I Missing Something?

[bystander]

Human nature being what it is, unfortunately this sort of thing has always gone on, and always will. I am in no way condoning the ridiculous asking price, but at least the vendor has described the item in meticulous detail and presumably openly and honestly.

If any idiot even considers making an offer anywhere near the price, then so be it. A fool and his money ..........   Some might even argue that being a bit soft in the head is a pre-requisite for owning an Austin Seven in the first place!
