Weirdest Question asked when selling gear?

damn vampires - always upgrading their audio equipment

"Do you smoke? Do you drink? Do you have a dog? How old are you? Are you married? How tall are you, how much do you weigh? What is your hair color? What do you do for a living? How long have you been doing this? How long have you worked there? Where were you before? -------->"

Finally, I asked, "Are you interested in the piece, or are you interested in me?" Once he got over the shock, the answer was that an audio component was a reflection of the owner. What really threw him for a loop even more that I decided it wasn't worth doing a deal with him.

Are you the original owner? No, I am at least the third. The manufacturer, the dealer, then me.

Has it ever been serviced? No, it has not broken down yet. Maybe after I sell it.

I know where people are coming from, but if an item is well cared for, who cares how many owners? If something has been serviced, does not mean it is a lemon. With high end gear, more times than not it means it is in better shape.

ah.....its good to see you guys have a good sense of humur and bit back!!!

Wait, where's my list....

Actually, the weirdest was probably from a guy that wanted to know
the religion of the owner of the hifi company in question before he bought the product.
Did he buy it? What do you think?
