my Love Hate relationship with Kijiji

So, this morning, I saw on my kijiji rss feed that someone had a starchoice/shaw direct PVR for $60. Great deal, so I respond. Don't hear anything til 5:00 at home, get a call, she wants to meet tonight. I wasn't able to meet until around 8pm, she was ok with that, gave me her cell number and the night rolled on. Faith got home from work so I could go and I called. Then texted and waited. Her Text reply was "I already met you, you're Dan, right?". I then called and found out she had recieved a call while at the mall and some guy named Dan showed up and bought it. She told me she got a call, he asked where she was and if she had it... then he met her and bought it.

I figure the most likely scenario is that someone else emailed and asked for her phone number, while she said she emailed other people and said it was sold. When the person called, she asked if it was Dan and they said "sure I am"...

or someone emailed and offered more money so she made up a lame story to not feel bad about not selling to me...

Either way, what a pain in the butt. Waste of my time and I was really excited for the great deal I was getting.

At least the Leafs decided to score some goals tonight.

Slurpee Conditions

For Wednesday Evening
Location: Guelph (spit) Speedsville Rd
Gatorade Gforce Blue and Coke were an admirable pair tonight. Sadly,
those 2 and Pepsi were the only one slushed to an acceptable level of
the 8. Pox on you 7-eleven for letting this gift you have just rot
under your own roof... pox.
