I actually do appreciate the "if the ad is up, it's available" lines. Much better than calling and finding out it was sold a week ago.
I love it when they say "serious inquiries only" and they don't let you know anything about the machine or even show a picture.
The ad would go something along these lines: "Antique sewing machine, comes in a wooden box, mint condition, belonged to my grandmother, needle goes up and down, sells on ebay for hundreds more than I'm asking. No emails, will take phone calls only and don't call unless you are serious!" 555-123-4567
I've actually seen ads like this...no picture, no 'real' description, no price!!!!
