Me: How big and what color is the rug, and how much are you asking for it?

Craigslist reply: Um not good at dimensions. The rug is in excellent condition (about $50 in Walmart). Um getting lots of inquiries about the rug. Highest bidder is now at $25. Will sell to highest bidder by Friday.

Hmm. I’ve been looking for something cheap and not too offensive to basically use as a dropcloth that I won’t trip over constantly. I’m having a hard time seeing myself involved in a bidding war over this thing, especially since the picture he sent still doesn’t begin to say how big it is:

But you have to admire the constant use of “um” in his reply.
