How come my stupid idea to sell something leaves me feeling more crazy than ridiculous.

How do you feel about the simple sale idea?

Holy bloviation Batman! I trust you were under the influence of medically prescribed cannaboid substance when you wrote that?

Link to craigslist ad? Buyers probably fell asleep reading it and had no idea what they were buying. Also why a picture of a floor mat when your whole story is about the carpet??

Some might be glad to have it but most won't for fear of bringing bedbugs home. Those things are as bad now as they were years ago and nobody seems to know why!
 
Please, don't piss on a rock, the EPA may have rule protecting that rock and carpet will be a passing thought as you waste away in jail.

That's the anti fatigue mats... The catalyst for this absurd idea.
No drugs. I can show you the categorical examples of thought and writing processes of a person under various illicit and prescribed drugs but they are even wordier.
That thread is more the combination of writing patient sessions all night, accumulated sleep deprivation and taking a break from writer's bock. When you are trying to write something very important and memory intensive, a low pressure stream of consciousness writing helps get through the writer's block... It was this or start online shopping and couldn't afford the last pallet from Amazon and CDNN.
 
My business makes carpets, mats, anti fatigue foam, ect... There literally millions of square feet of scraps, trimming old colors inventory in GA.
GLWS!
Lol. Thank you! You hit the nail on the head. The main difference in my basic attempt and what your company does is similar to cafeteria mysteria meat that no one touches and pink goo. Take someone useful that no one is using for whatever ridiculous reason or maybe taboo reason, rebrand the hell out of it and sell it to the same guys that were throwing it away.
Personally, related to the repurposing of materials, I was relieved to hear that Taco Bell's secret recipe and th McNuggets were not entirely meat. I was hoping for some saw dust when I pay 4 dollars a pound for meat and they buy it and resell their pound 'o "meat" for $1.50. Okay, I'm done. I bet there would have been a lot less whining and more name calling if I had posted this in "Stupid Stuff". ;)
 
Pax, I think this worries you too much, lol. I've listed stuff that NEVER got a bite at all... Withdrew ad and somebody hits me up wanting it!! Not saying this is what you should do at all. My point being is internet sales are a funny thing. Don't stress so much about it...lots of other things to get worked up about that's more important.
If it is bothering you that bad, I've got a couple of phone numbers to some really understanding, trained, people with whom would love to explore this with you. :D
Oh, oh, and good luck with your sale....I really mean that in the nicest way ! :)

Thanks and I'm not sure whether there is something hidden in taking up those numbers or not... ;) I'm not stressed at all. If you knew what I did for a living and the real issues with the human condition, this is relaxing to me, it's just shooting the breeze. I thought even the thread being posted would be funny but I guess I took the dry irony to far and people didn't get it (fair play, my fault)... I see horse trading whether it be over a house, a hi point or, well , over a horse as enjoyable and you can catch real insight into the types of people there are. All kinds make the world go round. I knew the answer to my question, as stupid but really not any investment of time but just another puzzle to hash out. I just wasn't getting any data so I got a great sampling from you folks. :)
