Whats the most rediculous offer youve gotten yet?

I have gotten some pretty interesting offers, from the typical low ballers to random azz stuff.

I have had the following offered at some point in on trade for a pistol or rifle:
Dogs
Cats (seriously? You can't give cats away)
A Holstein Calf....(Actually would have taken that offer if my property was fenced in, but still that was a RANDOM trade offer)
A homemade trailer that I wouldn't trust to stay together
A log splitter
2 22" rims
Sheet metal, WTF?
And a few others...They just crack me up, I don't get mad.

Someone offered me a sling signed by Carlos Hathcock for a $1200 rifle I had.

Yeah, wasn't that guy looking to get a high end 1911 for a $20 surplus sling?

I had a guy (not on here) offer me $200 for an LCR package I had for sale. It had holsters, speed loaders, and 330rnds of target & SD ammo. I told him $350 for just the gun or $450 with ammo and all the extras, and he goes "You want to charge people for ammo? that's like buying a car and not getting a free tank of gas" Dunno what world he lives in, but ammo aint free.

sometimes i throw in a mag of ammo, but not more than like 10 or 15 rounds if that
 
Had a fella offer me a pool stick for one of my OD Glocks. He said it was a $500 stick.....

A buddy of mine has a Josey cue stick. Custom made with mahogany and mother of pearl inlay, and other custom stuff. He got it for doing some "computer work" for a guy. He's been offered over $2000 for the cue. Not my cup of tea, but arrarently there is a market.
 
I've been offered landscaping work for barter. (Brother-in-law does that for me thanks) Computers/computer work. (Sorry I do that for my work) I've been offered things I've even specifically said I didn't want. For my truck, I had offers of riced out cars [ad specifically said NO], glocks for trade [I'm not a hater, just don't care for them].

The cake was someone offered me firewood for a rifle. It probably wasn't a bad deal. Problem is, I don't have a fireplace!
 
I had a Gen 3 Glock 23 with nite sites for sale and a guy offered me the following:

25 copies of a History Channel documentary on the human anatomy

10 Leupold lens pens

And some other odds and ends junk for the pistol. My Glock was used with about 500 rounds thru it, but come on!!! I had a good laugh about it.
 
When I grow up I want to have as much money as you all. That way I will be able to offer asking price on every over priced guns on here. In a perfect world I will be able to afford 700 dollars century arms ak's. also, 700 dollar non converted saiga 12's and 2000 dollar ksg's.
