I'm selling some vintage GPKS on EBay. I was asked if I knew if they floated in water? I responded "are you planing on playing with them in the bathtub? Lol "
He responded... " it was a serious question. If you don't want to sell them, no problem" I guess he didn't link my joke...What do you guys think?
Would you have took offence?

Floaters = worth more
At least that's what I've gathered from barely paying attention.

I think if a buyer requests info, you give it to him.

i think he just has no sense of humor. he could have easily said No and given the reason.
but he may not want to lay any info on you so you raise the price. seems like a dick. You should just tell him to buy and see for himself if they float. haha

To answer the OP's question: I would be offended to think you would think that I would like to play with newly ebay delivered/used unclean toys in my own bathwater. I mean really who does that?

I knew my Hell turtle smelled like Soft Soap, now I know why. Sounds like something only A legend would do.

I think they would've seen the humor if it was another LRG-er who was asking or at least someone who knew you. I have dealt with many other collectors and there is a small percentage that take all the fun out of toys or are a pain in the ass to deal with.
That being said, I may not have been offended, but might have been annoyed if I need info to make a decision on how much to spend or determine value. If it was another LRG member, I'm sure you would've gotten a snarky comeback like the ones in this thread! Ha Ha.
Like Cassel87 said, people on eBay are crazy, so don't give it a second thought.
Who the hell bathes in Soft Soap anyways?!

I would have laughed so hard. I would not have taken offense. GPK collectors are pretty hardcore like NES collectors.They are petty, Its like there humorless trolls looking to score some floater for cheap. if you would have said yes they float. he would have asked you to end it early.
I hope no one take offense to that. I collect both. and am only a troll a quarter of the time. I can't believe that guy got all salty with it. I'd block him personally . tell him you don't sell to people that can't take a joke. then call him grumpy guss and a frowny face emoicon
