We all joke about getting offered a shitty BMX or a broken Xbox for your prized possession, but what else have you been offered?

Just went through my messages and the one that stood out was trading my old Norco Rampage frame and headset for this bike :

I'll scroll through my messages and find the best one. I'll also post a picture of what my mate got offered to swap for his 223 frame, the guy was going into like his car alloys, stereo, DJ decks etc.

I haven't had any bad experiences with this. Thank god.
In New Zealand though, things are generally sold for much, much more than they are worth.

For example, this:

The person selling it wants NZ$4500, or US$3649.50

It seems pretty crazy to me.

When I was selling my RCT, the asking price was $400.
I got a message with an offer to trade me one gameboy advance, one DS, ~15 games for the gameboy, 1 for the DS, a PS2, ~20 games for the PS2, a stock DK wheel, and a cheap snowboard. I add $50 cash.

Edit: oh, and I got offers for $800 almost daily on my Wilson.
