Glad to know I'm not the only one. When we moved 2 years ago, we had to get rid of some old bedroom furniture. Listed it for $100, nothing aside from 1 or 2 lowballs. Few days later, lowered to $50, and got the usual flakes who would express interest once, and never be heard from again. Like, come on, seriously? The least you could do is have the courtesy to say, "Sorry, I've taken another look and decided I don't want it, but thank you."

Then as we got closer to the possession date for the new owners of the house, and still no sold furniture, I said screw it, and put the price down to free. Eventually, a couple of students decided to take it, and picked it all up in a U-Haul.

But before that, I had a woman reply to the ad asking if I could deliver it to her house on the other side of town.

What the hell do I look like here? It's FREE, if you want it, drive your sorry ass down here and PICK IT UP YOURSELF!
