This is funny stuff. Every one please post your favorite kijiji horror stories in written form here. I have 2 good ones but in not going first. Bonus points for kijiji deal related violence or threats. I told you mine were good :D
 
I was in Edmonton for other reasons but took the chance to buy a pair of power shears for $10. Great deal. I get to the guys house in Beaumont and you can tell he's a hoarder. He has a storage container in the front driveway and a old van filled with stuff. Before I even get to the door I'm wondering... So he says the shears are in the garage and opening the door will take 4 and a half minutes. Exactly.

Ok the electric door motor is balky and you can hear it whining away while he hammers on the remote over and over. I wonder how he can stand it and then the door opens. It's a wall of stuff. You can't walk in. The cars are covered and piled with junk to the roof. He can't fix the opener cause you can hardly see it. He's got 350+ items listed on Kijiji...

Being this man is one of my greatest fears.
