Selling on RJ - WHY do strangers ask to be your friend? POLL
Seems like anytime I am selling something on RJ there are a number of strangers that respond by requesting to be a friend. I always ignore these requests.
I dont do the social media like myspace, facebook, etc. as I dont want to potentially engage any freaks or crooks.
However, this time I am selling a car, and don't want to turn away potential buyers.
Am I mistakenly ignoring interested buyers? Do serious buyers ever respond first by requesting to be a friend?

Most of the time ad's will say more pic's in my profile ! Well if you choose to ignore them then yes you could loose buyer's by doing this :!: I see nothing wrong with having a friend's list :!: :!:
