I like:  "Invested (some large some of money) and asking less."  Sounds like a poor investment and possible a good deal for someone.

I also don't like when no price is posted.  Makes me want to call just to ask them the price and then thank them.  But I refrain.

"Never Smoked In"

85% of the Cars I see on the Road has someone smoking in it.

Went to a local Cars & Coffee get-together recently and there was an otherwise nice '64 Falcon with an SBF underhood and Chevy 283 emblems on the fenders!~!

Can't wait to read that guy's for sale ad.

Ads that start with, "Here we have...".
Also the occasional "needs rebuilt"

Pirating!  Corporate take-over without the paperwork

Classic Mustang seller saying they have a Marty or Martini report!
Granted that could be auto correct taking over but still...get it right!

Sellers saying they have a Mustang GT for sale just because it has an eight cylinder.
Sellers saying their classic Mustang has a V6.

I often tell sellers on Craigslist who say "taking best offer over such and such price.." if they want a bidding war then please use eBay!
