Default funny response from Ebay seller

I was looking for new OEM floormats for the XK, and wanted the ones with the logo set/embossed in the mats. I had saved two eBay sellers' listings, one of which sent me a message with a discount offer. Not a huge discount, only about $10 off a $208 price (I ended up buying those). I sent the other seller (itsajag) a message asking if he offered a discount since I had saved his listing (as many eBay sellers do when you save their listing), and he responded simply with "NO". I sent a message thanking him and said I would buy elsewhere. Here's the response I received back.

Message from: itsajag (635)

You, sir, are the bold representation of everything wrong with the Jaguar community. Demanding a discount because you clicked on an ad? How ludicrous is that? You are correct, you'll need to buy them somewhere else since you can't afford our floor mats for your 10-year-old jalopy. Perhaps Pep Boys may have some generic ones that fit, or if you're lucky, you might be able to up your budget to get ones with Yosemite Sam and a footprint gas pedal cover. Somehow, I think that would suit your car perfectly. Because if you're this stingy with floor mats, I can only imagine the garbage heap you've turned your car into trying to save pennies. Why don't you do the Jaguar community a real favor and sell your junk wagon to someone who can actually maintain it?
God bless.

I guess it takes all kinds. I never even considered ones with Yosemite Sam on them for my garbage heap jalopy ............gee, wish he'd responded before I bought the other OEM mats. LOL.

Slap on a 12" lift kit and you'll have clearance for a matching set of mudflaps and a pair of those fake ********* that dangle from the trailer hitch!

Yosemite Sam goes with any car, jalopy, hooptie..........

I got my oem logo mats from deserteuropeanmotorcars on ebay, Jaguar Rancho Mirage in CA. I'm guessing you did, too.
In fact, I've bought quite a few items for my 07 XKR from them. Nice folks and great ebayers.
