Does anyone have any information regarding the following questions?
1) If I’m in the business of BUYING purple monkeys and YOU as a consumer have ADVERTISED (in the newspaper, electronically, by way of a posted notice, flyer, sign or otherwise) your one and only purple monkey for sale with your phone number to contact you… can I legally call you using my robodialer for the explicit purpose of purchasing your purple monkey?
2) If my machine gets your voicemail, is it ok for my robodialer to leave a message in regard to purchasing your purple monkey?
3) If you are advertising to rent your purple monkey out for parties, but I want to buy it instead… is it legal to robocall and ask if you want to sell your monkey?
4) If after our discussion of purple monkeys I then change the subject to see if you have any interest in purchasing my green elephant, have I then violated any laws?
5) Assuming the answer is yes to any of the first 4 questions, is there a TIME LIMIT to how long after you advertise that I may call to see if you still have the item in question?
Note that at no time has my robocaller generated any random or sequential numbers, but merely operates off a list of people advertising their monkeys as previously mentioned.
Despite the colorful examples used, these are serious questions. Substitute your favorite product, item or service as you deem fit.
Thank you
