(quoted from post at 11:08:14 11/28/16) Anybody got any good ones? I've never had much luck with it and have heard quite a few. What about you all???
(quoted from post at 14:24:47 11/28/16) haven't sold much but no problems with what i have.
bought a few things no problems either.
one scam i ran across was an ad for a car. looked really good and had a really good price. The price was too good so i figured it must have a million miles on it. So i inquired just to see. I think it was email.
so the lady replies and the miles are on the lower side but still over 100000. so i ask when i can look at it. she replies and asks where am i located.. and gives this story how it was her son's car and he died recently and she just wants to get rid of it. so i reply with my town and asked her how the tire were.. her next reply was how she moved to Oklahoma and has the car set up thru ebay motors (but not listed on ebay) that they will handle the transaction by delivering the car 1st, then after 10 days if i like it i pay ebay for the car and they pay her. very odd i thought.. why list the car in battle creek Michigan if you live in Oklahoma and why pay ebay to handle the transaction and not just list it thru them... and i don't think ebay even has that type of service anyway... but i didn't look... i simply replied too far away and i reported it to craigslist..
not sure how the scam would have played out... i'm guessing a deposit would have been required in there somewhere.. or COD or something... that was a new one i hadn't heard of.. takes all kinds i guess.
(quoted from post at 12:49:29 11/28/16) The best one I know was a local high school kid. He advertised a 4 -wheeler for $1500-$2000. He got a call from Atlanta. We are 3-4 hours from Atlanta! Caller tells the kid he will give asking price plus $200 if he delivers.[You know where this is going] The kid delivers and guy says he wants to road test it. Guy gets on 4-wheeler , pops a wheelie and waves goodby! The kid calls police and they tell him that the guy has done multiple people like that and there is nothing they can do. The now educated young man crys all the way back home. Thankfully he didn't get hurt.
(quoted from post at 18:39:51 11/28/16) I bought a camper 1 1/2 hour way, he was late getting where we were to meat but it s mine now. Golf cart from St Louis Mo,I told him I would be there in two hours if he would hold it, and if he could not I understood and would stay home. 2 1/2 hours later we were heading home with a good cart.

Nothing they can do? I doubt that. It's called theft and they can do something. That little tid bit there makes the story a bit suspect.
Saw a used bong for sale once on CL(quoted from post at 07:59:04 11/29/16) People buying or selling roach clips or dating services are another crowd entirely, LOL

Well, if they have no idea who the person is, how are they going to find him? The kid probably didn't get a name, or if he did it was a fake name. The thief certainly did not have them meet at his house. He zipped off on the 4-wheeler, went a couple streets over, loaded it on a truck or trailer, and was 15 miles away by the time the police arrived.
