Two weeks ago I was going to buy a Escort radar detector from craigs well I told the seller I would be there in the morning so I got ready set the address in my GPS and I called them and they said sorry we sold it last night. I was up-set but at least I didn't have to drive way into to Houston don't care for the traffic. Waiting on another Escort should be in soon paid less for it and im not having to drive for it. :)

I tried to buy a set of 09 stock wheels a while back. The guy said sure come get em. But when I called back a few mins later to get directions, he said he's sorry but his wife already promised them to a guy driving from 2 hours away. I told him I had cash in hand and could be there in 20 minutes, but he still refused.

I've never bought a thing from 'em. I don't have an account on Craigs list or e-bay.

I'm too skeptical to buy anything from CL, I have only bought a few things from ebay. I just read too many bad stories, I know there are good deals to be had but I'm not a gambler.

Craigs list over here on this end of the country seems to be ok for now. I have sold several things to include two water heaters. It is amazing what people come to pick stuff up in. :lol:

I get stuff on Ebay all the time. So far have not had any problems and get great deals. I just sold my old Minolta X-700 camera I had since 85 on Ebay for $65. It sold in ten minutes of listing it. It was just sitting here collecting dust and Wolf Camera told me that they would give me $5 for it. So now I have some spending cash for the holidays.

I have sold some amps on CL before. Also sold my 5x14 utility trailer on there. Tried selling a few other things, but nobody wanted them. I also got an install gig from there too. A guy posted an ad saying he bought a Viper remote start off ebay but no local shops would install it for him. I emailed him and we ended up meeting up and I installed it for him for $150. :thumbs:
