So i have a add on craigs list for some wheels and interior I have for sale. This lady email's me and ask (will it pass inspection), so I said I am not sure if u mean the wheels or interior but yes it is all nice stuff. Well I get an email today asking how much the insurance is on the car because her dial up is so slow she couldnt get it to go through lol. i told the lady i was selling parts to a car not a CAR lol, sorry for the confusion. I just thought it was so funny when i read that email and died laughing.

its a scam for your email address, you'll be recieving a bunch of spam crap now......

[93snake]

+1 for its a scam! had that happen to me a few times

[thecollector]

Yeah on C- List you got to put a sentence in your add- no name w/ phone # no response. If they are to dumb to read and follow the directions they either aren't a real person or wouldn't have the money to buy what your selling.

[abusedfox]

well i wish i never would have replied to it now if im gonna get a bunch of junk mail but o well live and learn right

[blown86lx]

You guys getting spam should check out gmail. Ive replied to a million cl emails like that because im always afraid i'll miss a sale and maybe they're just stupid, but i never get spam. If i ever do it automatically goes to the spam inbox.

my hotmail usally does to but i guess nothing is perfect o well

Craigslist sucks. Ebay is the way to go in my opinion. Between d bags not showing up to people offering 1000 bucks for somthing listed for 5000.

Craigslist sucks. Ebay is the way to go in my opinion.

I will have to disagree about craigslist sucking.... I have sold alot of stuff of the site.

[D&Mracing]

I have sold alot of stuff on Craigslist, first clue of a scam,do you take check? will you look up ins. for me....Just be carefull its easy to get caught up in..

[BigBadStang]

Putting stuff on CL is like opening Pandoras box! the idiots ruin it for everyone.

[sean]

it's free to list and sell. The scams are pretty obvious and if you ask the right questions and stay in control it a good place to buy and sell. Yes there are a ton of idiots on there. Lowballing is what cl is all about. I don't even reply to the really low ones.

[BIGRED Z]

I buy and sell on it regularly. Just have to weed out the idiots. Pretty easily done...after all, they're idiots. :lol:
