Re: Craigslist nightmares and dreams... funny stories

I was just at a local Walmart and saw they had a couple of the neon green Thruster Fixie bikes on clearance for $69. Now I'll just sit back & wait for them to pop up on CL for $150.....

http://sacramento.craigslist.org/bik/3891872751.html

Selling a pair of 1976 Schwinn bicentennial Sting Ray's, boys 5 speed and a girls coaster brake. Selling as a pair for $600 obo, will not separate so don't ask. All original Schwinn, no after market parts used. Bikes are in very good condition. "


I think the price is a bit high, but if you ever wanted a his N hers pair in decent condition, this would be the pair to get.

Re: Craigslist nightmares and dreams... funny stories

Here is a CL story that could have been a nightmare. My son recently sold his Playstation on CL. I told him to meet any buyers in a public space. When he left, he told me he was meeting the guy at a gas station that I knew was a busy location. I asked if he was going alone, and he was not, he was taking a friend of his (they both play lacrosse and are good size kids) the next day I asked him how it went. He told me that when he arrived at the gas station, and texted the guy, the guy says "hey, we are at this motel, could you come on over here? My son, who I have tried to raise without my cynicism says "Sure!" They go to this no tell motel, go into the guys room, set the game up and demo it for him, he offers them a joint, they decline (I hope) and leave. Fortunately everything turned out fine, but geez, he has no idea what he let himself into. I asked him "what do you think someone was doing at a motel like that?" His response "I just figured they were on vacation and their game broke" BTW, this all happened around 10:00 PM, which was much later than when he left the house.

He is lucky that he didn't end up on the 11 o'clock news.
Gotta be careful.
