THIS IS WHY I HATE CRAIGSLIST
PREPARE FOR RANT
I messaged the kid to tell him tomorrow may not work because of work. He replied "ok"...few hours later i told him "i just heard from my boss and i can do tomorrow. He asks what time, i told him 4-430. He asks if im sure, i say yes unless something changes.
He then replies "yeah right youre just like the rest"....i replied "i haul milk and the schedule changes alot but im 100% serious"....he then replied "im from mars"...
Now i knew from talking to him on the phone he seemed a bit weird. Nice, but weird. Like...socially akward.
So i replied "look, ill bring cash money and if you got the title notorized ill bring it home"...
Got nothing back.
WTF? Do some of these frickin weirdos have nothing else better to do but sit on CL and post shit just to dick with people?
Im officially DONE with CL. Piss on it. its people like this that turned a good thing into nothing but a cesspool of taco bell shit.
Anyways...thanks for the replies guys...even if they were for nothing.

It's all terrible nowadays...Craigslist, FB marketplace, offerup, eBay etc...
Selling stuff was way easier before social media filled it spammers, scammers, and weirdos...

I have a bunch of stuff to sell and dreading it...bikes, vehicles, NOS parts, tools, big stuff like fuel cell and fiberglass bed cap, small random stuff like Leatherman tools and knives...I used to have no problem clearing inventory, it's such a hassle nowadays it's not worth any small ticket items...

This is what happens when low quality people (buyers and sellers alike) get a public forum like CL. They ruin it for everyone.

I think he sees Eddo’s post as a good opportunity.
