I have never even looked at Craigslist until this past week. I see people here talking about it all the time so I took a look. I make clocks to sell and of late have not done that well with them, in the past I sold several a month.
I listed a couple of them on Craigslist and so far I have had some inquires but when I answer them they turn out to be religious fanatics or political extremists. Or someone trying to help me through this hard time by buying something they have they claim I can get rich with. One email is so long it would take all day to read it. All about what the government is doing wrong.
They have asked about my race, and if I am a mason, and do I have drugs to sell. They want old perception stuff.
Is this normal or what? I have the emails forwarded by Craigslist.
+1 on the spam/scams that plague Craigslist. I tried to sell a complete computer setup for a friend on Craigslist a while ago, the only inquiries I got were the bogus check/shipping scams, even though the ad stated 'cash and pickup only'.
