--- Quote from: J_K_M_A_N on January 25, 2007, 02:19:11 pm ---I JUST got screwed on craigslist. A guy was offering an xbox for $60 and I told him I would give him $50 for just the box and he said ok. I was getting the pickup set up and then he emailed me and said someone offered more money and he sold it to them.

Ass hole.

What would you have done in that situation had you been the seller?

Ass hole.
J_K_M_A_N:
I would have taken the money of course! It still sucks for me though!

Ten bucks?  Familiar with the saying "you're only as good as your word"?  Essentially, this guy's word is worth a measly ten dollars.

J_K's not out any money, but a deal had been made.  I guarantee if something like that happened on these boards to one of you giving J_K flak, there'd be some bitching going on.

Had it been me (and it has been on occasion), I'd go with the deal that was made first.  It's just good business.

ChadTower:

I agree that the initial deal should have been honored.  That doesn't mean J_K_M_A_N actually lost anything, though.

Craiglist is mostly scammers and idiots.  I wonder which attracts the other.

Well, I must admit I'm not really familiar with the policies and workings of craigslist. Is it just like classified ads? Or more like ebay, where you commit to buying something?
