I've bought some motorcycles and other ---- off there, but one thing is for sure, I don't have anyone pick anything up or go to pick anything up without my heater. There's plenty of cases of people picking things up and robbing the seller, etc...

One time I was giving away a bunch of kids toys and this beefy latina came to pick the ---- up. She was normal, but all of a sudden it was like she couldn't wait to leave. I think when I was helping her load toys into her car she saw the gat and got scared. haha.
wow steve, MN is more gangster than i thought. But yeah, CL is a bit shady. Not to mention all the **** on there trying to get laid by other ****. Its insane.

The very first line of my add explained that if you're not in my area and aren't willing to drive to my area, DON'T BOTHER ME. Located in Lake Havasu City, AZ 86403.

Do you know how many ------- retards emailed me asking where I am located? Jesus, how can so many people be so ------- dumb? Then this stupid bitch AND her husband emailed me like 400 times asking the same stupid ---- and kept telling me to call them. Everything they asked was listed in the ad and if they need to know more, INCLUDE YOUR QUESTION IN ONE OF THE 65 EMAILS YOU'RE GOING TO SEND ME TODAY!!!

I'm just disgusted. I'll stick to trying to sell locally since people out of the area seem to be completely ------- oblivious. I don't understand how these retards have made it this far in life without forgetting to breathe.

Next time I'm going to put "DO NOT EMAIL ME IF YOU DO NOT SPEAK ENGLISH OR YOU CANNOT PRODUCE A LEGIBLE SENTENCE IN PLAIN ENGLISH."

I take my number down and now these stupid ******* want me to call them. I keep telling these ------- retards to read the listing because it answers ALL of their questions and they keep sending the same fucked up email. I'm a craigslist noob so I don't know the scams that go around, but should I be preparred to put a bullet in one of these retards if I end up meeting them in person? I don't trust them at all and I'm getting 2 different emails, with the same last name, but different first names asking the same questions over and over and over. Is there a common scam that I don't know about? I thought it was just buyers who get scammed, not sellers?
that is not as bade as people that are ------- retardid posting ---- it the wrong places
like motorcycles in the electronics
car parts (especially rims because there is allot of nogs arround here) in the cars for sale section, i mean c'mon there is a car parts section and a section for complete cars you know?
also there is always ------- spam like make your dick bigger pills in the car parts section
that ---- pisses me off and when you offer a trade to someone that lists that they are interested in trades and they call you and say "no i am not interested in what you have to trade, but i have no problem with cash" i mean hey if i had the cash would i have offered the trade?

anyone else wonder why they put that stupid ---- at the bottom of their ads (random sentences, stories, etc)?...im beginning to think its some sort of code or something


edit: i think its to make the ad different so they can post it multiple times without CL noticing
