I just remember an event that make me feel so stupid :). Everyone hates to admit that they’re stupid right? – No, ok then. Well there was this one time, I was looking for an iphone 3g 4g, then I saw a very cheap one posted on craigslist, the price was cheap, but not too cheap to say it as fake, it has phone# of the person and so on. – So I contacted the seller and ask for the condition, he said it’s brand new and guy seems to be honest on the phone, the way he talk seems to be straight forward, then he asked how I want to do this – meet somewhere or come to his house, I told him let’s meet at mcdonald, so I drove for 45 minutes to that mcdonald and gave him a call, and he answered and saids he’ll be right out there, so I waited 10mins nothing, so I called again and this time no answer, so I grew skeptical – Then I saw more people pulling in to this mcdonald, almost all of them didn’t get out of there car and just sit, a few came to the front door of mcdonald, looking around – Then I grew more skeptical and at this point I know I’m being prank trick by cruel fake seller on craigslist.com. Those people are there on the parking lot or at mcdonald front door I’m sure no doubt they all came here for the same reason waiting to see the iphone to buy. Some of them left, and so I left as I well, never in my life feel so stupid, trust people too much. So the point I’m trying to make is, be careful with craigslist, not just craigslist but all advertisement classifieds, if asking to meet somewhere to do transaction – be sure that the seller shows up, how do we make sure? you can’t 🙂 just stay away from craigslist if I were you, the seller can give fake house# to go to or waiting to rob you or take your life or rape you 🙂 be aware, be wary, the craigslist killer. So stay away. You can get stuff from ebay, it’s cheap and more secure, just do some research – if you’re willing to meet for some transaction why not just go to the store and buy, saving a few bucks is not worth it. You can split payments now a day through your bank credit card or the store without interest charge for 6mos or so.
