[QUOTE="nomowork, post: 326140, member: 6029"] I'll admit, I haven't read every post but seeing that I just sold my tin boat last week, here's a quick recap of what happened on Craig's List. I actually got about ten calls, most were legitimate, some were scams. Being a nice guy, I gave the first caller first crack at the boat as he seemed very interested, so I told him I would hold it for him till the next day when he could show up. Yup, you guessed it, a genuine flake. He never showed, never returned calls, etc., so I started calling other prospective buyers and informed them that it would be first come first served. About five buyers said they were on the way but only one showed up, with cash too! Sold it at my asking price and even gave him some extra things that I would no longer need for the tin. I told him about this forum, so hopefully he'll join. No more Mr. Nice Guy! [/QUOTE]
