Yet More Craigslist Stupidity!

My brain hurts...
 
Gahhhhh! I hate when people do that. "Brand new", yet they mention how they "barely use it anymore". Perhaps people really are confused about it what it means.

SAME here. I almost crapped myself when I saw someone trying to get rid of a PS2 for that price.

Yeah this seems odd to me too. A lot of the yahoo comments pretty much are saying its a scheme to beg for donations from the public.

So, after going down to WallyWorld and putting a few dollars down and reserving a deluxe Wii U with absolutely no lines and no problems, I put a post on craigslist letting people know that they can get one.
I get an email from "Chris" letting me know how stupid and ignorant I was. Well, I might be stupid.. and I might be ignorant... but I know not to troll with my real name.
Turns out that "Chris" works at GameStop here in Las Vegas and I guess is pimping out Wii U's and other "limited" items out of the store. I am sure he isn't the manager...
I don't hate the player... but c'mon ... don't put yourself out there like that buddy. It's bad enough when Joe Flippett is doing it... but this guy is part of the bigger picture of why consoles/games are "sold out" before they hit the market...
fuckfuckfuck
 
[quote name='highoffcoffee496']i feel so bad for those people :([/QUOTE]
I don't. At best, they sound like feeble idiots who apparently don't know how to lock a door or, at the very least, block it off. I'm with the folks who suspect a load of dishonesty on the family's part.

People began showing up hours before the posted time, and broke in. There was nobody home at the time.

Did anyone just watch dateline nbc? they showed the various illegal craigslist ads that occur. Everything from drugs to falsifying tax documents, to fake concert tickets to kidneys to an actual hitman. Chris Hansen met up with each sorta like he used to with pedofiles. God bless craigslist.

it's NOT ok to contact this poster with services or other commercial interests
 
It might just be the N64 itself and the guy figured that the ad's title had enough info and didn't need a description. That's what makes the most sense to me anyway.

You're giving the average craigslist poster way too much credit. That's what makes the most sense to me anyway. :D
