Yet More Craigslist Stupidity!

Thought this one was laughable, probably a kid:

Would anybody like to trade an iPod nano for dead island for the ps3 ? Text me at 740-919-xxxx or email me if you want to trade !

I thought you couldn't do this anymore..[/QUOTE]

Yeah, but that's not going to stop some people. I see stupid crap like game account item, shady gift card sales, console modding, and illegal copies of games all the time. These things are supposed to be prohibited, but it doesn't stop some people from putting up ads for these things anyhow.
 
Okay, so he's trying to sell a display. Some people collect them. If you're posting it because of the $9999, I highly doubt he's actually trying to get that much. It's most likely just to get attention.

I love this. Something about these ads and their staggering exaggeration of value is delicious.

It's not just the normal dumbfuck who priced something $5 less than gamestop or amazon's new price because he's an asshole, it's some honestly, legitimately clueless person who actually believes that they have some kind of treasure because they probably barely know how to read.

Like the asshole i posted trying to say that PSPs are sold for $500 in stores still. Laughing out Loud is overused, but that's exactly what I did to that.

The thing is, I -have- one of those 4 copies. They're worth about $1 a piece. So when we saw it, we were like, yea, $5,900 my ass. Only the full set of first UK edition go that high. First US editions are under $1,000. These are 10-20 years after the US first editions.
 
" do not no much about them i know they have a high dollar amount . We checked on the value and it's about $5900.00 or so"

so why don't you sell them for $5900 or so you illiterate fuckwit.

Any hard drive size for any iPad is a steal, so YES that is an amazing deal if legit.

As for the BF3 and Skyrim yeah, those are good.

Reminds me of a local thrift store I went to. When I asked about old games, they proceeded to show me their collection of "PlayStation games", which was actually a box full of Atari 2600 games and an N64 sport game.

"Xbox 360 4GB with all conecters owners manual and 3 controlers all in box, can deliver in the Parker area."

LOL, best part is the actual 360 box...no way in hell could this seller be that clueless - I mean can an original Xbox even FIT inside an empty X360's box (never mind packaging material and never mind the 3 controllers, two of which are freaking GAMECUBE controllers). Just noticed that the power supply is also a GC power supply, as well as 1 of the 2 AV cable sets are for GC/N64/SNES.

On second thought, I think you're right. This idiot probably got scammed by someone selling them that "360" with those 3 controllers...probably for the $200 they are asking, or more. If so, at least it's (slightly) better than if they had gotten a couple of bricks in the box. Or it could be they are trying to pull the scam on some unsuspecting, clueless idiot.

It's fun searching for trash talking ads/replies on craigslist. Searching for RE in titles often yields a treasure trove of funny as hell responses/replies to ads. Same with searching for scammer, flake, shithead, douchebag, etc. (don't forget to also search for plurals of those words, as IIRC craigslist search isn't coded to return ads containing for example scammers if you search for just scammer).

Just found this one via search for "douche" and had to share...favorite line:

"if this helps one person not be ripped off and takes away one chimichanga burrito from these thieves I will be satisfied."


"Scamber" alert!!! (is that a variant of an Amber alert, to notify people about scammers? :lol:). Love the narcotics keywords too, and in the health and beauty section. Is that where the "street pharmacists" post their ads on craigslist?

He is in the fucking 213 ghetto with a capitol shit stain.
How is it breathing in urine smell 24 hours a day?
Clearly you are where you should be. This is your lot in life.

Hi Brandon.
Your mommas a virgin and you are a butt baby.

Also - watch out for the load of fat ass MEXICANs driving an SUV.
I have been sent at least 5 e-mails from people telling me that they were burned by these cunts.
THEY ARE IN THE 213 also.
But they change their numbers so often it would be no use posting it.

Just boycott the entire fucking 213 shit hole!

I was also told about a few girls in eagle rock/glendale hustling and robbing.
Only thing I was told about them is that they are female and hispanic.

LA is great when you can get past these low lives that make up the stink.

Aside from these fuckers - there are some awesome legit people on here.

I have been posting this since December and I apologize. But if this helps one person not be ripped off and takes away one chimichanga burrito from these thieves I will be satisfied.

And to the douche bags that send me hate mail. Guess what motherfuckers??? I will never stop posting this ad.

(I'm sure he meant COD 4 Modern Warfare. But I think it's actually the future game since it's 40 bucks, and no one would try to sell COD 4 for 40 bucks would they?)
