I've also given up on selling via CL because of the scammers. Now I donate to the local Goodwill or other charity (women's shelters want cellphones, for example), and take the tax write-off.
- 18pfsmt 14y agoCould explain how buyers could scam you using Craigslist? Just make it cash only, no?
- NoPiece 14y agoI think it isn't that you end up getting scammed on craigslist, but that 9 out of ten replies are from scammers. It creates annoying overhead in sorting them out. -- Hi! I am buying this as gift for my Son. Are you firm on the price? Email me back please,though, you may send me a text on the number below because I am hearing impaired but I think email is the best for me. -- Hello, i saw your listing on craigslist and Am wondering if the item is still for sale. Please do let me know if I'm still able to purchase as i am willing and ready to make purchase,get back to me with the condition asap.Thanks

- mibbitier 14y agoNo, because most cellphones/iPods etc will be subject to scammers. These devices are absolutely simple for scammers to work with. They're high value, cheap to post, and can easily be swapped with phoney/broken identical devices.
