Craigslist Rant,, Yea,, I know....
Yea, I know those who have listed stuff there has delt with the crap, spammers, cons, and just plain idiots
 My rant is about the ladder I posted a few sets on BMW wheels that I have,, as I don't see myself owning another one any time soon, I checked eBay to see the currect market and stated that I was open to trades.. As soon as the ad went live, I gad a response, since the user name was ****2002 (there were letters, I just don't feel like posting his contact info) I mistakenly assumed that he must be a car guy. 1st he tells me the price is too high, so I reply that I checked the going rate but what would he offer, and added that I also had a set of 2002 ti wheels that I would part with. His reply to the offer for the old BMW rims was HUHH?? so I told him that I thought since he was replying to my BMW wheel ad and he had 2002 in his user name that maybe he had a BMW 2002 and said that I was open to trades and always looking for more Fuchs and attached this picture (still thinking that he is a Car guy)  Well, here is what he sent  Quote:
Boy, I was wrong thinking he was a car guy...

So far "knock on wood", I have had good CL luck, but there are some weirdos... Like the lady that called me about the riding mower I had for sale and in her best sexy voice stated " Is it fast... I really like em fast... I really love speed..."(repeat this about ten times, was the just of the conversation lol)

That's why I post my phone number. Anyway, the guy sounds like a loser.
Post his name so we can spam him wheel ads... |

2002 is probably when he started school or something. He sounds about 16. Its sad, it could be the date that he graduated high school which would put him at 26.
