Anyone see those listing on Los Angeles Craigslist....

I tend to look for cars and parts cars (odd, I know right??) and there is this website called Direct Auto LA seems to be scraping craigslist and ebay ads and redirecting them to their website.

At times, I have found the original CL ad, and the price listed is significantly less.

If you run this search:

los angeles cars & trucks - all classifieds "View more pictures, details and information on our website" - craigslist

you will see that they have over 2500 ads running.

If you follow their links, sometimes they take you to ebay auctions, but usually they've already ended.

Anyone know anything about these guys?

it only proves that CL is an unmonitored piece of junk. It makes ebay look good
