scam?
hello all...
recently i purchased a set of thule racks for my car off someone on criagslist. i read the model number wrong and turns out they didnt fit my yakima racks...ok well i post them up the next day for $90 and some guy emails me and said he was interested...we spoke on the phone and were supposed to meet but he said he coulndt then and would send me a check..
.
i was leary and then he later said he would send a money order...and then come and pick them up once i got it...he sounded shady but im not sure what to do...i have one other person interested and im sure its gonna be a lot less work. i just hate to do that to someone who is honest. advice? emails included
Are these still available?
Email xxxxx
thanks, john
OK..well, if they're available tomorrow when I call, we'll set something up.
Thanks- have to wait till payday!
ok..well, I can get down there for sure on sunday, cuz I have work tomorrow. Is
there number for your bro?
And are you selling those seperately or do you need to sell both? no big deal
either way.
thanks again
sunday after 4 is fine. I call you around lunchtime. hopefully there are still
around
in the mean time came the check/MO thing
(i told him to use the Post O so i could cash it there to make sure its legit)
No Prob..that's all I use anyways.

I always preface my craigslist adds with, first one to show up with the money gets the item. I will not hold it for anyone or save it for anyone.
