    What kind of person hands the item for sale to someone sitting in a car? You are just asking to be taken advantage of. I feel sorry for the guy but he is not very smart, thats for sure.

    If only everybody with an I-pod did the same thing. The audiophile world might have a chance at real sound once again. Eh, who am I kidding?

    I don't feel sorry for him, thats what you would call a short-cut to thinking.

    That's priceless. As far as the CL guy goes, he really needs a common sense transplant.

    Evolution is voluntary-you have to want it!

    That CCTV vid. would have been better served with some Curly Howard overdubs:

    "WOOWOOWOOWOOWOO" "NGNGNGNGNG" "Hey Moe, hey Larry, a Tarantula's got me!":eek::D
    I refuse to argue with idiots, because people can't tell the DIFFERENCE!

    Although I prefer the anonymity and safety of Ebay, it's more practical to sell bulky items on Craigslist. If at all possible, I don't even let prospective buyers into my house. A small item I will take out on the front porch. For something that requires a demonstration of functionality, I will put it in the garage. Although I'm sure 99% of Craigslist buyers are honest, these days you just can't be too careful.
