Would you ever ship something on craigslist?

I have a guy that sent me a US Postal MO and I kept all shipping paper work along with all our emails. It was a good experience. I wouldnt do paypal I would ask for a USPS Money Order.

shipping is fine as long as you know it's a legitimate guy with a legitimate paypal account. i actually purchased a set of wheels for my honda through some guy in texas on craigslist. i just used my paypal and he sent them right out. worked out perfectly. like some said, scammers are easy to spot.

I found someone selling an old orion 2150 on CL for dirt cheap and i asked if he would ship. I sent money to him via paypal and i got my amp. Went smooth.

So as long as they have paypal account with there bank account attached to it if they try and not sent the amp to me paypal will pull the funds right?

i ship stuff from craigslist. just make sure you get a tracking number and enter it on paypal if they file a claim.

Am trying to sell soemthing. A guy asked where it was made (its an older cb radio) and i answered him. He sent back that he was located in chicago and asked if i could send it to him and he would pay through paypal or moneyorder. Sooo, what do i do? tell him to fck off, or bite and ask him to send a MO and when it clears, wait a week then send it?

ask for a postal money order and make sure whoever it is puts their name and your name on the corresponding lines. that's the only way I'd do that kinda deal on craigslist
