I bought my Xbox 360 Elite from Craigslist. Unopened, mint-conditon, for 345$.

:D
Retail is ~450$

Have you ever read the 'Casual Encounters' part of craigslist?
My friends and I have, and it brings the lolz.

if people are willing to pay it, it's not ripping them off.

I've used craigs list before, yet if your looking for a pet go find a bargain trader for your area. You'll more than likely find a pet for free with all its stuff.

they could just look for it some where else
and you are contradicting yourself you said "withou them knowing"
Example:
you sell an item for twice the price the item's value without the costumer know it...
that's a ripp off right there because the costumber doesn't know that you are charging him twice the item's value

get what im trying to say... (im not good @ explaining things over the net)

Haha, if they are willing to pay that price when they could get it cheaper from someone else, you're not really ripping them off. I knew a kid who was addicted to craigslist. He would go on it everyday during study hall.

One time, there was a guy who offered his house to a girl who will cook for him, do minimal admnistrative work, and have sex regularly with him.
He put it up on the roommates section.

We found a babysitter through Craiglist.
She was quite good.

So basically, you can have legal prostitution if you word it otherwise?

I'm actually selling my guitar on Craigslist right now. I'm kind of sad because I love that guitar, but I never get time to play it anymore, and I could use the money. _unsure.gif
