Craigslist: the good, the bad, & the DERP!

[Azazell0]

Explain Craigslist for us non-americans in 10 words or less.

Like wanted ads in a newspaper but online and free.

[Azazell0]

That's what I thought, yeah. We have some similar services here (like www.tori.fi )but they are rather notorious for having a lot of cheaters and people who simply have no idea on the value of stuff they're selling. Sometimes you can make incredible deals, sometimes they are asking for 200 € for a NES 8-bit without any games.

Sounds exactly like CL :/

I always find good deals on craigs in my town.

yesterday
a n64 with 2 controllers all cables with 6 games mostly sports & 2 pocket gameboys silver/extreme green with 3 games for $30 bucks

and
 another n64 complete with expansion pak and 12 games for $40 with mario kart ,diddy racing ,yoshi,banjo,and other common games for $40, will list the consoles on craigs again and keep the games and gameboys...

One thing to note here in Las Vegas most people I bought stuff on craigs look like junkies , and games always smells like cigarettes maybe that's the reason for the good prices on stuff here....

I know exactly what you mean. Damn near everything in New England smells like stinky cigarette smoke. Pretty much all the games I buy out here get a Goo Gone bath before joining my collection.

I'm considering making an offer. What do you guys think?

[wiggy]

Man, 175 doesn't seem to bad for that at all.  I'd prolly just go 150.  I see Tecmo Bowl III CIB in there.  I think that on its own is worth a few bucks, is it not?

I say go for it too, seems worth the price.

[xn30warriorx]

That is a fantastic price for all of that! Especially with a lot of it being CIB. I mean I paid more than that for my sealed Albert Odyssey on my Saturn alone! Grab it while you can and trade/sell what you don't need or aren't interested in.

 You might be able to take it for $150, but low balling can be tricky. The price is fair. I would just buy it for $175 before someone else does.

Guys, only the SNES is $175, not the SNES and games.

[wiggy]

Derp on all of us :/

Yeah, eff that.

[FritzWhite]

Yeah, I didn't read carefully either. $175 for a SNES? No thanks..

If all of that was $175, my mind would be BLOWN!
