Perhaps a Craiglist armed robbery that went well as in the bad guys did not get what they wanted. Tried to get more info, but this one is sketchy and had no sympathetic victim to be milked, so i expect a dismissal from the editor’s attention.
I think Craiglist is the Mos Eisley of interweb sales. But that is just my very opinionated view… these are not the ads you are looking for.
I stay away from Craigslist. There’s not really anything on there I need enough to take a chance on meeting a total stranger, even at high noon in the Wal-Mart parking lot.
I’ve bought and sold plenty of things on Craigslist without a problem, ranging from $40 tools up to an old diamond ring. But I’m sure where you live has a sizeable effect on your success rate. Granted, I’m never unarmed when I’m selling anything either.
