Dear Mr. Old Man...

.....When I called you this morning in regards to the white wicker patio furniture you were selling on Craigslist.com and I told you that I would like to purchase it and you were a-okay with it. And then when I called you again in the afternoon to see what time you would like me to come by and pick the pieces up and you tell me between 5:30 and 6:00pm and I drive a good 45 minutes away to go to your house with my Dad in tow, and arrive at 5:45 just to find out that someone just came and got them????? Are you serious? I just spoke with you an hour ago and you said to come get them... and then your sell them to someone else? REALLLLLLL CLASSY!!

Not amused... AND very disappointed,
Carrie


This my friends is why I have never ever purchased anything from Craigslist or the paper.... because it's just my luck that something like this would happen to me!

  1. People on Craigslist are SHADDY!!!
    It's sad that people don't trust others & won't do a good deed...like simply hold the item for you. I mean H.E.L.L.O you told him you were on your way over. AND you called more than once.
    I would have held it for you...but that's just me i guess. I was raised with manners as he obviously was not :)- Lol

  3. I've had that happen before too, on the other hand Tink just bought a trampoline off craigslist and it was a good deal. all it needed was some cleaning up (and me to dis-assembly and assembly it).
