It is in good condition. I barely used it.
I need for you to pick it up and pay for it in person. I am not willing to ship it.
Thank you,
Heather

It is at this point that I loose my patience. I HATE... absolutely HATE scam artists. Which part of this are they missing. Who is still falling for these scams?? Why can't someone stop these people??

Ok, which part of that second sentence did you miss?
I am NOT willing to ship it.
If you want it... you come and get it and pay me for it when you come.

Someday I'll learn to read all the new posts before making stupid comments. $250? Seriously?
I'm from a small town so maybe I'm naive... How is that a scam and where do they benefit?
I am so with you cousin. I hate all the scammers on Craigslist or who send you e-mails that you've won some stupid European lottery. It's all garbage. The other day I even got a scam e-mail from a guy posing as an Iraq war vet who wanted to smuggle money out of the country. I sent him this really nasty e-mail then went to msn and asked them to shut down his e-mail account. I was that mad.
I've found when I'm selling something on Craigslist I just give my phone number. Only people who are truly interested will call and you can get a feel for how serious they are too.
