I would almost guarantee 100% you are getting scammed. STAY AWAY FROM THIS GUY. If he wants to sell the seats badly enough he will decide to sell via Paypal. Otherwise you are at a huge risk of losing a lot of money. One of the #1 rules on craigslist is you don't do deals that involve checks, bank wiring, weird money transfer methods, etc. CASH (in person) AND PAYPAL ONLY. I know you want the seats, but trust me, you don't want them bad enough to deal with a a scammer. Even if this guy is not a scammer, he has already shown that he is weird, paranoid and probably a nightmare to deal with.

:confused: he's selling them on Craigs List but doesn't trust YOU because you found them on Craigs List?! Lol:confused:

craig's list a spooky place...

At first he asked me to come and pick up the seats in person. May be he knew that I am not going to fly there to pick them up. Though in his post he asked for a local pick up and it was his idea to ask a forum member to come and look at them first. So I really dont know if he was trying to scam me. Either way I am not sending someone I dont know money with out using paypal. They have things in place to protect you and protect the seller. So I did some more looking and found a guy that is selling the same seats for a little more but he accepts and has been easy to work with. In the end I have no idea if he was scamming me but I am not going to find out.

I am right there with you blackcherry20, I was also very confused when he said that.

It sure is Kenchan it sure is :eek:

Good for you on passing the deal. I know it sucks to think you're passing up a better deal, but you just have to assume it was "too good to be true". Usually it is good to trust your instincts when it comes to craiglist. It can be just as bad when you're selling items as buying, because a seller usually gets 5 spam offers to every real offer, at least in my experience. Whether or not the guy was a scammer, you can rest easy knowing you didn't have to deal with the drama.
