I recently sold a high ticket bicycle on CL, it sold in about 6hrs. Here are some things i had to weed through,
Buyers wanting to 10% over list to hold it until they could come over
Wanting to pay with things other than cash
E-mails with no return address
After 1 hour I took down the e-mail response, only allowing phone calls to respond. I got at least 6 bogus calls.
Unblocked calls only accepted and only with there full name, address and email contact.
I hooked up with a guy who called me and followed up with his business e-mail address which i could respond back too. Finally a solid contact who came over after work with cash.
