heard multiple stories about what happened. most have already been posted here, here's another (involves CL too)

apparently buyer met up with seller to buy an ipad. buyer paid seller money, left. seller tried to mug buyer to steal ipad back. buyer lost control of car

Shorn 05-06-2011 10:52 AM

its not a c-lai. i know him.
the ipad story is correct. he drove the car into the mall because he lost control when the buyer tried to rob him.

please share, if you don't mind

how'd the seller try to mug him when he was already moving in the car?

So was the guy in the Lexus the buyer or seller?

- kT 05-06-2011 11:42 AM

^ buyer. bought the ipad. seller who sold him the ipad tried to mug him

gilly 05-06-2011 11:56 AM

^ if that story is true... damn.... i always buy/sell stuff from craigslist

Gumby 05-06-2011 12:00 PM

Wow usually you hear about the seller getting mugged, not the buyer!

it's true apparently, shorn (who knows the buyer/owner of the RX) confirmed it

kinda scary to hear. even while taking precautions like meeting at the mall, shit still happens

dachinesedude 05-06-2011 12:04 PM

im siding with Shorn on this one

it makes more sense for the buyer to try to mug the seller, to get his money back

- kT 05-06-2011 12:29 PM

well it works both ways imo. not clear on the full story, but buyer mugging seller to get his money back, or seller mugging buyer to get product back (especially since it was an ipad) makes sense both ways

cliffhanger33 05-06-2011 01:09 PM

This is scary Coz I always buy and sell off craigslist..... Dam

ontopic:

story is pretty intense, I always worry about CL transactions going wrong especially with big ticket items

CP.AR 05-06-2011 02:14 PM

was the iPad seller a tall tanned white man? about 6ft tall, skinny build, selling a 16gb iPad 2 perhaps?

I know this driver aswell. Story confirmed aswell.

Shitty when bad things happen to good ppl, or even attempted.

TheKingdom2000 05-06-2011 02:53 PM

interesting.
But, it sounds like your friend wasn't in the mall. He was simply outside the mall and the transaction took place inside his car?

I usually deal CL transactions outside Mcdix @ metro.
That's usually a good place. Or if we need to, we'll go inside Mcdix.

bcrdukes 05-06-2011 03:18 PM

I don't even bother with Craigslist anymore.

alex.w *// 05-06-2011 03:26 PM

buyer should of just locked all the doors and leave

Amuse 05-06-2011 03:42 PM

So more importantly, is the pregnant woman that was hit ok?

tool001 05-06-2011 04:55 PM

so who has the ipad now (buyer or seller) , i wanna buy one .:troll:

PornMaster 05-06-2011 05:51 PM

so wait a minute....

they were doing the transaction while the vehicle was MOVING?

if not how did they drive through the mall.

or was he like O SHIT IAM GETTING MUGGED *turn on car* VREEEOOOm

EmperorIS 05-06-2011 05:56 PM

^ LOL yea it makes no sense to me too ...
