Default Re: Where to list a Model A for sale?

I have bought and sold a lot of cars on Craigslist. You do get a lot of emails from weird characters. For-instance, "I am on an oil rig in the Caribbean, but will send you a deposit", "Would you like to donate it to charity", "I will send my agent to view the car and submit my offer" etc.

The best way to sort through the chaff is to advise that you will take no email inquires, period. They have to call a phone number. After your add is posted (an email address is required to post the ad) Then go into your email and create a spam block for the craigslist email address. Then you will only get calls and most likely from serious folks.

I found the process much better when I adopted that policy.
