This came up as some fun in the just for fun thread. Post your stupid REAL Craigslist(or other) ads here. We could all use a laugh...I'll go first.

Hey Mona, figured you'd get in on this since we discussed the other day. Here's another one, an obvious fake(check out the decal) not really claiming to be authentic, but saying fender logo strat is a bit deceiving to the less educated.

The kind I like are like this:

"LIKE NEW ELECTRIC GUITAR AND AMP/WITH STAND 125.00"


Not a word about what kind of guitar or amp, no pictures, you just have to guess.

I posted on Craig's List a couple years back. Ended up with some Malware that I had to remove. There's always some guy on there correcting everybody's punctuation. This is usually the same guy that feels he has to "police" the message board. I hate Craigslist.

It's all part of the 'entertainment factor' of just browsing through
the ads. :D
