Craigslist

Appears to be a running, but very rough car. Could easily be broken up for at least $4000 in parts.

I always feel bad when you guys cross post this stuff on 914club.

You are hurting the people who take the time to scan Craigslist every day in search of a 914 bargain.  Once a post like this hits the club, 50 highly motivated people all run at once to buy.  It benefits the seller tremendously but not the avg Joe buyer.  Same thing is true of ebay auctions.  Cross posting on the club is the best free advertising a seller could ever get, especially when it's a "diamond in the rough" deal like this one could be.

Anyone else have opinions about this?
Disclaimer: I am just griping out loud, no personal offense meant to ANYONE by what I say.

Craigslist used to be a nice little secret. Oh well. I scored a good running '74 2L with a 5 lug conversion for $1800 one time and a free 1.7 (that nobody wanted) and a free set of SSIs that came with it.

So Jeff, did you call the guy? I'd be all over this if I had time and space.

I like Craigslist, the price is right (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/laugh.gif)

Listing ads should be no big deal. To find a deal you'd have to check CL, 914club, eBay, or other sites every day every hour. Who does that? Ok, I may but how many people do that at the same time? Even the free 914's require someone to have the space, tow means, and time. Who has all of that? Technology has made the world smaller and information more available but we are also more financially, space, or time broke...
