amheck Posted November 17, 2022 Share Posted November 17, 2022 what's the scam with these? You can never seem them in person? And they wait for someone to send them money to hold them or have them shipped or something? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
someduder Posted November 17, 2022 Share Posted November 17, 2022 These are definitely a scam. actual seller is in Washington ... someone posted the ebay ad and here is the craigslist ad: (2) Klipsch La Scala Speakers - Black Birch - electronics - by owner... (craigslist.org) . I have been in contact with the seller in Wa and while I have not seen the speakers in person, I am relatively positive he does have them for sale. When I contacted the Wa seller he was at like 3500 for the pair and I could not get him to budge on price so I moved on. The Houston ad definitely lifted the pics. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I responded last week to his Heresy add in Atlanta with a question and “Dave” got back to me in what seemed a very polite and knowledgeable manner. When I said my brother lived 7 miles away (which was true) and he’d pick them up and pay full price, he never replied (even though the add remained up). Obviously looking for someone to bite on shipping 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously looking for someone to bite on shipping I saw it while at work in Atlanta when the ad was 15 minutes old and almost replied. I talked myself out of it and posted the link here. Since then it keeps popping up. I flag it almost everyday since. CL needs a better way to screen ads that get flagged from being reposted.

Heaterman Posted November 18, 2022 Share Posted November 18, 2022 Someone got tired of this scammer on CL in San Francisco and made his own listing…. LOL https://sfbay.craigslist.org/sfc/ele/7549775982.html 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
