This has been flagged by the idiots already but my hard link seems to still be working. I had fun doing it. Too bad the idiots flagged it already.....

That's weird, I guess it's cookied in my computer because the link works for me. It's just when I tried from the main site, it said flagged. Here's the copy/paste.

Okay Craigslisters, please listen to what I have to say. I've been coming to C/L for a couple years and would like to do my part to make this a better place to buy/sell.
Let me break this down.

1. C/L is a place where people (usually well educated) come to find deals. Please do not insult us with prices as high or higher than a new one. You're wasting your time as well.
2. If your guitar was made in Mexico (MIM)or where ever, just put it in the ad. It will save both parties time, full disclosure is the key.
3. If your item doesn't sell the first few times, take a hint. It's priced too high or an undesirable model/color/etc... Either adjust the price or take it to ebay.
4. If it has issues, (especially that don't show up in the pics) please put that in the ad. Maybe explain that's why it's priced a little low. (Remember the full disclosure thing?)
5. I never understood flagging a dealer, I mean I understand it may be a technicality, but if they are offering a great deal, I want to see it. (do you ever drive 5 over? Rules shmules)
6. What's up with "$1" in the title? Put the damn price in there. We know it's not a $1, but that's shady. Like a smoke and mirror used car trick.
7. A footnote to #2. Don't put "Les Paul" and then make us click it to realize it's a Epiphone. Put Epi (or Gibson) in the title (or MIM, Squire, etc etc.)
8. Delete your ad after your item sells.
9. Put pictures in the ad, I'm not trying to email you to look at your guitar. If you want to sell it, upload a couple pics, or even better, get a photobucket account.
10. Why bother putting an ad up if you won't answer your emails? I've tried to email a certain guy with certain guitar recently with no reply. (I guess he doesn't want to sell it.)

Anyway, I know this won't do any good, but figured those out there with common sense would at least get a kick out of it. Now send me all your guitars!!! LOL

And don't forget, when you get stuck in life:

Not everyone is out to help you!!!!
