Has anyone here EVER successfully sold a computer/electronic item on Craigslist before?

I bought an X-Box 360 for my son Wamamby, who is going to school in Tibet, and I wanted the seller to ship the item to my freight office in Guam and I tried to pay with Euros but for some reason I haven't received the X-Box yet.
 
I successfully sell on craigslists multiple times each week. Once you get into it, it is very easy to weed out the fraud, the dumbfvcks, and get down to business.

I love the lowballers on CL. When I list an item, I list higher than what I think I will get of course....haggling 101 there. Then someone will offer me 1/4 or 1/3 of my asking price so they can flip it on ebay. 😀 Come on people, I ebay more than I list on CL...I know what something is worth. :|
 
"I love the lowballers on CL."

I am having just the opposite situation. I am being offered 10 to 30% MORE for my item, a sure sign of a scam.

Congrats to everyone who has actually used Craigslist successfully.
