Can't really verify anything from Craigslist.
The qualifications for posting an ad on Craigslist are pretty high. Much like a forum, you need a phone/tablet and also....an Internet connection.
The site is a disaster. Chronic spamming of ads and 3-4 auto replies when you post an add.
I recently had someone text me "I'm interested in your item, but I'm deaf....blah, blah."
I thought, a deaf person wanting a used guitar....hmmm. A regular Beethoven.
