Someone smarter than I...please enlighten me
why or why is it, that when someone posts about selling something/renting something/donating something, someone almost ALWAYS invariably "suggests" posting it on Craig's List?
I assume that people know just as much as I do about that stuff (if not more so,) so I generally keep my "helpful" ideas to myself.
are we stupider than I think? oh smart ones, please help me.
and no, I am not specifically talking about you, or you, or even you...I am talking about that one, way over there...
to CLARIFY...I am refering to posts when the OP states "I am selling/renting/giving away THIS. if you are interested, FM me"

Re: Someone smarter than I...please enlighten me
alot of people also get scammed on Craigslist..I was almost a victim of that "Nigerian" thing they had on the news...I'll no longer use Craigslist for anything!

hmmm...maybe, but then wouldn't you say "have you tried..Craig's list" rather than fully assuming one has not.
(and pfffftt to you for assuming you are smarter than me, Mrs. Mensa  )

Re: Someone smarter than I...please enlighten me
Well if someone asks where to sell/give something away....I would assume that they do not know about Craigslist....I dont understand the problem with suggesting that??

cuz, I didn't say when a person asks "where" to sell something. that would then be a helpful response.
I said WHEN a person posts something that they are selling on here (at least, I think I said that, but I will double check)

I agree, unless the poster states in their question that they've tried Craigslist (or any other venue for that matter) or are looking for something other than, I would think they didn't know about Craigslist or didn't think to use it.
ETS:
SCRATCH THAT!!! I read your question wrong.
To answer YOUR question: I don't know. It doesn't make sense. If they're selling something on this site and I wasn't interested in purchasing it, I wouldn't reply.

Yeah, but that's not what she asked. She's talking about someone selling something on this site. Not asking where to sell it.

Re: Someone smarter than I...please enlighten me
I actually understand where you're coming from bc I thought the same thing a few times I saw those posts...but like Chris said, sometimes people don't even realize that they can also post it on Craigslist...
There were many times where I posted a question with a very obvious answer but it did not click in until somebody mentioned it...

I am amazed, that after the 17 other clarifying posts on here, it's still being misread.
but, that's PROBABLY why we have Craigslist suggestions all the time, too.
