What kind of people go out of their way to arrange a meeting, text you an hour before the meeting claiming they're on their way, but end up not showing up or replying to texts.

Is there a way to get even with these pieces of trash?

I'm done dealing with CL people from here on out.

This was for selling purposes only, obviously.

Dating on "casual encounters" is a rough game. Twisted Evil

I had that happen to me twice. Once I was buying, and once selling.

Idiots. You don't want my awesome TV for cheap? Fine. Don't effing text me 50 times that day to confirm, then not show.

I also wanted to buy some cool artwork to decorate my place and the moron didn't want my money it seems.

I'm selling some Prostate health supplements that I had shipped to me in an order mix up on buy sell trade, btw if you're interested. I haven't got a prostate.

EXACTLY!

It's all about my time being wasted.

There's a special place in hell for these people(if hell existed)

Evil or Very Mad

What happened to my friend when he bailed on a sale once was the seller created a NEW listing using his phone number.

It was something like a 2003 (this happened in 2005) Honda Civic with 15,000 miles, leather seats, upgraded surround sound system, for 6,000USD.

So it was an absolute steal, but at the same time, realistic enough for people to bite.

Over the course of the next few weeks (months?), my friend got over 100 voice messages and a few hundred texts.

You could try that.

Brilliant, but I think CL requires you to have an email address attached with the account Sad

Haha. I guess, though, if it bothered you a lot, you could just make a spam e-mail addy. All you really need is the person's #.
