It seems to be a bit flaky at the moment. I thought it was just me but if you are having problems I guess it may be with CL.

Sold my Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 for $275 cash to a well dressed gentleman and woman. The Two one hundred dollar bills and fifty dollar bill were counterfeit. So I got $25. I should have examined the notes except I don't know what I'm looking for. Anyway I did not suspect anything. they were relaxed and drank my coffee.

haaaaaaa! You're on a roll...
Never had a problem making sales on Craigslist. But I don't physically come off as harmless either.. that may be a reason for the few no-show's I've had over the years.

No, you're not entitled to your own opinion, you're only entitled to what you can argue for.
Otherwise, don't start.

There was an article stating someone was making a deal through Cragislist at a mall, The seller ended up getting pepper sprayed and the scammer jacked the item and left.
2 other people got sprayed by accident, Poor them. Lol.

Mind as well try spending it.
you got screwed brah
there are so many easy security checks on canadian bills. 
Although I do admit that I remember my first HP printer made such realistic prints that at first glance a photocopied bill looked pretty real. The colours were right on. The minute you focused onto the object you would know it's fake though.

note to self: not to accept large bills when selling on craigslist or kijiji... but usually for counterfeits, you feel the texture of the paper, look at the colour of the ink, and the detail of the print. I know a friend who works at the bank told me for the old bills, one of the easiest ways is to look at the rings inside the eyes. if they are detailed, then they are real, if they're murkey or thick, then fake... but for the new plastic ones, dont know but there should be some halo graphics?
