craigslist has thousands of items listed....and sellers are using Ebay/paypal...they won't give you and address or phone number....some claim to be dealers...I have found tractors/cars/trucks/quads listed for half price...but when you ask for information...they say it will be shipped to you.....how about requiring a viable phone number??  no phone number and they want Paypal.

one real way is to go and hand deliver the money, tell them you'll drive there to pick it up. Which isn't always doable.
