KD in CA Posted March 27, 2008 Posted March 27, 2008 Seems like a pretty clear case of B&E. All those idiots should be locked up.
Steely Dan Posted March 27, 2008 Posted March 27, 2008 I hope they catch the people who stole and the people who posted the ad. What a bunch of Fumducks.
GoodBye Posted March 27, 2008 Posted March 27, 2008 I wonder if this has anything to do with all this insane amounts of rain we get? Does something to the brain??

agilen Posted March 28, 2008 Posted March 28, 2008 A while back when I lived in CT, I had a set of snow tires for a car that I sold. The tires were still in great shape, and they were mounted on steel wheels. So I was trying to sell them for a long time, a few people were interested but they didn't fit on their cars. Now, demand for snow tires in southwestern CT isn't particularly high...people just tend to crash when it snows Anyway, I was asking for like $100 obo (original retail with the wheels was like $500), and had essentially no interest. So, I finally had to just get rid of these things, so I threw the ad on the Free section of Craigslist. I had between 20 and 30 emails in less than 5 minutes, and the flood continued for days (even when I removed the ad). The person who came first to get the tires was exactly the kind of person who would have shown up at this poor dude's house and taken everything...he was saying "you sure you don't have anything else to give away?" Something really clicks in people's minds when they see "free", they think they have to have whatever this item is.
