Was it a smoking hot deal or a big bust?!?!

I have been pretty darn Lucky on the site CraigsList.org in the past several years... Everything major I've purchased, I've done it from CraigsList (CL).

It all started about 5 years ago when we found a 1995 Tioga Arrow for sale and the headline read "**Divorce Special** Must Sell $3,000.50"... We piled in the car and drove for two hours in the mountains down a dirt road to find this thing... We pulled into the drive way and there sat "Bubba"... We were so skeptic we didn't even bring money with us... We drove Bubba fell in love with it and bought it... We had to go back to give them money and what not... but it was a great expierence...

Our next purchase was a 1985 Honda Big Red 3 wheeler, it was $150 and what we call the "Gateway Drug" that has lead us to own a total of somewhere around 7 ATVs now... One was purchased or actually traded for on CL.

Our last purchase was found on CL as well... A 1999 National Sea View 8330. It has 49k miles on it, ugly blue carpet, but we fell in love again, and sold off Bubba to the scrap yard (long story) and made room on the pad for The Beach House. We paid $13k for it, have owned it less than a month, haven't even used it yet, but are madly in love with it...

So what kind of deals have you seen... What kind of deal did you get?

What are some of the most outrageous things you've seen???

I know there are some bargin finders out there... Lets hear your stories!!
