something happened to me on Craigslist and I’m angry about it I’m Sarah from Arlington Texas let’s talk about that [Music] [Applause] [Music] this episode is brought to you by rode microphones the microphones we use in the field to make our videos sound good Craigslist have you bought a lot of stuff on Craigslist you know I think it’s for us are you talking about here I’m moving away from the eBay and moving into the Craigslist world especially living here in LA because everybody close to me has something that I want you I have it shipped yeah they got everything here it’s a beautiful arrangement you know and it’s got a peace sign as the icon which I guess makes me feel peaceful until something happens like what happened to me Oh at the last time tried to use Craigslist huh huh calm down a little bit I want you to bust a blood vessel or something okay okay okay okay so I decided I wanted to get a backpack baby carrier and I was gonna look on Craigslist for this thing for yourself but I guess 50% for me and 50% for land oh my two-year-old who I want to go hiking with my family but dragging a two-year-old by the hand gets old really quickly he’ll you can’t don’t you can’t do this he’ll never learn how to hike on his own so you’re gonna say walk I was like he has had a walk right he’s beginning to walk you have to let him do it well he’s a tot he’s a toddler and toddling on the edge of any sort of precipice is stupid you know I’m a father you give him this backpack I’ve got a three-year-old kid Shepherd I know we didn’t do the backpack thing with him and you kept him in it in a in a trailer one of those trailers with the bigger wheels didn’t you know drug him around then why do fly let him walk I’ll let him learn where the edge of the cliff is you have them on a leash no I’ve just got on there I’m like a cat I got cat-like reflexes I said we went we went to the Grand Canyon we asked people about kids going over the edge and we heard horror stories about not taking them to the Grand Canyon yeah that’s where I’m going I’m going to the I’m going to the hills baby I’m going to the top but if you day if you give him this backpack what’s gonna happen if you let him live in this backpack while you hide he’s gonna be eight years old he’s gonna be back there he’s gonna be he’ll be fifteen he’ll be a 16 year old with his driver’s license Vic dad can I get in the backpack and go hiking with him so it’s a great idea I decided to get one and it’s great idea to get one on Craigslist I think I fell I find this I find this one you know they want $60 for it Ripoff over here close by and like yes this is great I email the person and I say hey I’m sure I said my name is Charles you know I don’t know why I just our official link sounds like somebody’s gonna rip you off well I’ve since changed my mind that now I’m gonna say link and put my website down there because they’re like oh if they’re a fan maybe they’ll give me a discount no don’t do that that’s a mistake okay so that’s it hi I’m Charles I live nearby would you take fifty five dollars I can come by and I said Saturday night or Sunday night you made an offer a low little low off look you know five dollars off Maggie I was sold out they’re not insulting just look and I gave a time that I’m picking up so the guy replies back and he says $55 will work tech here’s my cellphone number text me when you’re on your way I guess he didn’t want to give the address so that I would sneak by in the middle of light and try to steal it or something uh well I think that’s a common practice he wanted to be ready you might be like in the shower or something you don’t want to have to be selling something on Craigslist naked so two days later Saturday rolls around I text the guy say hey I’m ready whenever you are to come pick up the kids backpack carrier I’m Charles from Craigslist yeah of course I know you Charles any any texts moves your website and I’m like I’m like okay Christy let’s get Lando ready let’s get all the kids in the car cuz you got to put them in they’re gonna go over there we’re gonna we’re gonna fit him in there make sure I were to try it out I dropped fifty five bones on this thing please go get used to it as I’m scrambling he did text me back and says oh I sold I sold it to someone else this morning period send and I immediately wrote back it’s funny the first thing I wrote back immediately okay send I don’t know why I had such a knee-jerk reaction it’d just be like okay so sorry to bother you okay and then I I was telling Christy that punk yeah sold it out from under me that makes you miss like it’s like there and I was like crap I don’t even think you should have this contraption and it makes me mad and then I decided I’m gonna text this guy a piece of my mind yeah that’s how you do it you text them so I got on that text again and I said listen buddy it’s I didn’t say buddy I said listen period Oh space space : note period listen period space space let me let you just if you agree on a price and a time to pick up an item you shouldn’t sell it out from under somebody’s period space space sin nope sorry I could have been looking elsewhere period yeah boy stur waste of my time smiley face no and then I said oh well that’s just in it and then I wait and you know with the new eyePHONE kind of thing you can see when they’re tight oh yeah I love that I had seen no response and absolutely looking at girl fuming backpack area I’ll put this guy in a backpack here threw him over a precipice and then I see the cloud pop up the dot comes right on something he’s typing stuff that’s coming back yes yes yes it’s taking a while this guy’s he’s got a great explanation everyone’s gonna feel good after I get this maybe he’ll go back and get it from the guy sorry period and so I was you know I at least wanted some sort of a text rage rebuttal or does mine was the sorry sighs it was satisfying for me to hit that first send yeah you know well not the okay but the second sin that one was satisfied and then the third one was almost emasculating but maybe the guy won’t do it again it’s wrong isn’t it people yeah I think that this is bad Craigslist etiquette I I also think you know not to continue to judge California versus North Carolina which we often do but I just not that it couldn’t happen in North Carolina but it seems less likely that this would happen on your word is your bond is a little bit more theme in the south right out here is sort of like you know wheeling and dealing if somebody shows up early I’m giving them the freaking thing dude get over it sorry period send they know I mean II know it’s it’s human it’s human to keep your word you know if you agree on a price and a time it’s sold it’s over it’s over like I got some value I confess to you dick Craigslist Craig was you you have my carrier I’m that guy no no cuz you know my missus not all of a sudden you gonna be hey let’s go hiking you got Shepherd in the carrier oh it wasn’t you it wasn’t me but I feel okay I feel partially responsible for something related okay so you didn’t contact the guy and say hey that’s a stupid idea don’t sell it to it the last I don’t know this dude the last thing I bought on Craigslist was also for my child it was a set of junior golf clubs for luck my oldest kid my 8 year old we’re getting into the golf you know cool like that country clubbers not really public horses out here and we I was like I want to get him some clubs and you should get him long clubs because he’s gonna be 15 he’s gonna say hey Dad I want to go back to two foot tall clubs today dude shit yeah so I get him I decided by these clubs for him and I in and so I emailed the guy and he wanted 50 or something so I said hey how about 40 no and he’s and he says you know what I’ve actually already committed to selling these for 40 dollars to someone else tomorrow but if you can come over tonight and get them I’ll give them to you and you said no I said alright I’ll be right over yeah what yeah the window the window was closing that’s no the window was closed he had already sold it no no he he wasn’t being a man about I think what he did is wrong but I think I’m in the clear nothing I just you know hey fall in your court you could have you could have at least texted them something rageful like I would never do that it’s like when somebody gives you an extra birth you’re in space space there’s an extra burger and your happy meal it’s their mistake but hey it’s a free burger buddy I’m gonna eat it and enjoy it it’s just a couple of golf clubs and a junior set $40 ok people but now it in the comments tell us what would you do if you were selling something and then someone gave the same price but we’ll pick it up earlier is it you know once you agree on a price and a time to pick it up can you sell it out from under them if someone wants to come earlier or if you know about it as a purchaser should you say okay yeah I’ll swoop in and take those golf clubs or that baby carrot I’ll gladly deprive this other child of his development in the area of golf or loving nature my son we’ve been in like a hawk my assumption was that the dude would maybe call the other guy be like hey I got somebody who come in at night maybe you know I don’t know I just he was the only $40 set of golf clubs on the entire Craig’s List are you apologizing well now that I know know know that there was some guy out there wasn’t you who wanted to go him yeah he’d spoil it leave yeah if you’re that guy who wanted to get some golf clubs for $40 and some guy said you know what I sold him to some tall guy last night I apologized and anytime you want to come over and swing the swing around I mean yeah it’s like there’s Sharon you know what I don’t play we don’t play golf every day you want to play with them for free you can play with them and for that guy who’s hiking with his kid in my backpack carrier out there watching right now yeah you I accept your apology but you’ll need to text me and I’ll paint it’s time to come pick it up and yeah yeah if you’ve used it a couple of times I’ll just knock you know not five dollars off the price I’m gonna give you you don’t hike every day it’s not too late for you to make it right you should be sharing it I think that’s what we ought to do people should just share stuff more alright look that look the comments speak their mind I actually got another carrier already I emailed two people the next day of two more that I found and then I found one and the guy said yeah pick it up at 11 a.m. and then at 10:45 he emails me one more time and says my wife changed my mind I’m not selling oh well that’s a test if that was the second one when a woman has involved anything in that and but then I got the third one how do we in this episode become time Siamese twins we miss felt Siamese but that’s okay where do we want to be joined all right well in like the elbow really if you want let’s be joined like totally right here well they do most famous Siamese twins in history we’re joined like this and do you know that like the their share alone these guys actually each had a wife which I don’t know how that worked but it was like hey man me and Cheryl are going to chuck-e-cheese tonight you guys are welcome to come oh really thanks for inviting me you know Betty she doesn’t like chuck-e-cheese she’s she’s a grown woman she can stay home I don’t care I mean this is our date night dude yeah but you know I’m the one with the stomach here so I think I get to make the eating decisions we decided that back in third grade were they pretty much my stomach got just everything they pretty much had pizza you have the lung I have the stomach you decide what we breathe I decide what we eat there’s two lungs man yeah we each have one you know that oh you’ve known that first year we sure I get most of this with now [Music] [Applause] [Music]
