My personal experience with Craigslist as a buyer is that the item has been sold about 90% of the time even though the ad is still up. I bought another 10'9" IH37 disc last Saturday, seller was great but the ad is still up. I can somewhat understand someone asking first if the item is sold or not before going to the trouble to type up a bunch of questions in a text or email. On a piece of farm equipment calling is not always the most effective unless they are standing by the item as they forget half your questions when they get back to you.
My personal limit on cash transactions is about $1500. Just as possible that the ad is a robbery setup if they are demanding cash for a higher value item. For me anything over my cash limit, we are going to have to have our banks talk to work it out or I'll have to wait for pickup until my check clears. Anything over $10,000 in cash has to reported for withdrawal or deposit at a bank anyway and the Feds will be looking into you for money laundering so for sure I'm never going to pay for anything over 10,000 with anything other than a cashier's check or wire it.
I totally agree with seller rants on scams, etc. being a big turnoff for buyers. Saw one ad in the last week where a guy was selling a farm item for his dad and what a great guy he was and he said if you try to screw with him (negotiate?) I will come hunt you down and... Ad's still up on that one, lol. Mike

Today's Featured Article - Hydraulics - Cylinder Anatomy - by Curtis von Fange. Let’s make one more addition to our series on hydraulics. I’ve noticed a few questions in the comment section that could pertain to hydraulic cylinders so I thought we could take a short look at this real workhorse of the circuit. Cylinders are the reason for the hydraulic circuit. They take the fluid power delivered from the pump and magically change it into mechanical power. There are many types of cylinders that one might run across on a farm scenario. Each one could take a chapter in
