    How does the buyer get the purchased item?
    Community Answer
    They have to pick it up, or the seller will drop it off. It depends on how the buyer and seller deal it out.

  • Question
    Will the person I buy from send me the item?
    Community Answer
    Not usually. Typically, he or she will set up a time and place with you to meet up. During this time, you will pay for the product, and he or she will give you the product.

    Where do I get the seller's phone number?
    Community Answer
    Click "reply" at the top of the page the item is on. If the seller has provided a phone number, it will appear on the list. If not, you can always email the person and ask them for their phone number.

  • Question
    Is there a secure site through Craigslist where I can make a purchase? I have an offer that is almost too good to be true. We are at the point for me to buy the product and I'm unsure.
    Community Answer
    If it's almost too good to be true, then it probably is. I would take extreme caution and insist on doing this transaction in person.
