That's my experience.  Often people don't know what they have, and thus the
prices are waaay high or waaay low.

I've never seen a Craigslist ad that talked about shipping.  Really, it's
local-only.

Of all things I've bought a used vehicle through Craigslist.  I went in
very skeptical, but the seller disclosed exactly what was and was not working
and I am satisfied with what I got, half a year later.

A lot of the other ads selling similar trucks were ... sketchy.  YMMV.
