I do a lot of buying and selling on craigslist and I am cautious as a buyer also.
I would not give my name & phone number to a seller until I had
screened them some by anonymous email at first...
I have not followed through with many sales & buys because
the person could not communicate normally back & forth about the
item or I just got an "off" vibe from the communication.
Everybody has their slant.
A seller with good stuff to sell at a good price gets plenty of responses from people who are willing to purchase.

Agreed, I have seen this with furniture, (what I buy on Craigslist) that is well priced and in good condition. As long as it is not vintage (translation: old and ugly) and even then at the right price, you never know.
When I used to sell stuff via CL, I would always put the items in the garage, closest to the door. When the person arrived, I would open the garage door and meet them with the merchandise.....with baseball bat in hand.
However, now that I am physically compromised, there is no way I will do it anymore. It just is not worth the risk for as little as one gets in the grand scheme of things.
Some of our police stations here have CL locations painted out in their parking lots, under the lights and with cameras on. I wonder if your area has any of those?
