It might be worth mentioning that there are a few people on Craigslist using the old "Ebay" Scam.
Posting a (Telluride Bluegrass Festival) ticket for sale. Then when someone responds to the post, the seller explains how they are new to Craigslist and are not comfortable with it yet. Hence, the seller will suggest that "We have to use Ebay for the transaction". Then they try to send a link that looks like an Ebay link, but it's a fake.

If you run a cross this, keep in mind that anyone who is comfortable with Ebay is surely comfortable with PayPal. PayPal is a much better resource for a monetary transaction of this size.

Hope we all get to Telluride this year for sure, but please be careful in the mean time.

Best regards,
Dinger
