Success! First, I didn’t get jumped, and secondly, I got my money. After realizing the two canon flashes I had were not playing well with my Pocket Wizards (wireless recievers), It was time to get rid of them.
The first thought was that I would call up canon and have them take them back. Well that didn’t go over as I hoped. One of my co-workers suggested Craig’s List. I’ve never been a huge fan of those sites like ebay. However, I am now ok with Craig’s List. I posted up the info about the flashes like their condition, cost, and pictures of the flashes. The very next day I received three offers for the flashes. Evidently, I should have charged more.
So here is how the transaction went down, straight out of a movie. He emailed me his phone number and we came up with a meeting time and location. He wanted to meet at his bank to ge the rest of the cash. I had to be up in Norfolk anyways so it worked out well. I pulled in to the bank around 6:30pm as it was bitch black. He checked out the goods. Tested the flashes and gave me the cash. We then went our separate ways. It was a weird experience to say the least. But all in all it worked out to both of our benefits.
