I just sold a bike using CL here in Chicago a month back. I had 2 responses. The first sounded legit until the 2nd email about I am in so-and-so in the military. I was in the military and in so-and-so, so I was nice and said, "I wish an IED for you and your family". He didn't respond after that. The 2nd email was legit and the guy bought it before I could even respond. I stored my bike at my bike shop so the guy went there and paid for it. The shop put the money on my tab
