CL is cash only for me. If a check was the only way to get paid i would insist they meet me at my bank where the check would be verified before the sale went through. I always insist on cash though. I have sold a couple rvs on CL and insisted on cash. One gal i made give me 10k in cash. She was a bit put out that i wouldnt trust her check. lol.

I've taken and given a check for stuff on craigslist, but I deposit it immediately (and told them to do the same), and made a copy of their driver's license.

and the guy I bought something from that was paid with check got my phone number and called me on the spot so he could be sure he had MY number as well.

in days like these, with how much identity theft and burner cells... I wouldn't take the risk no matter what they gave me.
