  • Craigslist responses?

    Anyone else have a guy names James Qualman that emails? Every time I list something he offers to come get it for free. Today, he emailed wanting me to give HIM $5 to come get an aquarium (18 gallon bowfront for $15) I am selling.

        18 tall, 20 wide, and it looks like about 12.5 at the deepest part of the bow front, deep.

                Not a bot, I actually gave him a couple of aquariums I didn't need and got in a trade quite a few months back when I got the same sort of email, left them outside on the driveway because he was coming over late, never even a thank you.
                Here is my CL ad, btw:


                18 gallon bowfront aquarium, used, no leaks
                Bowfront glass top
                Black gravel
                Old wood stand
                All for $15
                Alvin
                James Qualman please don't email me offering to CHARGE me for picking up this aquarium. Everyone is getting sick of your behind the scenes emailing for free stuff.

                  I have come to the conclusion that this person must be king of douchebagland. How rude!

                      Lucille,

                      Do you still have this for sale? I couldn't find your craigslist ad but wondered if you have any pics of it.

                          I have it for sale, the ad is still on cl as far as I know, picture is not really very good. I am about to give up on CL, someone said they would stop by and get it on the way home and they never showed.
                          If I have time tomorrow I might take another pic.

                            I've sold a lot of stuff on CL so don't give up. As far as Mr. I'll take it off your hands, you have to guess he has an acceptable hit ratio for him or he would stop. I think you said you gave him something. Enterprising individual. Wonder if he's just collecting stuff and reposting on CL to make some dough.

                              I don't know. I'm having an interesting ongoing email conversation with him, he sent me a snarky note when I told him to lay off, said he only got aquariums from friends and I wasn't a friend of his.
