I did get ghosted several times, however. People wanting more photos or
videos, asking questions that I answered and never heard from them again,
etc. There was also an Ardent school teacher who was practically penniless

I'm pretty sure you were in a different price bracket. That alone will weed out
a lot of the idiots. Maybe.
I'm pretty sure that a lot of the "is it available" one line inquires are
automated and if I answered them I'd get strung along into some kind of scam
attempt that involved Amazon gift
I just sold my 1983 300 TD W123 Wagon on Craigslist. I got quite a few
responses including a gentleman who already had a 300 CD with the same
color scheme who had always wanted to own a turbo diesel wagon. The cost of
the transaction to me was $10 for two CL listings.

I drove them a bit when they were new. I thought the B class was a really
neat car. Not really what you'd expect from a Mercedes, but very useful
space in a small car and well designed. And fun to drive. The low range
is not an issue around town.

Some card issuers used to have "one time use" numbers that you could use for
online shopping. I'm not sure how many still do, I think many have transitioned
to "digital wallets" and stuff that I don't understand so refuse to use.

If it is above a certain amount I get a ping from my bank to approve the

has a risk, but over some years I have never had a problem.
