I think it's turning into, "This is what I want to sell, and this is how much I need to make rent."

Re: Man, people in my town are crazy on Craigslist!
It's not at all like that on Nashville's Craigslist. I guess because there's so many musicians around here that people just know not to do stupid stuff like that. However, there is the occasional idiot here and there that will do something like that. When they do post an ad like that, they get called out on it too. I've seen a few ads where people will call somebody out and tell them that they are a moron for asking a certain price for something because it's not worth anything near what they're asking.

I saw a guy post a year old used Jet City JCA20H and matching 1x12 cab for $400 (brand new at Musicians Friend $349 + free shipping). He tried to justify the price by saying he paid over $500 for it "and had the receipts to prove it".

Here's a local one. Too bad this person is insane as I would be interested in buying this if it were priced more realistically.
Discontinued doesn't = rare, and rare doesn't = valuable. Its just a $500 guitar.

There has never been alot of nicer stuff posted locally, and it's always over priced if it is (Gibson, USA Fenders, PRS Marshall/Mesa etc.)
99% of what's posted around here is cheap import stuff priced around new price. Also tons of "home dealers" that grab up just about anything that does pop up for a normal used price then relist at almost new price for some "retail style" number like $399, when the new one would be $439 from MF.
2 years ago, it was all deals everywhere.
Nashville and Atlanta have a lot of good deals come up on import cheapies because there are so many more musicians and stuff for sale which makes for great competition. Occasionally, a nice high end something will pop up for a deal that's too good not to go get as well.

It's not that hard to spot a Chinese fake. Tons of tell-tale signs if you know what to look for.
