Right from the get go I knew it was a scam / robbery. I had someone say the same thing to me when i was trying to sell a bike "we can meet in the parking lot behind home depot so I can test ride it first". I said nope, I have no prob. coming straight to your house. Dude said he had to call me back... never did.

It also happen to a friend of mine (I met after the fact). He met up with 2 guys, one in a car (who stayed there) and the dude "buying" the bike. My buddy let dude test ride it and as soon as dude took off on the bike so did the car.

You can trust craigslist but never trust a situation like that!!

If they HAVE to meet you somewhere make it a police station parking lot.
