if you are dealing with CL total strangers then have to go with the 1st come 1st served no deals over the phone. I have bought a lot of stuff on CL, its amazing the stories I hear from sellers about folks that ask all kinds of detail questions, directions etc... and then never show up. I suppose after that happens a couple of times the no way are they going to listen to some story and hold something. Now what I have done esp if there are distances involved, is offer to paypal some good faith money, not a lot, like 10%. I tell them look if I am not there by X time, then you keep the money. That way the problem is mine not theirs about me showing up. And if you get there late and its gone too bad, you should have made better trip plans or it just your tough luck. I am not a lawyer, but in effect you have made a contract (exchange something of value in the deposit is important here IIRC) that you may actually be able to follow up on if someone actually accepts the paypal and then sells the item before the time has elapsed. Right now I have way more stuff than I need so my CL TV days are past. That being said I do have a ctc-5 super with a good CRT! one of my early CL scores.
