I recently bought a longboard over craigslist, and I'm getting on to the bus the other day and some girl comes up to me saying that it was her boyfriendsboard...so I think shes trying to make small talk and just tell me its the same kind. I shrug it off but she insists that its her boyfriends actual board. Shetells me he left it on the bus a few days ago and hasn't seen it since. Now I bought this board about a week ago, so I'm thinking a dude found it andjust threw it right on CL. She takes down my number so we can talk about it later because I had been running late to class and needed to catch the bus. Sheinstead follows me to campus in her car, and when I get off the bus she is waiting there with a pretty much brand new replacement long board that was hers, andtells me she wants to switch it out because her BF loved his board. I paid $85 cash for the first one and the new one is waaaayyy better, so I feel really badnow. I'm assuming she wants to file a report somehow, but the thing is, dude who I had bought it from craigslist sold it to me at night at my door and Idon't really remember the guy enough to report him, plus all of the emails were sent through the sales@craigslist service, and I deleted them over theweekend. I feel terrible for making her give up her board, but then again I'm not gonna get screwed out of my money. There isn't much I can do legallysince like I said I have next to none of the transaction information...and now she keeps texting me asking me for info. Anyone got some advice as to what Ishould say to this chick, I just want this to be resolved asap I got too much stuff to worry about as is.
