Craigslist Seller Posts Hilariously Honest Description Of His $900 Car

Nov. 18 2019, Updated 2:17 p.m. ET

Buying stuff on Craigslist can be tricky. You have to be careful of the area you're meeting up in and make sure you get a couple of photos of the thing you're buying to make sure the seller isn't pulling the wool over your eyes.

You also have to make sure you agree on a price before meeting up, I can't count the number of times I've met up with someone and have them try to renegotiate on the spot - it's a pain in the butt.

And a good rule of thumb is that if a description of an item sounds too good to be true - it usually is. Especially when it comes to cars. I don't know much about how the darn things work aside from a few basics, and there are so many moving parts and circuits that could go wrong, I would have no idea.

But this Craigslist seller decided to keep it real.

His listing for the $900 rust-bucket was refreshingly honest.

It's a bit on the profane side, but I'd rather someone tell me like it is and cuss a little, than lie through their teeth politely. One of the best parts reads:

"You're getting 900 dollars worth of car. Don't ask me about the check engine light or this light or that light. It's 900 dollars... It has 200k plus miles. You d--n right u gone find something wrong with it but as for now it cranks."

Twitter, of course, found the poster's honesty hilarious.
