Re: Membership requirements for potential renters ($9.99 fee) (by Phil L.):
jayjay Redweek is not in the business of policing the entire internet for scammers.
You always preached safety as factor for the fee and now because of scams on Redweek your changing your reason or I would hope your thinking about the reason for fee.
What good does it do anyone that gets scam that Redweek bans them. How does this in anyway get them their money back,"It doesn't".
Craigslist is a free and very good site but as on all forums you must be careful while using it! I sold our daughter's car in 2006 when for graduation we gave her a new car. Sold it in one week for $16500 to a family in Henderson Nevada. I sold one timeshare in 2004 off CL in couple weeks and have rented twice when we stopped owning timeshares. We sold full bedroom set 2008 for $400 and it only took one day and never had a scam problem. You list free and have all e-mails go through Craigslist so you choose who you deal with and scammers don't have your information unless you give it to one just like on Redweek.
