Default For Craigslist Addicts

I was showing this to a new member and he had never seen it, so I figured I'd share it over here, too, in case some of my fellow craigslist junkies weren't aware of it....

When I first discovered it, it was quite the fix for me.

craiglook.com

It searches craigslist by distance, so you can simply fill out the search box and then use the slider to change how far away you want it to look.
Pretty handy.

Great find! Now I don't have to open 30 windows to find amusement like:
Honda CBR F4I ***ONLY 1600 MI*** - $8000 (Pottsville)

Especially when you can find stuff like this:
"Daughter bought this bike new in 2005 and drove it 178 miles before she got afraid of it. She thought she would get over her fear but she decided she never wants to ride it again. She now has decided to sell it ASAP to purchase a newer car. Call (773) 391-5716 for more details. Cash only, no trades. $4900 OBO."

Thanks for sharing, kilgore!

Oh yeah, I love some of these ads. Good stuff.
I saw one for an R1 the other day (I think it was an R1).
The guy said it was front end wrecked, but fixable. Only thing was that he only took pics of the back half of the bike...LOL..
And he wanted as much as a non-wrecked one...

"I'll just take pics of the rear-end and nobody will ever know!!"

The drop down for ordering the results is cool and combined with the price range parameters you can shop on a specific budget easily.
