What value is gained by these ridicules CL ads, I can't believe anyone responds to them. Are these POS being paid for every ad or just stupidity run amuck?

GulfStream&^% business Jet like knew 550 model low hours #### won't last long at $3000.

They are lame on purpose to weed out all but the most gullible, so the scammer doesn't waste his time.

If it didn't work to (at least) some degree...they wouldn't be there...Same as spam e-mail...the reason it thrives is because it works...
...the scams work because some people are greedy...spam works because people are naive and weak...

IMO they welcome those trash and scams as it gives them huge listing numbers to brag about.

CL is run an a minimal staff basis and I presume fairly profitable.
They are covered as they publish all the required 'buyer beware' type of warnings.
