As some posters know I am looking for a very specific vehicle for my 14 YO sons first car. I have been deep diving on the web and mainly focusing on Craigslist and search engines that are based off of CL's. I am doing that because it's what I know, and I don't buy stuff very often and always go back to what worked in the past. Also used Auto trader and some other typical on line based resources and didn't get the results I wanted. I found that churning CL with different wording, spelling etc provided much different results.
I have also let some people at work know what I am looking for and today my safety guy told me he found several rigs to look at on his phone. He was using the "OfferUP" app. I had assumed most people still used CL to sell stuff, but this guy who is 10 years older than me who is in to jeep stuff showed me that this App had more hits for what I was looking for than CL.
Anyone have a good or bad experience with buying or selling with this app? I am buying so I know all the risk is on me, but is it replacing CL?
