I bought an Apple iPad from a Craigslist seller that I had never met. The iPad was in excellent condition and worked great. It had a case and a charging cord, too. He told me that it had come from his deceased father. It was a fairly new model, and I paid a very fair price for it, too. It has served me very well. <br><br>I'd like to think that this is an instance where everyone benefited from the transaction. I got the iPad at a good price, and the seller probably needed the extra cash. He also got rid of something that held a lot of bad memories.
