I love craigs!! I have stated before that back in 05 when I began editing, I built an entire broadcast quality bay in my home off of craigs. It took quite a bit of driving over SoCal but it was worth it and I only got stuck for one out of ten or so items. A guy sold me a PAL deck that I was able to unload on a pawn shop.
When I need a durable item I will price it on ebay and search craigs before I do anything else
