He should have gotten it sold by escrow or conducted the transaction in a public space like Craigslist recommends. Like the detective said, he should have known better than to trust someone to buy something so valuable in private without holding him up.

So the lesson to be learned here is:
If you are going to sell something on Craigslist that is worth alot of money and could easily be fenced (such as jewery or high end electronics,) make the buyer meet you somewhere in public. Perferably, in front of your local courthouse or police station. If they refuse, then don't agree to sell it to them.

When meeting someone for the first time, please remember to:
* Insist on a public meeting place like a cafe
* Do not meet in a secluded place, or invite strangers into your home
* Be especially careful when buying/selling high value items
* Tell a friend or family member where you're going
* Take your cell phone along if you have one
* Consider having a friend accompany you
* Trust your instincts

They need to flash this on the post form.

That kid is a bigger person than I am.
What a fucking shame, they should send all 4 of these people to the fucking gallows for all I care.
