A video game store owner in Sacramento, California, is selling his store, its entire stock of over 20,000 games, and a 15-foot-tall Mario effigy on Craigslist for $1 million.

Rare Lamborghini Countach Listed for $3.8M on Craigslist

A new Lamborghini Countach LPI 800-4 is up for sale on Craigslist for $3.8 million. The limited-production supercar has only 96 kilometers on the odometer and still has protective plastic on the seats. The car pays homage to the original Countach LP400 with a vintage-inspired design, but it's an Aventador underneath the skin. While Craigslist has been a go-to marketplace for car enthusiasts for decades, selling something as special and limited as a Countach seems better suited for something like duPont Registry.
