Bonzo1 has already done all the research, it would be a shame if you did not learn from his experience.

Craig's list. Thorough investigation. Result = strong rip off.
OK, I was certain I could find a way to make this into a little gold mine, or at least pay some small dividends. I was sorely mistaken.
Over the past couple months I've tried out about 10 numbers from CG. I intentionally went for the ones that I thought were most likely to have real pictures (I. E. Not those obvious fake ones, ad said "100% really photo", etc.) , or in a few cases I just abandoned the idea that the girl would be the one in the photo and went for quality massage, service, etc.
Here are the results:
Number of photos that were real: ZERO.
Number of girls that said their photos were really, really, really real, even after questioning on phone: ALL OF THEM.
Number of girls that up-sold: ALL OF THEM.
Average price quoted on CG: 200 to 300 RMB.
Average starting asking price: 2000 (some even quoted prices for "happy" or "happy ending" online at 500 but immediately went up to 1500-2000 once in bed)
Average landing price: 1000 to 1500, and two girls left with nothing when I tried to bargain to 800.
Average quality of massage (1 to 10) : 1 (only because I didn't include zero as an option here)
Average quality of sex (1 to 10) : 5 or 6. A few did ok, none rocked my world.
Average looks for the girls: Surprisingly not bad in this category, but not nearly as good as the pictures, even the "natural looking" pictures.
Average punctuality: 30 min to 1 hour later than promised, and unbelievably three NO SHOWS (they messaged hours later saying they had been busy and could they come immediately now, but I never replied).
There seem to be a few adds on there for no up-selling (500, 700, and 800 prices listed right on the subject lines) , which are the three I didn't try since there's no way those photos are real. I should have though. Maybe I will sometime, but I'm so burned out on CG that I've had it for the time being. Anyone who has feel free to inform us.
Conclusion. Avoid CG like the plague and leave it to the business travelers who don't know any better or don't care.
Happy hunting.

[QUOTE=Smirnoff; 1143015]Hey this is my first time on the forum and in Shanghai. I am shy to go to bar or the massage place so I'm wondering what you guys think about the craigslist outcall? There seem to be a ton of advertisements offering oil massage for 300rmb. Is the oil massage what I think it is? Ha.
And I am wondering how safe it is to get a girl from craigslist, don't want police showing up on my door or a girl who is much worse looking than her photo! Thanks. Will write report about my experience with it if I do it. [/QUOTE]
