Craigslist Crazy!

July 1st, 2008 at 04:18 am



Before we left on our trip, I hired my nephew to come over and haul a bunch of furniture from all over the house, out to the garage. I then posted it on Craigslist. I like that it is free to post, but people sure string you along. I DID sell this lovely bedroom set and a chair. Then, the day before we left, I held a "quickie" garage sale and sold another chair and the day bed. We gave away a piece of exercise equipment to the people that bought the bedroom set (we just wanted it gone!) and I have to still get a headboard to a lady who says she wants it, but never shows up. I also have to post an entertainment center. Then after the sale, my daughters helped me haul everything to the thrift store. I feel so FREE and PURGED!! Smile I can't say the Craigslist expeience was wildly successful, but it wasn't bad.

    Yeah, sometimes that Craigslist can be hit or miss but I still use it. Good for you though!!

    Yay! The 'flag' system on Craig is very inconsistent though, ie I post my arts&crafts items in my local area and sometimes they are removed sometimes not.

    That is a very pretty bedroom set - I can see why it sold so easily. Congrats on the successful purge!

    I wonder if I should have charged more for the furniture. I sold the day bed at a huge loss.
