Aloha Friday - Craigslist


Aloha Fridays are brought to you by Kailani from An Island Life. Over there in Hawaii, Aloha Friday is the day that they take it easy and look forward to the weekend. So Kailani thought that on Fridays she would take it easy on posting, too. So, for Aloha Friday, I’ll ask a simple question for you to answer. Answer my question and put one of your own up on your blog. Link up and check out other blogs that participate at An Island Life.



Have you ever bought or sold anything on Craigslist?


I have been selling a few things here and there lately to make some extra cash and clear out my garage at the same time. I love it! I get pretty good money for things that I don't want or need anymore and more space in my garage, double bonus! I have purchased some great furniture from others on Craigslist too. I was able to furnish my Emilio's nursery with furniture that looked brand new and at half the price. Same with my guest bedroom. So that's why my question is, have you ever bought or sold anything on Craigslist?

I have only used Craigslist for advertising events. I prefer eBay for selling.

some friends have..I have not done that yet, been thinking about it.
No, I have never bought/sold anything on it. I know a lot of people who have had great success stories with it.
my hubby just bought a smoker from Craigslist..he got a great deal and it was pretty local, so he just met the guy half way

Nope, never.
Come and have a look at my birthday giveaway (see left sidebar).
I have never sold anything on it, but I have bought a stroller on it a couple years ago.

I sold some cloth diaper laundry soap that didn't work for me on craigs list. I lost money on the deal, but at least it was out of my house and I had cash in my pocket :)

I sold my car on Craigslist. The whole deal went pretty well until the end and the buyer managed to screw me out of $300 dollars but I needed to get out of making payments, so I bit the bullet and finished the deal.

I have bought and sold many many things on Craigslist. Actually I have advertised my yard sales on there too which is GREAT advertising! Recently, we just sold our wooden play structure from Costco on Craigslist...like last week. That was awesome and last week I bought an AMAZING GE Refrigerator, black only 2 yrs old for $500. A guy had short sold his house that he was in for less than 3 years and wanted to make money on the appliances! I love craigslist!
