Craigslist does work, I sold my Nintendo WII
Two months ago on a Friday night i put my wife's old Honda Civic on it and the next day at 11:15 am it was sold for $ 1,400.00
yesterday morning i put my semi-new Nintendo WII and it was sold last night at 7pm for $ 500.00 Now i'd like to put my mother in law on Craigslist but probably she wouldn't sell even for free. |
So let's get this straight.
You advertised something as being for sale. And someone bought it. And you needed to tell this to hundreds of people. And then you made a bad 90's sitcom joke. |
Does the mother-in-law eat much?
|
good to hear craigslist came through for you
I've bought stuff from craigslist too, it's a good service |
Craigslist rocks
|
what a waste of a thread

You sold a wii for $500?
Was there a bag of blow in it? |
If you know what you're doing, CL can be a goldmine. Kijiji and Backpage rock too.
|
I heard you can find hookers on there.
|
a WII for $1,400? So did someone offer to give you a cashiers cheque for $2,500 and offer for you to keep the difference?

Craigs List is killing the newspaper industry. Newspaper classifieds were the bread and butter of their biz model, now everyone is using craigs list so there goes their ad revenue. You can't compete with a site that gets that much traffic and doesn't charge you a dime to post an ad. I think they do charge for Help Wanted ads now though. |

Fail................

My experience is just the opposite, you try to sell some $500 item on there, and idiots offer you $100 for it, then when you finally get someone who wants to pay a fair price they jerk you around... they say they will pick it up at 8pm, 70% of the time, they don't, don't even call... 20% fuck up in some other way, like don't bother writing down your address or fail to look up directions, so then you spend 30 mins giving idiots directions as they drive around your neighborhood in circles... only maybe 10% of the transactions are smooth...

congrats

Thanks for ruining a good thing, spammer. |
When I lived in Atlanta, I bought AND sold my car very quickly through Caiglist.
It really amazed me how well this site works. It actually took me 1 single day to sell my car. And people kept calling for at least 2-3 days. |

Nice! I sell baby gear and toys off as I stop using it and use the money to get new toys and clothes and stuff. It's great. I've sold about $300 worth of stuff in the past 2 months. I did sell an Xbox for like $350 within 12 hours once.
Not bad for a free service! |

Where were you living in Atlanta? |
I love craigslist, it ROCKS and I've been successful with it! :thumbsup
|
i was thinking of selling my xbox on craigslist
|
who'd pay $500 for a Wii when you can get one for $250 on Amazon? CL works but this story about the Wii has issues.
