Gosh, I am a Craigslist junkie as well. I have sold and bought hundreds of items. And to be honest, I've had very few bad transactions. And even those weren't horrible – just a few no shows or people changing their mind. I mostly buy and sell kids things, which is nice because I mostly deal with moms!

I love Craiglist! We have used it many, many times to sell all sorts of stuff around our house! And I love to find bargains on just about anything you can imagine as well! Very true, though, you do have to use caution and beware of spammers…but totally worth it, if you're careful!

I am FRIGHTFULLY sorry about the triple posting of my link!! I refreshed several times over about an hour and it didn't show up – with all the Mr. Linky issues, I wanted to make sure it was there before I left the house this morning. UGH! If the powers that be would delete the duplicates, I'd surely appreciate it. Again, my apologies!

Another great online resource I've used is Freecycle.org There are local chapters you subscribe to and people post "OFFERS" and "WANTEDS" all for free! We've managed declutter our home, passing along things to those who needed them and have also scored some great finds: a smoothie machine, picture frames, bedroom set(old fashioned but perfect) and best of all beautiful playhouse for our daughter: http://rcherill.blogspot.com/2009/04/kids-only.html

I have sold my bed set on Craigslist before with no problems but I always made sure someone was with me during the sale. Now this was 3 years ago…today I will not sale or buy on Craigslist because of all the scammers that are on there.

I have sold and purchased a lot of items on Craigslist also. Unfortunately all of the bad things that happen do taint the process. When we sold our refrigerator the buyers were conviced we were out to scam them, and wouldn't you know when they moved it something came undone so when they went to set it up it really didn't work. It was awful they were so mad at us! But it was still under warranty and the reparimen assured them it was a great fridge and he fixed it at not cost!
