Sell things for Free on craig's list

I have just discovered a new web-site called craig's list. It costs nothing to sell and is localized to your geographic area. Beats the you know what out of e-bay. Used it this week for the first time and sold $500 worth. It even pays to try and sell something for $10. It's all local so there is no need to ship anything.

Hey.....come on guys.... he is new to this forum.

Bushman....in the "search" bar at the top of this forum, enter the word "craigslist", and you'll see why these guys are prodding you.

Actually, he joined 02/07 and you joined 08/08 - who's new now??

But yeah, most guys on here already know about craigslist, and for those who don't, bushman just helped you out.

My wife is talking about getting a second job because of craigslist..........

How cool is that!?!?

Actually her reasoning was when we want a new toy (guns, minis, etc.), the cash will be there.

There is another "Local List" that everyone can get on. I haven't heard anyone here mention called "free-cycle". It is a yahoo group that you join for free. Everything is free. If you try to sell anything they will boot you from the group. You can get some good deals on there as well, but parts for mini's would be pretty rare. However you can post a "wanted" ad, and see if you get any responses. I think you go to freecycle.org and sign up for your zip code area. Anyone else here use it?

I dunno about your area but the Freecycle group here has turned into more of people begging for laptops, cars, cell phones etc. Or people just wanting you to rid their yard of junk. I dunno maybe you could get lucky in your area, but if anything interesting comes up... People bombard the giver with 100's of e-mails, so even if you find something you want, chances are very slim that you will get it.
