Do people in raleigh use craigslist ? To sell and buy stuff.
Just wondering...
I am considering putting up some stuff in the "For sale" Section. Do people really come pickup the stuff or do they just waste your time? I guess I've never really actually used it until I needed to get rid of stuff.
I'm also reading the stuff in the pet section and If anyone is looking to adopt an animal ya'll should check the pets people have on there. There are so many out there looking for homes. Just thought I'd add that in to.

I LOVE craigslist and have purchased on number of things from there,, couch, bakers rack, pots & pans. I have had great luck and love everything I've
purchased.
Good luck and doesn't hurt to try! |

I use it all the time. People do often say they'll come pick something up and then no-show. The best way to ensure a sale is to sell at a low price so everyone wants to rush over to get it before the other guy.  I also sell on a first-come-first-serve basis and don't hold items. Whoever shows up first gets the prize. |

We sold our house on Craig's list as well as a coffee table, sofa, TV stand, mirrors, range hood etc.....I would say a good amount of people use it.

I sold a computer desk and computer monitor very quickly on Craigslist. Worked great.

I sold daughter's bedroom furniture and had people offering to pay more than what I had it listed for!
I've put listings on there and have had people call to ask questions but haven't sold one yet.

I bought an XM radio and found a dog I then adopted on a shelter list on Craigslist. Great experience with both of them.
