craigslist

I listed my used 2007suv with a broken excel in under a week for asking price on Craigslist! The ap was very easy to use, the pics looked great, and I only paid 5 bucks for the ad! It WAS going to be for a month, but Craigslist is everyone’s go to for just about everything second hand I sold it in under a week for asking price (I over priced it so a “potential buyer” could feel as if they talked me down) I got texts within an hour of posting on a Sunday night and a Atleast 2 texts a day asking about the truck. ) people were coming to see it Saturday and 3 people were supposed to come see it Sunday. One girl wanted really bad (lac of low mileage decent American made 4x4 for sale at a FAIR price) I told her that the first one to come with cash that will have it out of my yard by Monday can take it. Long story short- The girl got it, I brought it to her and everyone’s happy! Craigslist was easy to use for both buyer and seller and who can’t afford five bucks!

Their mobile app is a reasonably well-streamlined mobile interface, though not quantifiably more so than the existing mobile web site. Integration with your default mail app is different and one could argue is better, assuming that you're not using the Gmail client which is already part of the problem. There is also a way to save credit cards for payments, though I have no idea why you'd ever want to do that. Not once have I bought anything directly from Craigslists. Is this really a thing? Anyway, there is bad news: the login and authentication process is needlessly cumbersome. Logging into the mobile website if clearly more convenient as it doesn't obstruct you with its lukewarm integration with the password manager. Alternatively you can log in with email if you don't mind doing that every single time. The clunky authentication mechanism would be that much of a bother if I didn't find the app demanding my credentials so frequently because the auth tokens seem to only last a couple of weeks. This forces regular manual logins which usually require password changes because the app thinks you don't have a password saved. That last part is a genuine PITA. All in all it's fine, but unnecessary. You can easily live without it just using their fine mobile web site without feeling like you're missing anything, because you're not.

Craigslist may still have the same scammers they’ve always had so you still need to be aware of those. Follow craigslist suggestions by always taking cash, never except a check in the mail (common scam), never click on a link from a text message to “confirm your a real person”, and most importantly meet in a public safe meet up place. I it’s difficult to give suggestions for those that are moving and need to sell several large things. I have found it beneficial to meet them at the corner of your block. This will allow you to meet and document their car and even their identity. Have your large couch or dresser, etc. in your driveway or at least in your garage. Always best to have a buddy with you. Expect no-shows, beware of phone scams and people just wanting your identity, likely for creditors or further scams. Very useful to use a burner SIM card to avoid future phone spam. As many pitfalls as there are craigslist can still be the most effective way to sell your items quickly. Now you’ve given Craigslist much of your personal info, by installing the app and using. Other than ease-of-use you still may want to just use the website.
