Never really got into craigslist.  My friend has gotten a few good deals from there but I can normally find things elsewhere.  Plus I never really liked the fact that there isn't much to the site.  It might've changed since the last time I was on there, but that kinda turned me off.

I think craigslist is great-and count my blessings every time no serial killers get in contact! Besides the danger, (like being in a stadium full of strangers, ofCOURSE there is danger, stranger!) craigslist has helped me get jobs, free stuff, and provides me with a place to advertise for my own agenda! bwaaahahahaha.

 Yes, I go on craig's list.  I have sold furniture on there that I was just tired of.  My daughter got a lot of her baby gear there, stollers, high chairs etc.  My other daughter has even got 2 different part times jobs on it.  So far no dangerous strangers!  LOL

Yes, I too frequent the craigslist website!  It is such an ingenious idea that is great for the community.  You can save so much money by buying someone else's stuff they no longer want, and the forum of craigslist allows people to communicate this desire easily.  Especially when you're in the car search, craigslist comes in real handy!!!  :thumbsup:

You betcha.  Ones mans junk is another mans treasure.  My mother-in-law just had a bout with her tv this last time comcast changed out there system.  She was blaming comcast for it.  We found a $20 t.v. just 2 miles away from her home  - picked it up had it all hooked up by the time she received her new receiver from comcast she just had to plug it in and boom - she was good to go.  I've gotten a few things off of there.  Some things were even FREE.

I go on there occasionally but I have never bought anything on there.  I do know a ton of people who buy and sell things on there though.  I do plan on selling on there in the future.

my son goes to craigslist Longhorn I do he. He buys and sells things on craigslist every now and then he found some boat motors for our boat that we hope they will work. I don't know how to work on bulk orders so I found a guy that will work on for me but he's been so busy I have them get him into him. See if they will work

I look at jobs there, post when I have free items I am putting outside and used to get free things for my clients, too.  When I had to hire people, I had the VERY best luck posting jobs there.  Great response!

I like to go to find jobs but there is a lot of crap to weed through. I was looking the other day for garage sales too. I think the site is ok, but they need more people watching what gets posted.

Never been on Craigslist, and I probably never will. I don't think I've ever even been on eBay either. Don't really have a need to. I prefer not to use things like that, but I have used Amazon a few times.

I used to go on Craigslist to advertise my business but all i get is alot of crap. I keep getting emails about my account being suspended becaue of "misbehavior". I wrote them back and told them that it was a big waste of time and to delelte my account and still for a year later I got them. I had to delete my email account and make another! How frustrating.

Almost every vehicle I've ever owned has been purchased from an ad placed by someone (either owner or car dealership rep) on Craigslist and now that I am in the process of relocating out of state I am searching for homes online via several different sites, one of which being Craigslist.  You have to be careful of scammers, but overall it's a pretty good resource.  Oh! and I love their free section lol

I tried to sell a vehicle on Craigslist a couple of years ago but only received one reply and I had it under the BlueBook price.

I have sold a car, two tv's, a bicycle, 2 sets of car tires, an old camera, tools, a dvd player, and a couple other items i can't remember--all on craigslist. I have only bought 2 things from craigslist though--my car, my wife's car! I have also found a couple side gigs for easy cash on there, and my wife applied for some jobs and got one at a bank that she first applied for based on a craigslist ad.  I guess it's obvious--i kinda like craigslist :BangHead:

I don't go on Craigslist often.  However, I do use Craigslist to publicize upcoming events at my work place.

Post by: coulsongirls on June 02, 2012, 08:22:39 am
I don't use it. In the past I've looked on it and found 1 thing....many times I didn't even get a reply from the seller.  Then all the scammers and criminals started using it. If I"m looking for something the first place I go to is freecycle, I get great stuff on there and it's free Plus I can give others things I don't want but don't want to throw away.  Especially where I am there are a ton of scammers on Craigslist doing the phony house rental or house sales. But I do have friends who still use it and like it.
