Would you buy jewelry off of craigslist?

[sgluckadoo]

I have a lot of semiprecious jewelry (mostly rings) - not real expensive pieces. Sterling, 10k gold with stones like aquamarine, amethyst, etc. They aren't cheap costume pieces by any means, but not more than $100 or so each. I would like to sell them as I cannot wear them and get no use out of them. I have tried going to jewelers with no luck and *bleep* shops just offer price of gold which is next to nothing and these are not junk or broken pieces. i was thinking about selling on craigslist but wondered if people actually would buy from there. Any thoughts?

Yes Craigslist is a great option. I had a Galaxy SIII and posted it on Craigslist. Within 2 days My new phone that I had, I was getting texted like crazy after a week I had a buyer he came to my house and picked it up sold for 75.00 . So I would post them if I were you. I want to post other stuff as well.

I would not buy anything off of craiglist.  There has been so many stories about people selling items and when they meet to make the exchange, they get hurt.

That's why you have to do some real research before you do any kind of business with other people. Also if your going to sell something have them meet you on your turf not theirs, or in a public place where there is a lot of people. The people that get hurt are people that are careless in there decisions.

with all the beatings and killings associated with craigslist, you are only asking for trouble, but to each their own

I would probably not just because i would assume it was stolen or something of that nature it just seems wrong and werid to me, just my opinion.

[sgluckadoo]

Well it isn't the feedback I was hoping for, but it does tell me information I need to know. I just do not know how I am going to sell these items.

If you have any doubt about whether or not to buy something online, then don't. It's possible it could be a stolen item or a fake. It's just not worth it.

Personally speaking, I would not trust anything that is being sold on Craigslist, Ebay, or any other related website. Craigslist especially has a questionable reputation after that rapist/killer located his victims using the website. That particular case alone forever turned me off to Craigslist. :-(

[ghunter]

Sorry, I don't trust Craigslist, maybe you should try Ebay.

I would not buy a single thing off of craigslist with all of the people who have been set up and killed for whatever reason.  I'm very surprised that the government has not had the site taken down.!

I will not buy in Craigslist so scary.

[bowrunner]

There has been so many bad stories about CraigsList that I think I would be afraid of it.  I've not had any problems with anything I bought off of EBay or Amazon.

I dont understand you people, have you ever tried selling something online, cause if not dont knock it until you try it. Like I said I have sold a cell phone on craigslist and had 100% success with my sell. You guys read into things way too much.
