Craigslist.org

Craigslist never ceases to amaze me. It just works, and it's free for almost everyone (unless you consider the demise of US newspapers a cost - just kidding, sort of). In the last month I rented an apartment, bought a desk, and sold concert tickets all on Craigslist completely painlessly. Got to love it.

I have to say I love the site, but you do have to be a little cautious on there just because there are so many people out to scam others.

I have sold and purchased many items on this site and overall love it. It allows many different things be listed and you can find hard to find items even.

Overall I highly recommend this site.

Craigslist.org is like an online Pennysaver that you can check every day to find new ads for things you may need or want. I had listed a house for rent last year on craigslist and my ad was copied and used by an offshore scam ring to solicit deposits and rent checks from unsuspecting prospective tenants. I had to immediately remove the listing and post the home for rent in the newspaper.

There are some scammers lurking there but, for the most part, if you want or need to sell something this is a great place to go. I would suggest that you always have someone with you when you either go to purchase or have someone come to your destination to purchase from you, for safety measures.

With any second hand purchase you run the risk of purchasing something procured in an illegal manner but your own personal filter and personal choice can work that out.

All in all, it is a great place to go for a used product and, sometimes discounted new products.

This site is amazing I use it to post my listings to sell stuff I don't need anymore and I think it has made me about $500 in total so far, I love this site

But you have to beware of some scamers.

The one site I rely on for pretty much everything is craigslist. I sold my couch, bought a new TV and found an apartment all for free. I even got a job doing promo work for a night at a local club. The only thing I am wary of is the online dating part of craigslist. I will say I have a friend who used it and found a boyfriend but it seemed like it wasn't as good as match or eharmony. Then again, free is free.

Craigslist.... what more needs to be said? It's good and it's bad. I've found a lot of great deals on craigslist and even found some jobs, but I've also met some really crazy people. One word of advice: don't use your real email with craigslist. Create a fake "craigslist only" email address. I sold this one guy some computer software. I get a call the next day from the guy saying he couldn't figure out how to install it! I tried to help but he just couldn't figure it out, and I couldn't understand the problem because it's as simple as putting it in the DVD drive and clicking "install". I started to feel like he was playing dumb, like maybe he installed it already and wanted a way to get the money back anyway. Finally just told him I couldn't help him. He posted my full name, my email, my phone number and my license plate on craigslist! I gave him back all his money so he'd remove the info. Oh well, just be careful on this website.

craigslist is terrific! you can buy, sell and trade practically everything! Not to mention meet some real interesting creepers. Their jobs could use a little upgrade though... maybe they could use something like http://stusjobs.com and post job listings for free and list jobs my location.

Yeah Craig! Your list rocks! - It's great to have a forum where you can sell/buy items, houses, etc with out having to walk around town posting fliers on every single tree. Not to mention I have successfully found a great home for all my furniture in record time and had 3 great roommate situations all in the name of Craig! Here Here.

Great website for almost anyone. My family and I have purchased many items for greatly discounted prices from very nice people. Extremely reliable site. However, when making purchases locally and picking things up we always travel in pairs to the pick-up sites, just to be safe. Amazing site!

FREE STUFF ... do I need to say more ? You can often find people giving away items if they are moving or no longer need it. It is like an online garage sale everyday of the week. Plus the jobs section is great and updated daily.

find anything - craigs list is wonderful you can find anything u want and sometimes things you dont ! just a wonderful site for what you are looking for

Craigslist is so riddled with unwanted solicitations and scams and when you meet someone to sell or buy your stuff it better be in a public place.
Or you better be armed because you either have money to buy or you have something of value they want.
So just be careful all the time and be in public.
Meet at a police station a library or other government building by a court house with lots of cameras and witnesses and police sheriffs around.

I have purchased or sold a ton of stuff on this site. Never had a problem. Just use common sense and you'll be fine. AND IT'S FREE!!!! Thanks!!!

I was debating between "Meh." and "Cool" Overall Craigslist works and I've used it. I think it's great in terms of having lots of good deals listed and the service is free so that's cool. The selection is also great...if you can find it. A few reasons why I gave it 2 and not 3 stars is the spam postings, the scammers, and just the overall usability of the site. If it could improve on those things, Craigslist would really be awesome.

BEWARE of craiglist you can get scammed and craiglist will do nothing about it. So, I would be very caution in dealing with craiglist. My sister lost over $3000.00, and craiglist hasnt done nothing about the scam artist being on their web site. I think this is a problem and a big X in my mind to stay away from craiglist.

I think craigslist rocks
If only they can get rid of those damn "can i send you a money order" scammers
