Craigslist is your friend

We have successfully sold our first item over Craigslist. A little bit ago, the dryer finally went kaput. We went the upgrade route and picked up a brand new set of LG high efficiency appliances. They work great, but I can't help but miss the old trusty agitator. With all of the technology that goes into the machines nowadays, there has to be a point where just the physical nature of the 'back and forth' is enough to get the job done right.

Since the dryer failed, we couldn't turn around and sell it. But we decided to try and sell the washing machine. We had a hit immediately, but the buyer never re-contacted us. After a few more weeks, Tammy got another call and with a couple of days of back and forth making sure the unit was what they were looking for - we sold it.

The buyer showed up, gave us our money and brought a friend to load up the machine into their truck. Easy transaction.

I'm sure not all Craigslist buys are this easy - but it's nice to know that it does work.
