I had a guy come by and buy some snow tires once, he agreed to buy them, started putting them in his car and then wanted to negotiate me to a lower price! I was so mad because I stated it was a firm price! It was an awkward moment..but it turned out fine. I put a Bunn coffee maker on and 30 min later I had a call and it was taken within an hour..that was a record! You do have to be watchful for scammers, but it's a great free way to buy and sell!Lizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15375091482164484893noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3977307823050840802.post-44360870740381154332011-02-22T09:33:00.752-05:002011-02-22T09:33:00.752-05:00You have shown some wonderful pieces, Pam.

We tried local web "want ads", ebay, and then did Craigslist. Absolutely no problems! The nicest mother/daughter who bought it...this was a great little red VW Jetta in almost perfect condition. <br />On the other hand, I've never bought from Craigslist; it takes time to scour the ads and I just haven't done that yet! But I know my daughter has bought some great things in D.C.<br />I definitely think it depends on your location: the larger the "metro" area, the better your chances of good finds.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3977307823050840802.post-7175603328362038002011-02-17T09:52:20.264-05:002011-02-17T09:52:20.264-05:00Love your blog Pam, I too work as a kitchen & ...Love your blog Pam, I too work as a kitchen & Bathroom designer as well as having my own interior design company alongside although I am many miles over the pond in little blighty.

We have a few upscale consignment stores in our area that will come to your home and pick up the pieces, sell them and give you a cut. I think that's where a lot of the better things go. Wish I could find things like you did.Karen https://www.blogger.com/profile/02441070110507014088noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3977307823050840802.post-47351191145865402642011-02-17T08:05:22.913-05:002011-02-17T08:05:22.913-05:00Awesome finds....I have sold on Craig's list b...Awesome finds....I have sold on Craig's list but never bought.
