Craig's List Rocks

[ctfjr]

I listed my 'extra' motorcycle lift on Craig's List last night. In ten minutes it was sold. The buyer came over tonight & picked it up. I sold my GL1800 last September almost as fast.

Sounds like you under price your stuff.

What else do you have for sell? Maybe a FJR1300 for $2,000?

where Craigslist can really work for you is like this:

when you are looking for a good deal on something, save the search as an rss feed. Then the deals come to you and instead of having to regularly go look for your item, they just show up on your feed. I have been the first to call on a few items that I picked up for a bargain this way.

You can also setup a Google alert to do the same thing. I use Google alerts to search a number of topics (work related) I want to keep an eye one.

I sold my last Harley on Craigslist, and the one before that on eBay. Gotta love the internet!

lol - no I sold the '08 fjr for $1500 - after all I had 7500 miles on it

btw - I sold the lift for $50 more than I paid for it on ebay & my wing went for $9000 (with 130,000 miles on her)

Search by city/region/state/nation.

Seems to only work with Firefox.

I've had good luck with craigslist as a seller. Only PITA has been the fact that many of the items I have listed on there I clearly listed as PICK UP ONLY, yet 75% of my responses ask me to meet them halfway somewhere in timbukto, or they want me to bring it with me to work so they 'can look at it'. People I said PICK UP ONLY and I ride a motorcycle every day to work...I am not hauling a tractor into Lexington so you can look at it.

I've had decent enough luck on craigslist, although I do tend to get a lot of offers for trades...

Cash means dollars people, not rusted out beater cars...
