Re: my first craigslist experience
do you honestly think anyone is going to pay $900 for a used 42" tv though? I can get a 1080p 42" for less than that at every Walmart in America. When did it retail for 2k? A year ago? This is like me trying to sell my year old computer for 50% of what I paid for it, which it probably isn't worth.

Re: my first craigslist experience
Craigslist is [censored], I was selling a nice office chair for 15$ just to get rid of it, I had put up like 3 pictures of the chair and So many people kept writing to me asking if they could come see it. I was like WTF who comes to see a chair that is 15$. Either you need it or don't. So anyways I let this girl come see it, she is like I like it ill come back with my BF to see it. Its not a car or an apartment. Jeez its a chair. Obv they come back BF finds something wrong and tries to lowball me for like 10$ instead of 15$. I told him to leave. I have never posted [censored] on that ghetto site again.

Re: my first craigslist experience
I think your girlfriend is off base here. CL Buyers tend to know the new-product price for the item they're seeking; they're only shopping on CL because they want to save off the new price. I think the key opportunity for CL arbitrage comes from uninformed sellers, not uninformed buyers; occasionally, all a seller knows is that they don't want the thing they have anymore.
I wanted to go see Lewis Black at the Borgata this August. The show was sold out and tickets were selling through agents at 2x face value or more. I picked up four on CL at face value, resold two over EBay at 1.9x face value, and kept two for personal use at almost no net cost. So, OP, clearly what you should be doing is buying this TV over CL, not selling it. |

Re: my first craigslist experience
Your way to high on the price but I would not sell it for $250 either. Alot of it depends on the brand though, as to what it would be worth.
To the guy who said you could buy a 1080p 42" for less than $900 at WalMart, no you can't. They have a Vizio 42" 720p for $900, which is the closest. |
