I have sold 2 pairs of breeches (regret that one!) and I bought a purse a couple of years ago. I used to browse for horses all of the time but haven't recently, sometimes I get too depressed when I do that. <br />I love your new header picture! :)Pony Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02464088874054923635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-645869662457607658.post-28034592663227376012009-08-31T16:49:28.204-07:002009-08-31T16:49:28.204-07:00I haven't used CL but my kids who live in Denv...I haven't used CL but my kids who live in Denver swear by it.

I've sold 2 freezers and those were gone within a couple hours after the listing appeared. But I agree, you have to keep relisting because what you have must catch the eye of the right person. I recently listed some old telegraph keys (my dad & grandma worked for the railroad) that I'd had for years. I got a call the second day, a guy came and looked at them, bought them and told me about a project he's got going here in Tacoma. The restoration of an old Northern Pacific dining car and the creation of a Railroad Museum here in town. I bet we chatted for over an hour as he told me about his project and I told him about my railroad family history. Last week he showed up at my door again, with a 8 x 10 black & white photo of the last place my dad & grandmother worked with a Milwaukee train also in the picture. The building was torn down many years ago and the gift of this picture brought me to tears. My family will be donating other RR items to this man's efforts to preserve the history of the railroads to Tacoma and surrounding areas. A great Craig's List experience.Linda's Worldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05726098611180439141noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-645869662457607658.post-1538120985429353252009-08-31T10:54:32.792-07:002009-08-31T10:54:32.792-07:00We have actually started using it as a way to prom...We have actually started using it as a way to promote some of the real estate listings we have.

It is a very quick, easy way to sell stuff you no longer need!! I have only purchased hay from craigslist. But it is local, so you call them then go pick it up. Simple. <br />I like to look at horses on Craigslist from time to time, and I also look at jobs, since I am looking for one of those!Paint Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05095673661149903754noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-645869662457607658.post-60296146538375595142009-08-30T21:30:05.728-07:002009-08-30T21:30:05.728-07:00WAIT!

I have not used Craig's List but have used ebay and have not had great experiences. So the Thrift stores is where most of my stuff goes. But then I have a shed full of stuff that will go soon or after I die. I will probably let my kids deal with all the stuff I have aquired in my 64 years of living.Bill S.https://www.blogger.com/profile/17918013366385456020noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-645869662457607658.post-68008191256613296392009-08-30T19:57:08.261-07:002009-08-30T19:57:08.261-07:00I've been looking for houses for rent and truc...I've been looking for houses for rent and trucks to buy.

Have searched it here in Roanoke a couple of times for items I wanted but none were listed that suited my taste. Our computer sold in an hour and the exercise machine took a week. But then who wants to exercise anyway? Our kids have bought GREAT deals on Craigslist... the ones that live in Phoenix. The bigger the city the better the buys. <br /><br />Snappy DiAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
