So since I have been looking around for a good deal on a car I have been looking at craigslist quite a bit.
Now craigslist is it's own little world when it comes to classifieds. These are nothing like what you would find in the paper or your local greensheet.
People for some reason seem to think that since they listed it on craigslist and gave you the benefit of posting pictures, their stuff should go for a much elevated price.
So let me get the word out.
Just because your couch from the 80's is from Ethan Allen, it is not "vintage", "shabby-chic", or even "modern."
And it is not worth the 100 - 300 bucks you're asking for.
Put the sucker on the corner and I am sure someone will be glad to take it off your hands.

Your ugly bedroom furniture is not worth money either.
Put it on the curb and it will disappear.
But no one in their right mind will pay $ for it.

That used mattress you are trying to sell is disgusting.
Put it on the curb next to your ugly couch & old bedroom furniture.

(this ad states *no stains* but I definitely see a few!)
No one is going to pay top dollar for your vehicle that *may* or *may not* run and has 200k miles on it. Donate it. Take it to a scrap yard. Sell it for parts.
But don't list it for $5000.

Ok off my soapbox now.
Enjoy some laughs, feel free to share any good postings I missed.
