I sold my first item on Craigslist!

I know it seems sort of silly, but I am very excited I was able to successfully sell an item on Craigslist.

I posted two sale ads in the furniture section. I took pictures of the items and included them with the cost, description, and my general location. The first posting was for a metal desk and office chair. I received three emails of people wanting to send me a Cashier's Check and have thier mover come get the items. I don't think so!! You can take $100 out at any ATM machine, and that's what you'll have to do. So that, at least for now hasn't sold.

The other item was a VHS movie cabinet, great people called, made an appointment to stop by. Showed up on time, and purchased the item. What a simple concept, but I was beginning to wonder if that wasn't the case anymore.

Not too bad for my first time, now I just need to find a way to make this desk and chair more interesting...
