Craigslist is the only one place to sell and buy anything and everything used or new all around the globe for free of charge. Its a non-profit classified listing service offered to people all over the world now. Its totally FREE and no cost associated to list anytime compared to Sulekha or any other listings. Thats what makes this listing shows apart from the other fee paid listings. Its been there long before Sulekha classifed came in to place.
From the day I got to know about this listing like 5-6 years, it has come a long way. It has now listing for most of countries in the globe and its important cities. It has all different types of categories which you can imagine to sell or buy items.
Using Used Items
In America, any used items can be sold except sanitary stuff. You can see Garage sales in neighborhood selling used shoes, shirts, pants, books, cd etc., Thats how ebay came into market. Ebay serves has just another hub to get rid of old items other than garage sales. You can see all type of old and used items sold in it including the Chewing gum chewed by actors.
But buying or selling used items might not be a trend in India but its slowly peeping his head in different ways. Now you can see dealers and finance companies setting up shop to sell used cars and motorcycles. You can also see small computer dealers selling old and used refurbished computers. Traditionaly, we are used to buying new items whether its our clothes or items we used every day.
Its changing slowly and I don't think there is any wrong with it. Instead of throwing things away which are needed for you, it can be sold to be people who like to have it. Ebay charges hell lot of fees to list and service each listing. CRAIGSLIST.ORG is one of the best places to do it without any cost.
BUY and SELL ANYTHING
You can buy or sell anything you like to get rid off. Whether its your kids toys or you once expensive electronic item which you don't need or your wife's expensive outfit which she don't like it anymore. CRAIGSLIST.ORG has every category in the world like for sale, housing, services, jobs and so forth search to sell or buy things and services easier. It might not have the very attractive and friendly interface but it has the simpler method to add any type of listing with pics with out any charge for it.
Good thing about it is, you are not dealing with any company. You are directly dealing with the buyer or the seller. I have bought many items for my home. I have bought the spare bed for my guest room for just $100 which might cost $300. I had purchased metal cabinets for my office just $20 which is worth $100 bucks new. I can keep adding the list on and on. Its totally worth the time and money to shop in CRAIGSLIST.ORG
SELL AND DONATE
There is no harm in selling old items. Its the best of getting rid of things which you don't need or like it anymore. Instead of throwing things away and making a mess of your neighborhood. You can put it on the sale. If you find a good buyer, you can sell it and make a fortune. You know I am kidding. Just Sell it for whatever its worth and if you like donate it to any non-profit organization you wish.
It also offers discussion forms and listing for services for local business which can be used for marketing purpose. I just thought of spreading the word around about this easy listing service which would really help anybody..
