I sold a lot of basketball tickets on there very fast.. one thing with smaller items is don't tell anyone it is sold until you have cash in hand.. Lots of no shows who "guaranteed" they would come by..

Only dealings I've had on Craigslist were for tickets to sporting events and never once had a problem...

Sold a bunch of stuff on Craigslist, never had a problem. the only issue I ever had was putting some lawn furniture on there for free. I must have gotten 50 responses for 2 shitty pieces of furniture, I will never post anything on there again where they have to come to your house to get it.

I used craig's list today to find free firewood. I've already taken home 3 pickup truck loads, *and* the guy who owns the property has
hired my 16 year old son for the day at $10/hr.

Use it often (more in the past than now).

Common sense prevails - Cash or bank wires (Bank checks or money orders if small amounts). Meet somewhere public like a starbucks or 7/11 or whatever. Unlikely someone is going to pull a gun on you in the local McDonalds.
