Craigslist is great, but be careful of scammers. Craigslist is items for sale, a classified ad site. It's truly a great place, but it you are selling a higher priced item (furniture, vehicles, etc) you may get contacted by someone asking to pay via western union or cashier's check and have a delivery company pick it up. Don't do it! I only accept CASH and people MUST come pick up the item. That's the best policy with craigslist. They even have it posted on their site.
I am on "no mail" with freecycle right now, but will be going back on shortly as I do have some stuff to get rid of.
I use craigslist here, but it's not that great. No one puts their phone # in the ad and they never respond to the emails. No one takes their ads down when they get rid of their items either, they just let them expire. In Vegas it was awesome, because people move in and out of there so much you can ALWAYS find cool stuff for sale at very reasonable prices. Like a virtual garage sale, I loved it. I wish it were like that here!
I used to list things on craigslist in Vegas and have it sold within a couple of days. I have things on craigslist here that stay on the entire 45 days and I never get an inquiry. :-P
