I have sold many things there and actually earned some. It all started from a mistake. I was looking for a laptop and someone is selling one for $50 on craigslist but it is missing the charger. Then When I got it I charged it with my dad's laptop charger and it turned up but the BIOS password problem came up, and I can't fix it. I decided to sell it on craigslist. I have it priced for $100 then someone took my bait and bought it from me then I realized I could get money this way(buy and sell). So I started buying stuff like computer rams, Video cards, sound cards,computer stuff etc, etc that people would buy and resell it for profit. Then I saved enough to buy a desktop PC, vga monitor, wireless N USB Network adapter, speakers, mouse, keyboard, and more. But then I got to school and I got busy with studies and stopped for a while. You guys can probably do that too.

Isn't that kind of a fraud because the laptop doesn't boot up?

It was, but what you buy in craigslist cannot be returned unless you got an agreement, and I did not. I bought it from a high school kid.

I was just thinking of selling one of my 35mm cameras on craigslist. Seems kind of easy just have to deliver product in person, that's OK if you live in the city. If it works out I'll sell some other thing ling around.

Yep, you can sell almost anything. I even tried to sell a spider I caught just for fun. But theres a lot of scammers too. i live in the city so it's easy to meet up with buyers.
