Yes I have. I have bought a wheelchair van, and a large air compressor. I have sold some handicap equipment and a wheelchair van. It is easy to navigate, although sometimes you have quite a ways to travel. When we sold the van, we had some guy call about the van about 4 in the morning, being stupid, he wanted to pay us more money than we were asking for the van, we keep it in our name, and he would drive it to Mexico to get illegals. My husband gets up at 4:30, so he played right along with them. He kept them on the phone for over 30 minutes.

Why did he want to pay you more money for your van than you asked for. .and why do you say it's being stupid? Maybe he had someone who would pay him more money than you were asking for and was trying to be fair? Just kinda curiuos... I haven't sold anything on Craig'slist but.. i have gotten several things from it.. I never send money to anyone from Craiglist . I rather meet people face to face if there's going to be a transaction that requires something other than cash ..

He really did not want the van. Made a prank to us. We figured that out when he told us what he wanted it for.

So glad you find it to be helpful. It seems to be something that is available world wide... Where in the world are you ? I am in the USA.

I've always had good luck with cl. I've sold a lot of things and also bought a couple of things. The good thing is that you can get the cash for the item when they pick it up and there's no dealing with the post office and mailing things. I've also met a few guys who although there was no romantic involvement we became good friends. My d/i/l has found apartments on cl and sold things to.
