Hi Ladies!
I have advertised my queen bedroom set in the Star Telegram with no luck. It is a beautiful sleigh bed complete bedroom set including the TV… Help, I need to sell! Does anyone have good experiences with Craig’s list or any other avenues?
Thanks!

I have had lots of luck selling things on craigslist! After advertising a Mustang convertible with autotrader for over six months (and only getting one person to look at the car), I tried craigslist. Sold it, for asking price, within a week. Craigslist is really easy to use. Make sure to only accept cash and I only set up meeting times with people when my husband is home for safety's sake. I usually mention, especially on larger items, that they need to be picked up, otherwise I get bombarded with emails asking if I will deliver the item. Be patient, craigslist shoppers can sometimes be unreliable and not show for appointments. We usually ask a little more than what we actually want for what we are selling, so there is a little negotiation room. And list things in all possible categories - for instance if selling a child's bed, I would list it under furniture and baby/child. Be honest, we always mention if something has a scratch or something - it has never kept us from selling it. Post pictures, I usually don't even look at ads that don't include a picture. I don't think it has ever taken us longer than a week in a half to sell our stuff - everything from a car to an area rug to a broken washing machine.
Good luck!
We have had very good experiences selling furniture (and cars) on craigslist at good prices.
