Alt-Craigslist - kap - 08-24-2017

What other websites I can subscribe to sell used electronics?


Re: Alt-Craigslist - cbelt3 - 08-24-2017

There are often specialty sites for things like audiophile equipment, HAM radio equipment, old Mac stuff, etc.... Or the MRF.... what are you selling ?

One of the best Google searches for answers like this includes vs, as in "craigslist vs" (or "craigslist alternative"). Mashable or some such will have a list.

I've used LetGo and there are some others.

If you're on FB, there's already a Marketplace link down in the lefthand side rail of the screen (browser, not phone).

The only other one I've heard of (actually seen commercials for) is Let Go. There used to be a website called backpage, but I think they got shut down because most of the users were prostitutes advertising their services.

:agree:
This is the best means to maximize your dollars if you have stuff of interest to a particular group. I was going to make some crack about how there's a marketplace for everything but used bedroom toys, but I quickly realized there's likely more market there than I want to consider.

These are items I have to sell: Nikon camera, label maker, sewing machine, working Windows laptops with cracked screens, windows desktops of P3 and duel core generations and a myriad of Mac laptops' hardware. These are all gently used.

I'd put the Mac hardware here and see what goes.

I have had good luck with facebook Marketplace.

It is not as anonymous as craigslist. It is also not as popular as facebook, but I like that it seems to be more of a gatekeeper against the riff-raff of craigslist.
