Sometimes it really pays to check the sales listings on websites like craigslist.
If you’re looking for musical instruments and don’t mind buying used, Craigslist can be a pretty decent place to find them.
This is especially true in situations where you live in a wealthier area and the equipment isn’t worn by much. Personally speaking, I usually look for small appliances on craigslist. I once found an ad for a dishwasher that you could take and hook up to a kitchen sink. The dishwasher was on Wheels and you would basically store it along a wall and then push it in front of the kitchen sink to use it. Back then this appliance brand new would have cost at least $300 to $400. I managed to score that appliance for only $100. But that’s not even the best find I’ve ever secured on Craigslist for cheap appliances. I recently got a window air conditioner for only $20. I was looking at Craigslist yesterday for heating and cooling equipment because it’s spring and I know that people are trying to get rid of things in their attic and their storage units. Just like I thought, there were a lot of items for sale on Craigslist in the heating and cooling section. This preowned window air conditioner was in great condition and looked like it had only been lightly used a handful of times. I needed a window air conditioner for my tool shed so I can work in it in the middle of the summer when it’s hot outside. We need as much space in the garage as possible, so it made a lot of sense for me to get a tool shed and eventually an air conditioner to put inside of it.
