Have to confess...I am a craigslist Junkie. I have scored so many cool things there for free or cheap. I've sold alot of things on it too. Just a great place for a diy-er to pick up project materials.

Any one else a regular on craigslist?
Whats your best score so far?

I have scored most of my tanks from craiglist including my 240. But my hubby has populated his barn workshop with mostly craiglist steals.

I have to watch how much time I spend there, er how much money.... LOL;)
I have picked up some great tools there including the lathe that I use for pens and a much larger lathe that I have yet to put to work (maybe to turn some bowls), plus other goodies.

Guilty as charged in the past, but I found that sellers seem to want to get top dollar for used items LOL. Now I just go to my local forum and check there.

Admitting that you have a problem is the first step. I am guilty. Jeff

Ive built my second chicken coop mostly from craiglist sourced freebies...recently picked up a treadmill which I stripped down for its motor,by far the best so far was a commercial grade coleman vertex 7500 watt vertical generator for $125 dollars! .. Ive scored others as well...but this is a gem.

Words cannot express my love of craigslist. I use it to rent out rooms, to sell things, and to buy things as well as to amuse myself when I am bored at work by reading the personals sections. :D
