Best classified advertisement website?
«
on:
October 26, 2024, 09:28:52 AM »
I’m wondering what is the best site for selling general items. I’d like to clear out some items. Craigslist? Kijiji? Facebook marketplace?
At the moment I have some early 1900s and mid century surveying stuff I’d like to move on. There will be other stuff as well. I’ve only used Craigslist in the past, and that was to sell motorcycles.

I have sold stuff on all the sites. I find Facebook should be called "flakebook" at times.

I've used Marketplace. You might consider professional sites for those theodolites.

The Wild T16 is sold. The antique Bostrom level is really only of interest to a collector or for a display piece.

I’m curious to comments on what type of selling product might be better for different things. For example, I’m going to be selling original paint 60 yr old Raleigh bicycle. Craigslist, or Facebook marketplace???

I haven’t enough experience in any of these really to comment.
Facebook:
I bought a Dyna ignition plate. The sale etc went well. Unfortunately, five months later I discovered it was faulty. Could happen regardless of the platform.
I tried to buy a CB750. The seller was flaky and it didn’t work. Could happen regardless of platform
Sold my Wild T16 theodolite on Facebook yesterday with no issues.
Craigslist:
Sold all of my motorcycles on Craigslist. Only a couple of flaky buyers, but the sales all went well with no issues.
