Craigslist, anyone?

I love craigslist and have used it in the past for a variety of transactions. I sold my 92 Mazda Protege along with its 4 studded snow tires for $750 (which was $750 more than the Toyota dealer was going to give me in trade), among other things. I've bought furniture, most notably dressers for the boys' rooms, and other things. The last thing we tried to sell, a very LARGE rear projection TV, did not sell, despite being listed for 2 weeks (not that I am surprised by that).

Anyone got any good craigslist success stories to tell--either of buying or selling? I'm really in need of some interesting things to post. Ironic, as in this economic climate, we all could use to be more frugal. I'll try to do better--just that things are really busy right now, keeping up with all the kids' activities.
