I've had good luck selling on Craigslist. I had a set of 4 Corvette rims from my 96, and a guy drove 100 miles to buy them. Never complained about the price and gave me cash. I recently sold 3 desktop PC's that I've had sitting in my garage. I was asking $100 for all 3. A gal emailed me saying she was interested, but I was out of town on business. She kept in contact and we finally arranged a time and date. She was very prompt and handed me the $100 cash. She did not even wanted to see if they worked, even though all 3 were fresh installs with the latest updates.

the other part of this sale -from what you said Executioner is. this Tent sells for new for $300.00 new online . the guy will to pay me a extra $50 on top of my list price of $150 firm . but he spend i figure at min. $100 in gas or more driving from his home state to michigan . the whole story he said in the message didn't seen Right at all.plus his time in travel . for $50 or less would you buy a used item ? for all the bs and time it take .when you could get a brand new one delivered to your door step . :)

Just picked up 7 Martin Roboscan 812 for $650. All work fine and one had a broken mirror but it came with a replacement. Super happy about that deal.
