On Apartment Therapy
We love Craigslist, but sometimes it feels like a badly behaved lover. Craigslist requires constant maintenance and you never know if you're going to get a call back. But, just often enough, you end up with a real peach.

Wow, it's interesting how everyone has a different Craigslist experience - I've been using CL (both buying and selling) for over 5 years (in L.A., Miami and D.C.) & have almost always put my phone # but have never received any weird calls.
I've been stood up a couple of times by people who said they were going to come and see something, but compared to how many have followed through, it has not been a big deal. BTW, my husband has always been home with me when someone has come over or we've gone together to look at or buy something.
Things we've bought: my husband's last car, pair of mid-century sofas, two dog crates, bicycle, we found a great apartment in DC which we we were able to sublet for a week from the owner, found a great & affordable furniture upholsterer and we've even found 2 great tenants for our house.. we've sold a Bose stereo system, my old car, etc.
Yet I know someone who was bombarded with spam the very first time he listed on CL.
Must be the luck of the draw?? I am a HUGE fan of Craiglist! curlscj on Dec 11, 2009
