Attempting to sell my Cowboys tickets on Craiglist.
I posted them around 3pm this afternoon and had a response in an hour from a woman named, what else, Tracy. I am supposed to meet her and her family this evening somewhere off 30. I found a Starbucks or a Whataburger that might work…both public and usually busy.
I am waiting for a call back to confirm our meeting location and time. I hope this lady pulls through. The only other time I sold something on Craigslist, the person never showed up and I put my washing machine by the dumpster of my old apartment I also hope she isn’t a crazy person because I have to meet her alone.
I will update this post later so you all know that I dropped of the tickets and made it back alive.
*Update - I am alive and home. The people who bought the tickets were a bunch of kids, and by kids I mean younger than me. We met at a Starbucks in Grand Prairie, a little farther than I would have liked to drive, but it was busy and well lit. I’m just glad I didn’t lose all my money.
Craigslist virgin.
So I admit, before today, I was a Craigslist virgin.
I posted my washer and dryer for sale about 6 hours ago and have five offers. I accepted the first one. I have no idea what the person’s name is and where they are from, but they offered to come pick it up next Saturday and pay me the $150 I asked for.
But honestly, I think I may have done everything wrong with this first Craigslist experience. Someone told me I should accept the first offer and have the person come pick it up ASAP. I need my washer and dryer this week, so I said next weekend as the pick up. Someone else said only take cash. I asked for cash first and check second. Oops. I haven’t given out my address yet, so I think I did at least one thing right.
Let’s hope this person comes with cash in hand and picks them up next weekend.
