I know my ad one there would get pulled every time. They said because my ad was like a business not a individual person selling.
Sorry, they pulled your ad but glad you are doing well.

How much stuff did you sell and at what prices? You did great! I wish I could have seen the ad. Some mentioned that she copied you prices to save for future yard sale price. If that person happens to still have that list, I would love to see it! Did you sell the stuff at a yard sale, or did your ad in the paper mention what you were selling and have a phone # to contact you if someone wanted to buy?

TIA!

Sherry

Your total is amazing! That's awesome! I see that you did this in August, too and made almost $2000 in two days! WOW - thanks for sharing, this is definitely motivating. I may be planning trips to the city to get to CVS, Target, and the like! Anyone want to carpool?!

my price has posted more than 75 good deals!
If you go to Craig's list forums, they will tell you that anyone can pull the ad. We had our van listed on Craig's and it was flagged within 2 hours everytime we put it up. The local dealers were not happy we were trying to cut in on their profits! (our theory) Ironically, we sold it in 24 hours!

I too am having a garage/stockpile sale this weekend. I really appreciate your pricing list. I may do a lot more simple ($1, $2 or 3/$5...) just so DH can take $$ with me.

Great job on your sale though! Very impressive. It is also interesting what sells and what doesn't.

When I posted in the help forum on Craigslist, I was told that I had to post in Services!! Who looks in services for a stockpile sale? What a bummer! Apparently you can only post used items and usual garage sale items in the garage sales thread! I'm hoping to contact someone, and see what I can do about this!
Steph
P.S. I still did awesome though even w/o the ad on Craigslist.

People saw your ad for the amount of time that it was up there! I mean they can flag you all day long, but people still see it before that happens!

You did do very well though!
