Make money by selling your items on Craigslist.com

Make money by selling your items on Craigslist.com
We all know about Ebay.  Ebay is one of the most successful online auction website today.  When we start our business and we use Ebay to sell our products, it can some time be challenging because of competition.  Due to Ebay popularity, almost everyone who wants to make a few extra dollars use Ebay to promote or sell their products.  Ebay can be a good start to sell your items whether it is used or new but there is also another website that is quite popular for online trading or selling. 
Craigslist.com is a website that we can use to sell our things without the hassle of shipping it out to our buyers.  The reason for this is because most people who buy things from Craigslist.com will pick up their item because the buyer usually looks for things that are within driving distance.  Here are a few good reasons why people use Craigslist.  Craigslist does not charge a fee for posting on their websites.  Craigslist only charges for job and real estate listings in certain cities.  You can see the item before you purchase them.  You can even negotiate with the seller once you meet face to face.  Craigslist tend to be cheaper than Ebay.  One of the things that I like most about Craigslist is that once you pay for your item you get it right away and Craigslist will not take a commission from you when your item is sold.  There is no waiting a few days to receive it in the mail.
