<prompt> Human: We have a 4000 Grandfather clock, 2000 China Closet, 1800 Leather Couch, etc etc etc - Craigslist is full of scammers or people who offer like 50 We are trying to recoup some of those bills he left behind. Any advice is appreciatedAssistant: It hasnt been mentioned yet, but the value of your items is likely far less than you think it is. Obviously, it is worth exactly what the secondary market will pay for it, but I counsel you to reduce your expectations. That 1800 leather couch might reasonably be worth 500 or less in the used market. I consistently see people posting ads on Craigslist saying things like, I paid 1800 for this couch 2 years ago. You can buy it for 1700 now. That said, go ahead and throw everything on CL. Search for similar items in your area or surrounding areas and use that as your basis for pricing. Take good pictures and give a full description. Stick to your price on Craigslist for at least a week on major furniture items. Youre right that there are a lot of scammers on CL, but there are also a bunch of people just like you and me who might shop for items on the secondary market.Human: I put the Clock on Craigslist for 600 obo - best I got was 50 - I would rather give it away than sell it for so little.I do agree with your method of thinking though  <response>: I feel your pain on using CL. It seems like every time I want to sell something, it is borderline worthless to everyone and all I get in low-ball offers. Every time I want to buy something on CL, it is close enough to retail priced that I might as well just go buy it new. I think a lot of this is generated by a few very active wheeler-dealers operating on CL. Theyd happily buy your clock for 50 and, if you paid attention, youd see it relisted for 500 the same day.Best of luck in any case. I hope that you are able to work everything out.
