where do you usually post used items for sale?
 

Do you use Kijiji or Usedvan?

craigslist

CL & RS

In Vancouver not many people use kijiji.
CL is by far the best place to post.
But, if you want to cover all grounds just copy and paste the posting everywhere. Though, i've never been successful using usedvancouver. Usually just CL and RS

kijiji is whack lol

CL+RS all the way

and sometimes usedvancouver

ive found that kijiji is great for pets. asides from that, craigslist/rs is the way to go.

OP why are you asking this and why did you sign up to RS? I'm only asking since this is your first post.

^cause he's wondering where he could get the most exposure for his items, and because RS has a huge number of members most of which have likely sold used items before.

first post or not it's just a question, aren't forums for answering questions like these?!


edit... and to answer, rs/cl.

^ There has been so many :troll: posts lately by new members that's why I'm asking. You don't have to be part of RS to know CL is the best site around right now and he didn't even mention it.

i've sold my last 2 trucks offa kijiji. got no hits on CL. so i guess it depends what you are selling.

cl

CL for sure. everything i've posted on CL got sold within a week. if you post on RS, get ready for lowball offers. hahahahahha... :p

Well i have checked out the site and didnt really find what i was looking for, so i just want to know what alternatives that ppl us to post items.

Not too sure whats popular in BC.

But thanks for the posts

I actually dont have good experience with CL, as i always email the seller with no replies to anything.........whilst i get prompt replies from kijiji or usedvan.

It really is dependent on what you're selling. Some things do better on CL, some do better on RS. Others do better on kijiji. I've never had any luck with usedvancouver, personally. RS can have the typical lowballers, but you get those on CL and KJ too.

CL is better in Vancouver, KJ seems to be better in the Okanagan.

What you're trying to sell may have an impact on your luck, as well as where you're trying to sell it.

As with any sales involving people you probably don't know, try to meet up in populated, well lit areas at normal hours, during the day.

90% of the items that I post on CL, RS sell on CL first. It just has more traffic for buyers!

have you guys ever had luck on autotrader before? curious what the consensus is

I recommend craigslist since I sold many items on there

i always use cl..

CL and other car forums, depending on the itm.

Anyone else remember the days of picking up a Buy&Sell on Thursdays to find what you were looking for or to see if they printed your ad correctly?

I lol'd at the original post when he didn't even mention CL.

How do you know about Kijiji and usedvan (I never even heard of this one before)
and not know Craigslist??

Craigslist = Best

common sense... post on a site that gets the most traffic.

I've never even heard of Usedvan.

CL + RS as well. Never had a bad experience (yet).

d

off topic but some things are annoying about craigslist
today I was looking for some wheels and I entered
"4x100" worked perfect
but something like "15x7.5" will turn up no results cos it ends up searching for "15x7."
or "4/100", "15" wheels" etc. will also fail

I'm sure there are some wheels out there that I can't find because of the shitty search engine and the variations in how people make their ads
