How can you buy a used sofa?

Purchase a used sofa from the owner through a classifieds website such as Craigslist.com or Kijiji.com. These websites offer local postings by people selling their own used items.

To search for used sofas on Kijiji, enter your city, state or ZIP code in the search bar to begin. Once you reach the Kijiji home page for your region, click the Furniture link, and then select Couches. The website displays sofas for sale by owner in the area.

To find used couches on Craigslist, select your state and city, and then click on the Furniture link under the For Sale heading. Narrow your search by typing "couch" or "sofa" into the search bar at the top of the page. An ad for a sofa on either website should include contact information for the seller.
