What are some tips for selling things on Craigslist?

Some tips for selling things on Craigslist include creating a Craigslist account, refreshing the posts, selling to nearby Craigslist communities and taking attractive pictures of the items on sale. Price the item slightly higher than the expected amount to provide room for negotiations with the potential buyer.

By creating a Craigslist account, the seller edits or refreshes the advertisement when it expires. The seller needs to check the status of the advertisement at least once a week, especially when posting in large communities that receive numerous listings in a day. The seller must also provide a detailed description of the item on sale such as its current condition, brand and features.
