Woo! Got another e-mail from an interested party about the beer cans. I just replied to his message, we'll see if he's legit or just another B.S. artist....

Wow! This one actually called me on the phone to set up a time to come see the collection this weekend! Looks like it's for real!

**EDIT** It's a done deal. This guy is coming out to pick up the can collection on Sunday morning. Cool, this Craigslist thing actually works!

He didn't sound like a psycho over the phone, and he had no problem with meeting at a public place (McDonald's parking lot) to make the deal, so I guess he's not a serial killer.

Well, Craigslist really works... the beer can collection has a new owner and I'm $100 richer. Woot.

The guy who came to pick'em up explained that he works for a construction/design firm and right now they're working on a bar that wants old cans covering an entire wall, so he needs 3000 of'em. He sez he's been Craigslisting'em like crazy. So if you ever go to a bar in the NY area that has an entire wall covered in vintage beer cans, some of them will be my old collection. I'd say that's a fitting resting place for "my precious."

have a drink to that!!

I finally tried selling on Craigslist for the first time this weekend. I listed my fish pond with pump, filters, etc. on Sunday and Monday morning, *boom* got a hit. The guy is supposed to come Friday with cash-in-hand to pick it up.



So far, so good. Fingers crossed that everything goes smooth.

Craigslist has always been good to me, I found a 600 dollar bike on there for 70 bucks, I've also picked up CD's, vinyls, a couch, beer signs, a guitar... the list goes on. If you live around a college, the best time to go on is right around school gets out or right before it starts. Those times are usually when students are leaving their places and trying to get rid of all their crap.

I have had so so success. I get a lot of spam from idiots who use it to promote their sites Ill never go to.
