I put my old TV (Sony WEGA HDTV from '02) on sale on my local Craig's List -- my first time ever using Craig's List or selling anything online. I've got a good ad and an attractive price, and I've gotten multiple emails already.
But now I realize I have no idea what I'm doing next
I've got to schedule visits of strangers at my house to see the TV. Any common sense tips?
* Is it bad form or a bad idea to have multiple prospective buyers visit at once?
* Cash only generally expected for Craig's Listers?
* I've got a coworker interested and visiting this afternoon; should I schedule Craig's Listers to visit this evening too, or hold off on responding until my buddy has decided yes or no?
* Some, but not all, emails from CraigsList buyers have a "CRAIGSLIST ADVISORY --- AVOID SCAMS BY DEALING LOCALLY" tag in the subject. Are these particularly suspect emails? CL help says nothing about it.
I remember now why I'm an engineer and not a salesman
