I Heart Craigslist.org
I check Craigslist's listings for furniture classifieds in Orlando periodically. Since my husband and I are moving into our first house in a month, I've been looking for used furniture. This week I found a listing for 2-year-old black leather sofa and loveseat and dining room set from American Signature listed for $875 and $250, respectively. We negotiated and ended up at $950 for all the items. The pieces retail for $2,700. The seller was moving this week to San Francisco and found it easier to sell it than transport it. My husband and his brother brought a couple of trucks to his apartment and loaded it up last night. The furniture is beautiful. Mint condition. The seller was super nice. It was a great transaction. You better bet I'll be scouring Craigslist for other good deals in the future.
Some have requested a direct link to Craig's List. Here is the page I have bookmarked: Orlando Furniture.

Cara,
I love your site. I found it while cruising through relevantmagazine.com.
As I recently moved out on my own, and being a bargain hunter myself, I eagerly followed the links you provided for discount furniture. However, craiglist.org would not open, so I thought that maybe there was a possibility of it being craiglist.com instead, but to my horror, it opened a site of a definite unsavory nature (the kind that makes you want to puke).
I'd appreciate it if you could provide a direct link to the site, as my typing it in didn't seem to get me where I wanted to go.
Thanks for your time!
Sarah

Eeek. Or maybe I just left out the "s" in craigSlist.org.
Sorry to bother!
