If you haven’t checked out Craigslist (many regional sites, including one for Austin<\/a>), you should. It’s a phenomenal marketplace.<\/p>\n

A lot of people use it for casual sex hookups, and hey, if I knew about that aspect of it back when I was single, who knows? But it’s also great for getting rid of stuff that has a little too much value to donate or throw out. I’ve posted several items for prices that are probably about 1\/3rd to 1\/5th what the item would cost new and gotten nibbles within a few hours, and sold the item within about a day. No fuss, no muss, and a lot easier than ebay. The posting process is dead-simple.<\/p>\n
