They offer a free tool called a booklet from their site, Craigseasy takes all the images from the listing and places them all in one page, so you able to see all the pictures upfront and then click on the listing your interested in purchases the item.
It was so easy to add to my computer, since its only a booklet { no need to download anything } for more information on getting a booklet for your pc click { here } I did a simple search using CE - aka Craigseasy, looking for a dresser for under $75.00 in less then a few minutes, I found two dresses. The first one is for $70 the second one is only $50!!
Isn't this an amazing dresser for only $50 bucks, look at the detail. This dresser would look amazing painted a pretty shade of blue or Kelly green.
Nest I did a search for mid century under $75 bucks. I found this cute mid century modern side table for $ 55 bucks, over priced yes. Next I came across the super cute mid century modern desk, for $60 a little steep for me for such a simple desk, that I often see at Thrift stores for h much less
My final search was for coffee tables under $50 bucks, I came across two the have promise. The first one is $35 dollars and would amazing spray painted - white or black. The other coffee table I like was only $30.00 and was practically screaming out to be painted a crisp clean glossy white.
For those of you out there that are new to shopping on CL - remember to look past the ugly and so the potentail your find has.
Do you use Craigseasy, to make your Craigslist searching easier? If not add the booklet and let me know what you think.




















I've never tried that, but I haven't had any luck finding good things on Craigslist either. Usually what I find in my area are really bad pieces from the '80's. We have a few consignment shops that will come to your home and pick up the pieces and send you a commission when you sell. I think that's where the really good things end up.
ReplyDeleteI haven't used this but it seems like a neat tool. I have my usual searches on craigslist that I do, but being able to see the photos up front seems useful.
