I've tried selling on Craigslist with no luck...only scammers. When I did ebay years ago, if someone wanted to meet in person for pick up, I would meet them in a very public place like the Post Office or grocery store. I pay for a mail box at a local Mail Mart (shipping and gift store). There have been times I have left the item there, told them who was picking it up and time, told them to ask for ID and take the payment for me. I gave them a couple dollars to help me out. Of coarse, I trust them and have been doing business with them for years.

I would never have someone coming to my house (first reason I got a mailbox...so no one on ebay would see my home address when they made a purchase).

Good luck. I know people who do great on Craigslist but personally, it's been a bust for me
