I have bought some items off Craigslist and gone to peoples houses by myself to pick them up. Depends on who I am dealing with whether I feel the need to take someone with me or not. I purchased a tv and went by myself and met the woman on her lunch hour at her house, no one was there and I did call my husband and tell him I was going in, the address where I was and if I didn't call him back in 10 minutes, he better call the police, LOL. I have purchased a clothes dryer off Craigslist and of course took hubby because he needed to help load it. Also, purchased a cell phone and DD went with me to look at it because it was for her, but DH waited in the car outside it was night time and I didn't feel comfortable going at night. The lady we bought the phone from though, brought us all the way through her house into the kitchen so we could test out the phone, no one was home with her, we could have been nutjobs or murderers or something, I don't think I would have invited a stranger into my house. I have sold a couple of bags of teenager clothing on Craigslist and I have met the person in a public place in the parking lot, other than this I haven't had much luck selling, but I have had good luck buying.
