Make Money Selling Free Craigslist Items on eBay

Here is a great idea on how you can make money starting today from Craigslist. Craigslist.org has a large, free section for every state. In the free section, I have even seen mobile homes being given away. On a regular basis, you will see household appliances, furniture, TV's and more! All you need to do is pick up the free items and then resell them on eBay. This work at home business will require a truck, muscles and a personal computer.

Go to Craigslist.org and click on city you are closest to. Then click on free in the for sale section. This will show you all the items Craigslist has for free in your area. It is updated daily. Use the Craiglist system to email the poster. Tell them you want the item and arrange to pick it up. This can be a never-ending supply of items to sell on Ebay. You probably shouldn't tell them you are planning on selling their item on eBay. They may decide to sell it on eBay themselves. You can clean up the item, take pictures and list on Ebay the same day. If item is to large to ship, you can list it as pick up only.

Selling the items on eBay is my personal first choice. There are other ways of making a profit of the free items on Craigslist. You could start having a huge garage sale every Saturday. Advertise your garage sale in the classifieds and post signs everywhere. If you picked up items almost each day, checked the Craigslist classifieds and had a garage sale you would be putting in a good 20 hours a week. You should be able to make a few hundred extra each week. No doubt, this is hard work. If you need the extra money though, this would be a great work at home business.

By the way, Craigslist is not the only source of free merchandise. Try Googling "free stuff, your state" to find other sources of free items. I found that my local newspaper has a free stuff section in their classifieds. You can even place a free ad offering to pick up old appliances in working condition. You can either fix them up cosmetically or disassemble them for parts. You can find much more than appliances on Craigslist. Just the last few days I have seen palm trees, house plants, TV's, beds, clothes, toys, desks, entertainment centers, dirt bikes, hot tubs, books, sofas and much more. With a little work you could be making money from the free section on Craigslist!
