People appreciate me being prepared to remove their appliances without damaging their house, showing up on time, paying cash, and often times I will buy all their appliances (and other items they might be selling). Sellers appreciate me cleaning out the appliance, changing out 220v power cords for them, delivery and setup of the appliance as well as the price, which I usually set at just under the going rate. Many times people will come to me asking for me to find a used appliance for them and want me to deliver it. Buying on craigslist can often times be like buying a used car. You never know who your dealing with. One of the skills I've picked up is how to read between the lines on craigslist ads. If you don't know what your doing, it can be quite a frustrating experience.
