Seeking Advice on This Craigslist Lot (Right Down The Street From Me)

I would like to swing by and take a look at the lot tomorrow morning but wanted to get some opinions first.

Garage Cleanup Computer LOT

A little high but you should do alright.......Contact him and tell him you buy it by the LB.......Take your scale and weigh it and you will know exactly what it's worth

Well since he stated a 100 id stick to that..decent amount of stuff there..who knows what may be hidden..on 80% of my free pickups you always get more when they know your a scrapper..dudes gota bunch of computer stuff so id say hes held onto other things that he considers to have no value as well..could be a big day..gl

looks like a few goodies in there. If it was my neighbor I would call him and offer him $50, and see where is goes from there.

I'd ofer $50 too and hopefully he'll take $75. I'd be willing to pay the $75 just for the opportunity. Like Scrappy said, you might get more than he has listed. Sometimes you have to take a gamble and I think this one would be a good one. Keep us posted.

Yuuup..i would also try n talk him down..shoulda stated that as well..ive made few small transactions n have always paid half the asking price...i say go for it

Go for it. I see at least one IBM keyboard which if its a model M can get you an easy $20 and there are a few other older looking ones. Plus I see alot of items that still have packaging. If they are ram,pci cards etc those would be an easy sell too.

Thanks everyone,

I decided to pass. Wasn't enough there to justify the cost. I told him to wait and see if he gets anymore offers, if he didn't, I would pay $55 for the lot.

The TV would be a NET -$35 for Me in Disposal cost right off the Bat.

Cash is KING!

Start low and work your way up. I got a guy once that wanted $110 for 2 large tubs of stuff. Ended up leaving his house with it for $35 and i got to keep the tubs. They were $15 each.

The reason i got it was, i was the 5th person to respond to the add, every other person was a no show or ****ed him around for a week + and i had a wad of cash.

there is a lot of junk there simular to what I have to get rid of, too expensive to ship to the buyer.

also I noticed the only tower you can see the back of appears to have the finger cards missing, courious to know if they are all missing finger cards.

remember its craigs list procede with caution.

Definitely not worth $100, there is a good chance that he will take your $55 offer after a few weeks.

I don't see junk, I see $$$$
