I'm preparing to downsize homes and had a lot things I wanted to get rid of. My daughter took photos of all of it and posted it on Face Book. within a week I sold:

  1. Broyhill 9 piece dinning room set
  2. 2 double beds
  3. 1 twin bed
  4. 3 dressers with mirrors
  5. 2 chest of drawers
  6. 3 night tables with lamps
  7. small desk with chair
  8. papason chair & end table
  9. 2 sets of window curtains
  10. 18 wall pictures

Just 4 customers and I collected $1200 all in cash. The strippers were happy this week.

How does one sell household items on Facebook?

My kid used Facebook to sell some furniture when he finished school, sold everything in 24 hours - but I don't know the detailed how

I had suggested Craigslist (just glad I didn't slip up & suggest Backpage, lol)

@shadow - eBay? Facebook? You realize your post is just going to confuse farmerart more than ever, right?

I always thought that an Asian pimp would sit in a papason chair.

I threw out my papasan chair with my lava lamp, my hackysack, my Oregon Trail floppy disk, and my lime green polyester leisure suit.

Club_goer - There are specific groups you can join. This was a Fayette county: buy, sell, trade group.

@Moto-Oregon Trail! I hated that game. Probably why I was late on the computer/Internet revolution.

@slick did you hate because you always died of Typhoid or Cholera, after getting dysentery about three times.

That is all I remember of that game and playing it on stone age computers in middle school, getting sick and dying.

Really? We always fought over Oregon Trail in school. It was more fun than the Math game they made us play.
