Kijiji

I love kijiji.  I have been able to find some great things on there such 2 baskets of baby toys for $20 which were full of lamaze and manhatten toys - total steal.  Some of the toys in there sold for $20 each.  I was very excited.  We found 3 leather back chairs for our kitchen to go with our table and bench.  They were $150 for all 3 - perfect condition, only used for staging.  Very happy.

We've managed to sell some crap around the house, hockey tickets, dog pen, futon frame, water cooler, washer + dryer, dishwasher - we've been very lucky.

Now, I am getting ready to sell off our baby things since we don't plan on having anymore kids.  Sorry to disappoint you Grandma's.  So this morning I was perusing Kijiji to see how much we should sell our Fisher Price Ocean Wonders Swing for.  I was planning on listing around $80 and negotiating down to around $60 or so.  Maybe lower if I liked the person.  I found a couple just like ours - one was $40, one was on hold for $55 and one was selling for $100.  Most swings were listed between $70 + $85 I noticed regardless of brand or model.  The one that caught my eye was $100 because it was identical to mine but she was claiming she bought it for $250.  Where on earth do you find a fisher price swing for that price and why would you pay it?

People amaze me on there sometimes.

Regardless, I love kijiji for all the things it does for me but especially the comic relief that it provides to me on a daily basis.
