If you are tired of getting burned by Craigs List sellers, there are some interesting alternatives that you may want to consider.  According to Komando.com, there are 3 sites out there better than Craigslist:

OfferUp.com - uses Tru You technology that actually verifies the identity of the buyers and sellers.  The app is available to Apple and Android users and like ebay, you can rate the seller and buyer.  This is just what I need.

ThredUp.com - buying used clothes on Craigs List can be a nightmare.  Not so with Thred Up.  The site utilizes fashion experts to first approve all the clothes for sale.  They also offer up shoes, purses and hand bags.

gsalr.com - is a garage sale lovers dream!  This site will create a map so you can find the biggest garage sale near you.  Pretty cool!
