Craigslist saves you from having to pack and ship - BUT - do not let them into your house. I have sold many larger items on it. In fact, I currently have a chest freezer and 2 dressers I'm selling. Meet them on the porch or in your garage. While most of the people buying on craigslist are good people, the bad ones use it to check out your house. If you feel at all uneasy, politely ask them what area they are coming from and offer to meet them at a Starbucks or donut shop on the route. An honest person has no objection to meeting you in a open, busy location.
