Do you have access to a garage where you can set it up? And maybe have your "mechanic" working on his car while they look? With a big wrench in his hand? Whatever you do. don't be alone or let them in your house. Sorry, it's a sign of the times nowadays. :roll:

I totally agree with mommaB, I have sold a lot on CL and will not let them come to my house. Good luck to you!

May I ask why you are selling your machine?

Have you tried to sell it here? I would imagine there'd be a bit of interest in it.

Most of the time there is no problem, but, it only takes one time to get hurt, or worse. Be very cautious

i sold my first quilting machine (too small) and a hi-riser sofa on craigslist. my husband was home both times and he's B-I-G. but if you're nervous, have someone over who has a large, barking dog and say it's yours.

My husband always comes with me when I buy stuff. When we sell stuff he deals with it but I am surprised by the ladies that come on their own. Also many people will meet us on parking lots etc. and my husband also sells stuff from work.

Always get cash. Having someone else there is a good plan.

I sold my quilting machine on Craigslist. My husband was home with me when they came, and they were very nice people. They had a lot of quilts tops already made and were just looking for the right machine to quilt them.
We also sold a wood splitter on Craigslist, and the men who bougt it were very nice too.
