Craigslist Tip #2- Don't Rush to Purchase

It only stands to reason that if you aren't taking the time to consider your purchase, you increase your chances of making a mistake. Craigslist is a great place to go searching if you know what you want (and if you really know, then post a "wanted" ad to target other like-minded people), but if you're not sure, then you will get frustrated. At the bottom of the market, deals get snapped up quickly, and if you can't move fast you won't get them. You will end up gravitating toward something that isn't a deal- and that nobody else will be willing to touch.
