mmegaeraIs anyone in the south Puget Sound area in the market for a used treadmill?
I have one. It's about eight years old, but it's in excellent condition and hasn't been used nearly as much as it should have been. The buyer (I really do need to get a little money out of this -- I'm thinking at least $100 since I paid over $800 for it originally) would have to provide the strong backs to move it out of my house and the vehicle to haul it away. I don't have either one myself or access to either one myself.
I am not comfortable with listing it on Craigslist, because I'm a woman living alone and I'd feel very unsafe having strangers who saw the ad in Craigslist come to my house (I've seen too many news stories about people who did this who ended up dead or raped), and I really don't have anyone I can impose on to be here with me the multiple times it will probably take to get it sold.
The nearest Play It Again Sports is about thirty miles away, and they don't come pick stuff up, anyway, even though they do sell treadmills.
Anyone have any ideas on how I could sell this thing? It seems to me that this time of year would be the best time to sell something like this.
