Stalking Chattanooga Craigslist IV

Sunday, March 6, 2011

I check with Craig here in Chattanooga at least 3 times each week and lately I've just been coming up with things like this


Chattavegas?

Thankfully, Craig has stepped it up lately.  Here are my favorite finds - all at bargain prices!

$20

$200


$80


$35


$400 - pricey but its mahogany by Hekmann


$80 for all 3 pieces!
So clever how this fits together!


$300, but seller will negotiate.

All for $299

Whaaat?  The heading for this listing was "Chairs Chairs Chairs" . Do you think this is for real or is it a bait & switch?
Yeah, I do have a call into this guy.  


Oh, and the strangest listing..
is this dinette set.  Don't you think we might want to see the table and chairs?

It's a brand new week - make it a good one!!

Some really great buys here, Kim.
Thank you for sharing.

Too funny! And yes, that first barrel set you showed is very reminiscent of my current post. Amazing the stuff you can find on CL!

Danielle Sigwalt Interiors said...

I know it never ceases to amaze me what pops up on CL. The other day I spotted a porcelain baby head atop a lucite pillar with a shade on top...it was a floor lamp! Absolutely odd, hideous and yet I found myself drawn to it. Love those yellow queen anne chairs and that campaign dresser...great finds! Hope you had a wonderful weekend!!!

Craigslist is always good for a laugh when it comes to furniture. I loved the settees you found!

My mom has that white wicker set but we sprayed it black and recovered the seats. It sits on her patio in a condo they keep here in the city, perfect size - how fun!

Kristen | Cottage Modern said...

Those first finds were hilarious, but you managed to find some real gems! I can't wait to see what you do with these pieces....

Lynda @ Happenstance Home said...

That dinette set ad is too funny! Love that first sofa - so much potential! Fun post!

Noelle at Gray Paint Decor said...

LOVE the pink sofa! Just realized I'm not following; I'm fixing that now!!

Karen said...

Love the yellow chairs.

Kind of wondering what's hiding under the fabric on that dinette!

Kendall said...

Someone must buy that $400 campaign chest. It is a steal!!!!

Kelly Frances Dunn said...

Oh my heavens, you just totally made me spit out my drink I cracked up so hard at that last line! I was looking at the picture thinking what in the world and then your caption :D That is too funny. I love your stalker series, I too have to step away from that crime of passion. It hurts my wallet too much ;) XO

Carol@TheDesignPages said...

Those are some of the best and worst furniture pieces I've seen. That last one is just downright hilarious. Guess they're not in a hurry to sell that, huh?

Ashley said...

Seems like you worked through a lot of crap to find some awesome listings...aside from the mystery dining set!

Evie said...

That last one is too funny! I am so afraid of Craigslist being a scam, but I (and my boyfriend who I made go with me) picked up a coffee table this weekend from a Craigslist seller, and I couldn't be more in love with it!

Hyphen Interiors said...

Thanks for the comment! Great post! I love the last pic of the table!! Isn't that hilarious!

birdsofafeatherdesign.com said...

for $20 that glass table would be all mine! I can only assume what is uner all those coats is not worth seeing! Great finds...-Ann

SHERRY HART said...

Ha Ha...I'll take that last one! But on a serious note that beautiful sofa...with the wood trim. Yum

nancy @ {COZAMIA} said...

Haha! This is funny...but OMG that pink sofa! that pink sofa! THAT PINK SOFA!! why I can't I ever find stuff like that?!?

InteriorGroupie said...

LOVEEEEE that yellow and white desk!! How much to ship to Toronto? ;)

Sharon @ Decorating is Bliss said...

I too live in Tennessee....oh the hideous orange....if it's orange with a "T" on it, it's only decor for a sports bar. Ugh! Love your blog and I'm so glad I found a fellow Tennesseean blogger! Nice to "meet" you!!
