Stalking Chattanooga Craigslist IV

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!!

    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!

    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!

    Love the yellow chairs.

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

    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

    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?

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

    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!

    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!!
