Craigslist has been the go-to site for secondhand furniture pieces and all sorts of steals. However, most people cannot deny that this classified website also has its own risks, such as unreliable and sketchy people that post items that are far from what they really are.
If you want to get affordable deals without having to consider Craigslist alone, here are a few of the best alternatives. These have, somehow, refined Craigslist's process, making it more convenient for people to sell and buy online.
Chairish
A national marketplace filled with vintage designs, it has a highly curated platform that will make everyone excited for each one of the featured pieces. Interior design and art lovers are delighted with the trustworthy process of finding affordable goods here that are more hard to find than those that are being sold in antique shops. On the other hand, sellers gain the benefit of sharing goods with buyers all over the United States.
Krrb
The site, which wants people to pronounce it as "curb," is just like the local classifieds; however, it connects sellers and buyers from all over the globe. Krrb's preloved items and vintage treasures are wonderful for refurbished pieces.
AptDeco
AptDeco is free from all the hassles and risks of using Craigslist. This platform, which primarily features used furniture pieces, handles purchase and selling processes from start to end. It will coordinate everything so both the buyer and the seller will have an optimized experience, including delivery and pick-up. Every service charges a fee of 14 to 19 percent, but everyone is most likely to agree that this is tiny when compared to the peace of mind and convenience it provides. The only thing is, AptDeco is available in the "Big Apple" only.
Furnishly
If the piece you are looking for is not on Craigslist, check out Furnishly. The website sets its focus on secondhand furniture pieces only within an area. The platform eliminates the hassle of sifting through rental listings and autosales just to have what you have wanted in the first place.
