😂 “How I Escaped the Craigslist Circus and Found Sanity at UsabilityClassifieds.com” Mike’s Story
So there I was, standing in my garage, surrounded by disability gear that my mom no longer needed, a scooter, a transfer bench, some adaptive utensils, and a mysterious cushion that looked like it belonged in a spaceship.
Naturally, I did what any desperate American would do:
I posted it all on the usual suspects Craigslist, Facebook Marketplace, and that one app that’s basically Tinder for junk.
Big mistake.
I got offers like:
I spent hours crafting listings, dodging scammers, and explaining to strangers that no, the transfer bench is not a medieval torture device.
Then, like a beacon of hope in a sea of nonsense, I found UsabilityClassifieds.com.
A site that actually specializes in daily living items. You know, the stuff people with disabilities actually need.
Not vintage lava lamps or haunted dolls. Hang on I do have a haunted doll for sale.
I listed my scooter, and the cost was only $19.99 and get this, a real human called me. Not a bot. Not a ghost. A person.
They said, “Hey Mike, bundle your items into fewer ads and save some cash.” I almost cried.
Even better? The stuff I wanted to give away, like the adaptive utensils and spaceship cushion, got listed for free. No hoops. No drama.
Within days, the scooter was picked up by a veteran who couldn’t afford a new one. The transfer bench went to a rehab center.
And I got my garage back, plus a warm fuzzy feeling that I wasn’t just decluttering, I was helping.
So yeah, if you’re tired of the online marketplace jungle, where every message feels like a prank, do yourself a favor and check out UsabilityClassifieds.com.
It’s not just a website. It’s therapy. For your stuff. And your sanity.
