How to use Craigslist to buy scrap gold.
Craigslist.org is a great, free method to reach out to scrap gold sellers. The keys to success with Craigslist are consistency and a well written advertisement. You must re-post your ads often; at least every 30 days. Security is another issue. You want to meet a potential scrap gold seller in a location in which BOTH parties to the transaction feel safe. This could be a coffee shop, an office, your sellers home, at a gold party…
Begin here:
- http://www.craigslist.org/about/sites. Click on your city.
- Click on “Post to Classifieds.”
- “Service Offered”
- “Financial Services” or “Small Biz Ads” Experiment with this category!
- Complete your listing and follow the instructions at Craigslist to confirm your listing.
- Carefully consider revealing your phone number. This is a personal decision. Listing a phone number rather than relying on email will result in more gold buying opportunities for you. Your location and personal aggressiveness will determine whether a phone number makes sense for you. 9Note the phone number in the sample Craigslist ad we have included below.)
