Old Appliances Sold!

Although the amount will barely offset the cost of anything in the new kitchen, we have successfully sold the old appliances!

The kitchen appliances: Refrigerator, dishwasher, microwave, oven sold for $850 combo on craigslist. Price them right and they will move fast. I put them up at 9am yesterday and had a check in hand by 9pm. They can't pick them up until next weekend, but we can just keep them in the garage.

The washer & dryer had multiple calls and this morning, someone came by - paid cash and had me help him load them. So those are gone too. $400 for the pair.

Through a mass of 'prospective buyers' emails and phone calls yesterday, I've learned that some people not only don't realize that refrigerators DON'T fit in the back of an SUV, or that you can't put them on their sides or backs. Some people think I'm crazy enough to sell 4 BRAND NEW kitchen appliances for $850 (they are 3.5 years old for the record).

And people are very concerned about used appliances being "clean."

In the end, they are all sold and the kitchen is almost ready for the tear out on Tuesday. Yay!
