Craigslist, “Pre-Sales,” and Rummages

I’m a little late to the game, but now that rummage sale season is almost over I realized that I need a fall/winter wardrobe for C.  I’ve been perusing Craigslist a lot and have been seeing some things that confuzzle me.  Yes, confuzzle.  ;)

First of all, what is with people having indoor sales in their basements now?  No, I do not want to come over and dig through bins of baby clothes in your basement while you murder me with an ice pick.

Second, when did people start having pre-sales before their rummage sales?  I didn’t think I needed to call and set up a time to look over your stuff the day before your actual garage sale.  Ridiculous.

One final note – if your pictures turn out blurry or there’s a big finger in front of the clothes because you don’t know how to take a picture, please for the love just retake the picture.  I’m not going to buy clothes from you if I can’t see what I’m getting.

Have you had luck finding baby/toddler clothes at rummage sales?
