Seattle Craigslist Sellers Paradise
May 21, 2008Seattle Craigslist sellers are our favorite people, and to prove it, we're now offering them the chance to import their Craigslist items here with 0 red tape. Simplicity is Bonanzle's obsession, and I don't think it can be made much simpler than clicking here.
That link will take the user on a magical ride straight to the Craigslist item import screen, where sellers who already have items on Craigslist can get their booth started off on the right foot by zipping their Craigslist items straight to Bonanzle. Of course, the items still live on Craigslist, and can still be sold through Craigslist, but this offers double the exposure for 1/2 the effort.
Why try something other than comfy, friendly old Craigslist? If I may paraphrase our Top 10 Features list:
- 5. See one item, see 'em all. Your items are no longer rubber duckies lost in an ocean of items. On Bonanzle, if a buyer sees one of your items, they'll see up to 8 others prominently featured. Sellers sell faster, buyers find what they want more quickly.
- 4. Importers. eBay and Craigslist item importers mean you can start Bonanzling immediately.
- 3. Price guesser, picture cropper, and the miraculous one page, one minute item post. And you thought that posting stuff for sale couldn't get faster than Craigslist? How about an average posting time of 1-2 minutes for as many things as you got??
- 2. Meet people like you. Buying and selling is the destination, but we bet you'll have more fun on the journey than at the destination. Where else can you meet people who live nearby you with similar interests, and still buy and sell items faster than eBay?
- 1. Bonanza! The site is called "Bonanzle" for a reason! A Bonanza proves the universal truth that your stuff + lots of people = $ $$ !
- 0. Is free cheap enough? No site that models itself after Craigslist is going to charge eBay prices, now is it? We just want you here, and we want your friends to join you.

P.S. We also like other Craigslisters, and the item importer will work with Craigslist items from any locale. Seattle is specifically targeted here because Bonanzle is in beta, Bonanzle is based in Seattle, and so the first market we intend to test it out on is the Puget Sound-area market. That said, if you found us and don't live in Seattle, you're still most welcome to user the above link and see what the fuss is all about.
