Something I did not know is that Kijiji is owned by EBay. They created it in 2005 however I’m unsure really why they created it. Says it’s an online local classified community however I’ve used it many times and it’s been much more powerful than EBay and best thing it’s FREE!
So yeah I’ve used Kijiji in the last week and have been pretty successful. I’ve had a pair of –50 degree sleeping bags that I used only once and so far ended up selling one of them with the other to be sold tomorrow. Who buys sleeping bags online? LOL I thought it was a long shot however people want them. Not that there is anything wrong with these, I know where they’ve been 
I also sold my old Sony PSP 1001, first version. It’s in mint condition and got that sucker sold! I didn’t even pay anything for it, used airmiles to get it long time ago. Well I did spend a lot of money to get airmiles so really in a round about way I spent money on it. Either way it’s gone and someone else will make better use of it.
I’ve sold a bunch of stuff on it such as my old DVD player, 27inch T.V. that really didn’t work that well yet they still wanted it. If you’ve not checked out the marvel that is Kijiji then go check it out! I bet there is junk in your house that’s just dying to get out and into someone else’s hands. I mean really if you’ve got something packed away and have never used it in a year, GET RID OF IT!
Anyway this is my filler post for the evening, I think it’s valid, I like Kijiji
I love Kijiji too. We’ve bought a few things off of it including a dresser for Lily, our sectional, and a potato bin just the other night. I’ve also sold some cloth diapers on it. I’m currently looking for some stools to put at our new island but I haven’t seen anything I want yet. Yay Kijiji!
I love that I can give products a new home instead of collecting dust. When I buy a Wii from some one who longer uses it, not only to I free up their home of clutter, but it also means that one doesn’t need to be manufactured and shipped to my local store so I can go buy it. It’s just one item, but if more of us bought this way imagine the effect on consumerism? Saskatoon can have a small selection though I’m looking for bunk beds for the girls (new mattresses though I feel that should be new) and these only a couple to pick from and I’m selective (white, wood, stacking not L shaped for space)
Kijiji has really taken over craigslist, who really were the first recycling good listing service to go big. Does Google own Ebay?
I think Ebay owns themselves, they are a publicly traded company.
Google actually has part ownership in craigslist too.
Kijiji is great, we got our second fridge, our Wii, and today Erron got the balance board for the Wii, all at good prices. We’ve found a farm to buy pigs, places to buy chickens and our nanny helper that came in part time after Micah was born too.
That’s pretty sweet. Keep the Kijiji stories coming, I’d love to find out what other people have used Kijiji for.
