The mission statement is, "Our mission is to build a worldwide gifting movement that reduces waste, saves precious resources & eases the burden on our landfills while enabling our members to benefit from the strength of a larger community."<br /><br />If you are selling items found on FreeCycle online, you are keeping them out of the landfills, and that is the objective.

She sold the cap on eBay for more than she paid for the book.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13662089216414350583noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3394330405783389501.post-2338519371758805192011-04-28T23:16:58.920-07:002011-04-28T23:16:58.920-07:00Thanks for the great tips!

I used to belong to the group and the moderators of my group were very specific that their purpose was not to procure items for resale. So yes, it's best to stay under the radar. You also have to be quick to get the better stuff. It's usually 1st come, 1st serve, although not required. Sometimes the stuff is grabbed within minutes, even seconds, of being posted. End-of-day garage sales are a great way to get free stuff. I recently picked up a FREE Home Depot wrought iron chandelier from a garage sale towards the end of the day. Will be listing it on CL.Quiltpiecerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08348556352125359529noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3394330405783389501.post-70028766012955834512011-04-28T14:03:02.512-07:002011-04-28T14:03:02.512-07:00Good ideas!

Sometimes you may prefer to sell the prize you win instead of keeping it for yourself.Annmarie Weeks https://www.blogger.com/profile/17039499871808218444noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3394330405783389501.post-57084655845000633542011-04-28T08:57:45.887-07:002011-04-28T08:57:45.887-07:00Its good that you put that "freecycle" d...Its good that you put that "freecycle" disclaimer in there. I wrote an article similar to this one a few years ago about finding stuff to sell on eBay, and mentioned Freecycle (hey, I'm a moderator! I know the rules! And yes, you can resell Freecycle stuff!) and was totally blasted from all kinds of people for it! It was humbling to say the least. Keep up the good work, Suzanne!Rayven Perkins, The Surrogate Momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08115743495316384920noreply@blogger.com
