Some general Freecycle advice from a long time list owner

(1/3) > >>

ChadTower:

If you're going to send out email that says "please help i need baby clothes crib some shoes a mattress and a car if u got 1"...

... don't send it from an email address of phattybabylicious, lyteupda420, or bbw334hotfun.

Just a thought.

shardian:
I'm to the point I just delete the freecycle emails without reading them. They need to rename it "begcycle".

ChadTower:

It helps to set up a filter that separates the OFFERs from the WANTEDs.  If you want you can even chuck the WANTEDs right into the trash can.  Sadly, I can't, as I have to keep an eye on them as list admin.

shardian:
The offer stuff is worthless too. I guess it doesn't help that I live in WV. The backwoods people apparently love freecycle.

zaphod:
Tried FreeCycle a few times to get rid of perfectly functional printers and a few other tech items.  Ran into too many no shows.  That and the fact that near the end of the year 95% of the messages were "give me, give me, give me".  Sad to say, but it was completely not worth my effort.
