Money Experiment – Old Music Player fetches $35

One of the items on my yard sale was a Creative Zen Music Player that I’d bought in 04. The last time I used it was when I was in Montgomery, Alabama and I have been living in Austin since November of 05. So you can pretty much say it was lying around the house just collecting dust over the years. I put it on sale last week for $25, without being too optimistic that it would actually sell for 25 bucks. Well, an hour after I put it on Craigslist, the emails started coming in. I was really surprised to see how many people were interested in this vintage MP3 player. To be honest, I wasn’t quite good with keeping up with all the emails given that I had north of 25 items on sale. Long story short, a gentleman picked it up yesterday. He was so happy with the player that he gave me an extra $10. Pretty cool huh?
