Well we already have cheap dvd players, so this really worked out for us.
So, I tried listing a baby Bumbo seat, hoping it would sell, and I listed it for $25, but no luck...no one has even inquired. What do you guys think is a fair price? And does anyone know if there is a way to renew your ad, to bump it up, or do you have to delete it and make a new one?

I would ask $15 for the seat. I ask for bottom dollar figuring I wouldn't get more than $5 for stuff at a yard sale. It has to be a SUPER deal for someone to want to come to your house or meet you somewhere and pick up the item. I sold a crib for $30. Needless to say, that went quick. It was out of my way and into a new home.
Requirements are different for each region. For example the DC Craigslist expires in 7 days, Western MD expires in 45 days. If you delete an ad in Western MD, you can relist it the next day. If you try to relist it the same day you get a message about top posting. The best day to list an item is on Thursday. People are looking for things to pick up over the weekend. You might want to delete your item and relist it on Thursday. Good luck!
