I've had pretty good luck with Craigslist. I got a great 27" Sony TV for free from some dude, traded my Surfboard for a Snowboard, found my current apartment (great rent) and even met my current girlfriend (6 months) through the Missed Connections board.
I had one bad experience where some lady sold me a busted audio receiver but I didn't pay much for it so it wasn't that big a deal.
I haven't used it in a while and I think they were just recently bought out? By Ebay if I remember correctly? So I don't know if that's changed anything. I just suggest you research as much as possible and use caution when buying stuff from individuals. You can get ripped off or worse but that's just the nature of that kind of stuff. If a good deal sounds too good to be true, it usually is. If someone seems shady, they probably are. Be careful.
