Cruising Through Craigslist: Summer Style

A look at what the people of West Islip are selling this week.

It's July, it's hot and you're in need of some new toys to play with.  Well look no further, as I've compiled a master list of the finest summer items that local Craigslist peddlers have to offer.

Boat

This 70hp Mercury Outboard was manufactured the same year as the film Superman (1979).   Not sure how super a 31-year-old boat can be, but for $1,450 it might be worth a try.

BBQ Tools

A brand new set of barbecue cooking utensils for only $15.  Package comes complete with spatula, brushes, fork, tongs, and metal skewer sticks.  Delicious, marinated ribeyes sold separately.

Air Conditioners

For only $150, you can own two 8,000 BTU window units.  Good thing the price is cheap, because you're monthly electric bill will soon be tripled.

Nautical-style dresser  

This person is selling vintage dressers with sailboats carved into them.  This way, you won't have to drive your kids to the beach.  Just have them stare and pretend.

Surfboard

Hang ten on this 7'6 Nature Shapes surfboard.  Comes with leash, three skegs, Joker traction pad, and sock ($300).  Seller emphasizes it's for "serious buyers only."   That's because hurricane season is no joke.  

Free Sand

Remember that part in Old School where Vince Vaughn said he knew a "really good sand guy?"   Well, he was referring to them.

Christmas Supplies

Sure it's the middle of summer, but is it ever too early to start thinking about the holidays?  This seller obviously doesn't think so.  They're looking to get rid of ornaments, candles, gifts, decorations, mangers, and a fiber optic village.

Lawnmowers

Yes, it's plural.  This person is trying to sell three mowers.  Home Depot should be very jealous.
