Your Best Craigslist Finds

What are some of your best finds online??? Post 'em up and let's have a look!

Prior to purchasing my Taco a few months ago, I spent quite a bit of time on TacomaWorld.com as well as Craigslist trying to get an idea of what options I would want to pick up from the dealer and what I would try to find on my own. One thing I quickly found out is that Taco accessories were plentiful, and sometimes very cheap. With that in mind, I purchased my '11 PreRunner SR5 DC V-6 with steel wheels and no running boards. Everything I've purchased for it since has been found online and at deals substantially less than what would they would have cost new. Everything was in as-new condition. Thus far, I've picked up:

Leer 700 Tonneau Cover (Craigslist) for $500





TRD Off-Road Wheels (Craigslist ) for $300



WeatherTech Floor Mats, front & back (Craigslist) for $80



Tacoma Running Boards (TacomaWorld.com) for $200

 

Best craigslist deals to date for me:

Traded a $600ish full suspension mountain bike for a 98 YZ400F, rode the shit out of it for a year then sold it for $1300 bucks

Bought 2 stand up jet skis on a trailer for 1800 bucks, sold the first ski for 900, trailer for 300, box of parts that came with them for 600, then rode the other for 4 months prior to selling it for 1100. (Net gain = 1100)

This is probably better suited for off-topic discussion

 

Well, it was intended to discuss accessories purchased for your 2nd Gen Taco, hence the items I described in my original post. Guess I didn't specify what kind of finds, so it went a bit off track. So, with that having been said, what are your best Taco-related finds from online?
