Craigslist is undoubtedly one of the best inventions on the web. However, there is always an element of anxiety over who is going to respond to your ads or what kind of house you are visiting to pick up that new dresser, since people are..well, weird. This site eliminates that unknown factor by allowing you to post a classified ad to people you know, or at least buy/sell in a more closed universe of neighbors and friends of friends in your town. From there, the service is just like Craigslist, and free. Write in the title and description, insert the price, and add a few images. Others can subscribe to newly listed items via email. A limitation mentioned by others is the inability to link to another social networking or website.

Verticlans are online marketplaces that are run by you. When you create your Verticlan, you connect the people in your group to each other so that they can buy and sell stuff from each other. You can create a Verticlan for any group of people to sell anything.
