I used to offload my used stuff on Craigslist. I was swamped with people intentionally trying to waste my time only to be lowballed at the last minute. Out of principal I would always tell them to F* off. I used to take adds down after the first person who agreed to buy it, these days the ads stays up until the money is in my hand, and I insta block anyone who tries to negotiate. Often it’s still too much of a hassle so I just donate it to charity.

I usually sell stuff that has any value for 50-70% of value to friends or family not to deal with idiots.

Anything that is meh but someone from friends or family would like I give away.

Then I throw away. Even giving stuff away for free can be too much hassle if you put stuff online.

Might want to look at how you're wording your ads. At least in my city, it's normal to ask "will you take $x" if the wording isn't clear that it's a firm price, and those offers usually result in a completed sale.

I repeat that it’s final price and no-negotiation etc. This is stated in all communication. I have a good hourly rate so inconveniences quickly stop being worth my time. Lowballers don’t read. They’re professionally annoying for a living and there’s very little you can do about it if the marketplace allows it. Also Lowballers ask ridiculous prices, like 90% off an already 50% discount, they know what they’re doing and it must work for them often enough for them to do this seemingly full time.
