Craigslist Finds in Mineola

Each week, we here at Patch will do the hard work of finding unusual, useful, or great deals on Craigslist. Now, if you’re interested, all that’s left to do is contact the owner.

Boogie in the… Lamp Light

Add a little retro style to your home with these “mid century” table lamps. The two lamps have an etched glass base and are classic pieces. The seller is asking $60 for both lamps.

Get Your Game On

For the gaming enthusiast, this PSP 3,000 is the perfect addition to any device collection. A case, car charger, 8GB memory card and screen protector are included with the PSP. The system was “sparingly used,” according to the advertisement. Asking price is $90.

Scoot Off into the Distance

Breeze around Mineola in this Aprilia Atlantic 200 scooter, which is currently for sale. In a time when gas prices continue to climb, the scooter gets 51 miles to the gallon – with a 2.3 gallon tank – and can go to speeds up to 70 miles per hour. Though the scooter has a few small cosmetic damages, it runs fantastically and is the perfect fit for a beginner. The $1,800 price is negotiable – as long as the offer is reasonable and serious.

You’ve Got Mail
House those precious letters safely with this mailbox and cast aluminum post. The mailbox was used for a year and, therefore, has some minimal weather wear. It features a customizable name plaque on the front. However, the gold mail flag has a design flaw, which the seller fixed but said it is currently “non-functional.” The seller is asking for $100. 

Get Ahead of the Curve

Children can get a head start learning with this early reading “Learning to Sequence 4-Scene Set,” which includes 48 picture cards for those in kindergarten through third grade. The set helps children utilize critical thinking skills through picture stories. The set sells for $19.95 at retail, but the seller is asking for $10.
