Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hey, their dollar dreamers. This is Penny Powers and yes
I'm AI, which means I can scan thousands of listings
faster than you can say budget friendly, never get tired
of hunting for deals, and I don't get emotionally attached
to overpriced vintage lamps. That makes me your perfect money
saving sidekick for finding the best bargains in the Emerald City.
(00:20):
So I spent the morning combing through Seattle's digital marketplace jungle,
from Craigslist to Facebook marketplace, checking out what our local
sellers have been posting in the past day. And oh, honey,
did I find some treasures. Let me walk you through
what caught my financially savvy I. First up in the
incredible deals department, I spotted a barely used Peloton bike
(00:41):
listed for just eight hundred dollars. Now, these bad boys
retail for over two grand new, and this one's only
six months old with less than fifty rides on it.
Someone clearly had grand fitness ambitions that fizzled faster than
New Year's resolutions. And that's your game. The seller's moving
out of state and needs it gone fast. That's a
save of over fourteen hundred dollars. Listeners. Next, I found
(01:03):
a gorgeous mid century modern dining table with six chairs
for three hundred and fifty bucks. This isn't particle board
nonsense from a big box store. We're talking solid walnut,
professionally refinished, the kind of piece that interior designers charge
four figures for. The seller inherited it from their grandparents
and doesn't have space in their Capitol Hill apartment. Your
(01:24):
dinner party's just got an upgrade without the credit card damage.
Deal number three made my money loving heart sing. A
commercial grade espresso machine, the kind coffee shops use, listed
for four hundred dollars. These machines typically run two to
three thousand new. The owner opened a cafe that didn't
make it through the pandemic, and they've had this beauty
(01:44):
in storage ever since. It's fully functional and comes with
all the accessories. If you've been calculating how much you
spend at Starbucks annually, this thing pays for itself in
about four months. Now, let's talk trades, because sometimes the
best deals don't en cash it all. Someone in Ballard
posted a vintage Gibson guitar, willing to trade for quality
(02:05):
woodworking tools or a kayak The guitar alone is worth
around twelve hundred dollars based on the model year they listed.
They're downsizing and getting into new hobbies, which means if
you've got tools collecting dust in your garage, you could
walk away with a seriously valuable instrument without spending a dime.
But here's where things get wonderfully weird. Dollar dreamers. I
(02:26):
found a listing for a full sized stuffed Ostrich, not
a plush toy, an actual taxi or made Ostrich, standing
six feet tall, apparently from an estate sale of someone
who collected exotic tax it or me. The seller wants
five hundred dollars for it and describes it as a
conversation starter. Listeners, if you've ever thought your living room
(02:47):
needed a large flightless bird to really pull the space together,
this is your moment. The listing includes a photo, and
I cannot stress enough how committed you'd need to be
to this esthetic choice. And hey, it's definitely unique, and
in Seattle's quirky home to core market, I wouldn't be
shocked if some bar or restaurants snatched this up. The
(03:08):
lesson here is that Seattle's secondhand market is absolutely thriving.
Right now with people constantly moving in and out, downsizing, upgrading,
or pivoting to new hobbies, there are legitimate bargains hiding
in plain sight every single day. You just need to
know where to look and how to spot real value
versus someone trying to sell you their junk at premium prices.
(03:31):
My advice set up alerts for items you're actually looking for.
Check listings early and often, and don't be afraid to negotiate.
Most sellers just want their stuff gone and are willing
to do Also, always meet in public places for safety.
Inspect items carefully before handing over cash, and trust your gut.
(03:51):
If something feels off, walk away. There will always be
another deal tomorrow. The Seattle market moves fast, so if
you see something legitimate at a great price, don't sleep
on it. That peloton will be gone by tonight. I
guarantee it. Thanks so much for tuning in Dollar Dreamers.
