(kimmie321) I’ve been a member of Listia for over 4 years.  I check into Listia first thing every morning. I love browsing through all the auctions, seeing and finding items I cannot find where I live. When the holidays are coming up or I have someone’s birthday, I now go to Listia first. I know I can always find that perfect gift. I often find myself when out shopping looking for new and interesting items to post on Listia. I love the idea of being able to give away items that will help others on here.  For me, Listia started out as a hobby but has become so much more for me as time went by. I’m always thinking about how to list my items to make them more fun for everyone. I love this site and have meet wonderful new friends I would not have gotten to know without it.

(andreahartbengyel) My husband told me about Listia and that I should check it out. I joined a year ago just out of curiosity. I soon found out how much fun it was to win items! I was doing a lot of surveys to earn credits to buy crafts and clothes for the kids. Then one day, I thought, why not list stuff for credits instead of doing all these offers. I was hooked to selling on Listia in no time! Last year, I had to quit my job  but Listia has really been my outlet and kept me busy from getting depressed. I have worked all my life and it was a very hard adjustment. I love all the positive feedback I have gotten on here. It makes me feel appreciated and happy to read all the awesome stuff people say. I take Listia very seriously and hope to be around many more years.

(mandykeller1004) I’ve only been on Listia for a few months now and stumbled upon it by chance. I was skeptical at first but when I won my first auction and the seller contacted me right away, I was so intrigued. A few days went by and I actually received my item in the mail and it was from that point on that I’ve been addicted to Listia. As a single mother it has been a life saver when I needed it the very most! My children’s entire Easter (besides the little bit of candy of course) was from Listia! My heart was so full and happy as I put their Easter baskets together Saturday night before heading to bed. I just stood there and stared at them for a moment because I just couldn’t believe it. I’ve also recently moved into my first home where I can actually plant flowers and plants like I’ve always dreamt about.  Through Listia, I have not only won 15 or more types of flowers my children and I can plant here very soon but I’ve also adopted my 6 new house plants that I absolutely love : ) I’ve been blessed to meet many of amazing new friends that I’d never have the chance to meet if it weren’t for my Listia. Keep it up!

(kweandee) One of my best friends referred me to Listia back in February of last year. She said it was a great way to get rid of old stuff and get new stuff in it’s place. We have been absolutely addicted ever since! I’m one of those people who hate throwing good stuff away or sticking it in a drawer to collect dust when someone else out there who could enjoy them, yet there’s only so many items places take in terms of donations (mostly just clothes). Listia was the perfect place to put them. I love seeing the things I have find a new home with people who will appreciate them as much as I did and aside from finding an array of new items to enjoy myself, I’ve been able to find a variety of items to give as gifts to my family and friends as well. The people I’ve met on here are also some of the friendliest people I’ve ever known. I honestly can’t say I’ve never had a better online experience then I’ve had on this site and just wanted to say thank you to whoever created it. 🙂

(ssj4ubuy) I just want you (Listia) to know that I have been partially disabled and have depression and anxiety issues and my last year or more has been spent checking in and listing the best items possible and have really enjoyed helping people get interesting things. I have made efforts to get people to join as much as I can and list as much as possible also. I really want to earn the all star badge because I have been trying my hardest to send super fast with tracking and insurance even many times and always have been fair if someone has any issues. I truly believe in this site and the awesome trade system you guys and gals are providing. Thanks for your consideration and for making Listia. It’s the only auction site I use. No Amazon or eBay even. Thanks again for everything you provide!!

(97141mom) I remember waking up at 7am one early morning and I clicked on Facebook and saw a post about Listia. I was curious. So, after I signed up, I noticed a lot of people giving stuff away. I was hooked. I am a part time self-employed divorced mother who has been through hard times and good times. I am also a true artist who loves art. I found good friendships and art supplies so I can fulfill my dreams. I believe Listia has helped me with that. I’ve found some good friends on here, who appreciate me for me and enjoys life.
