I have a used hot tub that I just want to get rid of. Is it best to donate it or sell it?
Answer
If you just want to get rid of it, why not donate it to charity? What way you have a tax right-off for next year and the charity can sell it and use the profit it gets from it to help them. It's a win-win situation for everyone.

Liability on hot tub selling through craigslist?
BBdiddily
We just sold our hot tub through craigslist. It was in perfect running order and a few years old. We sold it for $800 The man who came and got it paid cash and loaded on a truck. He did not strap it down even though we offer to help him do so and provide the rope. He called me after he got home to say on of the paneling side flew off and busted on the highway. Now he calls saying the fiberglass sheel is cracked and that is had to have been cracked when he got it from us and that he is filing charges of fraud by trickery against us. We know that the man unloaded it by himself (this is a large 8 foot square hot tub). It was not broke, leaking, etc when it left our home. It was sold as is no warranty or gaurantees. Can he do this and what can we do. It is broke now so I am not returning his money.
Answer
Do you have pictures of the tub from the time before it left your hands? You are not a merchant for this kind of gear, therefore you are not responsible for a warranty as far as I know. When you buy something used from a persn who is not a merchant, you take your chances. If this guy sues you, which I doubt he will, bring in your pictures showing the condition of the tub at the time it left your hands. You'll also want to testify that you offered to help him tie the thing down, but that he refused your offer. Also, there is a famous legal concept called "buyer beware." If the shell was cracked, it was his obligation to inspect the thing before he took delivery from you. When it comes out that he took the thing from you and did not tie it down before he drove away, he will look like a fool for suing you. I would not worry about this.
