It's favorite Friday finds time! I love to scour Craigslist to see MCM items for sale, whether I need or can afford them or not. It's a bit torturous because I inevitably find something I love and want, but I know we all do it. Come on, admit it!
Here are some current faves for sale on CL Los Angeles & San Diego:

UPDATE on this piece: I tried to get it. I emailed 10 minutes after it was posted and said I would purchase it. Got an email about an hour later saying "Someone is coming to see it. I'll update you". I replied with an offer of a good amount more than she was asking but when she replied it was already sold. This one hurt. I really, really wanted this table. Oh well, can't win them all.
Mid Century Slat Bench with Cushion $65
I see some deals here. Granted, they aren't the prices my mid-west friends see but for LA some of these aren't too bad. I've got my eye on a couple of these pieces but unfortunately I'm off to a meeting in 20 minutes and I have a busy day after. I'm assuming my favorites here won't be there by day's end. (I was right - the magazine table, gone in a hour!)

squee! i'm with you on that table with the magazine rack. we've been waiting for the right (priced) one to cross our paths!
your CL is infinately more interesting than philadelphia's today. :(
The first one! Wow, I love that perfect mod piece! I'm on the prowl for a mod credenza for my "entryway". I have a better chance of making one than find the right one, of course :)
Loving your blog and passion for thrifting/modern design!
There are several pictures in this post that are making me drool a bit, like the walnut bookcase and the Danish Modern lamp, and of course the rosewood credenza. Your CL has so many more good things than ours does!
How funny is that... I totally named my post today Thrifty Friday Finds before I saw your post... must be channeling some Rhan's... :) Those pieces are really cool! Don't you just HATE it when something cool just slips through your hands? Many times I've had that happen to me on Craigslist.
I love that bookcase! I'd buy that one in a heartbeat. Sorry about the table. Always stinks to lose out.
