Atlanta is one of the busiest cities in the south. Between the city itself and its surrounding suburbs, there are so many people in and around Atlanta that Craigslist could be its own business in this region. Filled to the max with southern hospitality and people that work in and around the city in various industries, this is a southern city all the way. What this means is that people love their antiques, their vehicles and their homes. They also love a good bargain, which is why Craigslist is so popular around here. This is the place to go if you want to find something that’s worth your time and effort in terms of low prices, potential that hasn’t been realized by sellers and other buyers and so much more. There’s a big market for sellers and buyers on Craigslist in Atlanta, and that’s just why so many people want to sell their expensive items. Here are just a few of the most expensive items for sale in Atlanta on the Craigslist site.

NASCAR Collection – $100,000
You might love NASCAR but wonder why someone would want this kind of money for their collection, and it’s a fair question. The truth is that this is a collection that has so much going for it that it’s ridiculous. It’s one of the biggest collections you’ll ever see. There are hundreds of valuable collectible cars, cards and much more. There are engines from race cars and signed items from some of the most famous NASCAR drivers in the world, and in the history of the sport. Some are still alive and racing, some are retired and some have lost their lives on the track. This is the most comprehensive collection we’ve ever seen in any private home, and it’s probably well worth the asking price that this collector wants for his items and pieces.

2013 Porsche 911 – $104,300
The Porsche is a nice car. The 911 is one of the hottest sports cars in the world, and this one is no different. With very low mileage, it speaks that the owner has cared for it significantly as it’s been garage-kept and not driven too often. The car is in excellent condition and it features all the upgrades one can and does expect from a high-end sports car. This is not the kind of car you buy and treat poorly. You buy this car from this owner – and it’s only a one owner vehicle – and you’re going to want to take care of it as if it’s your baby. This car has leather interior, hi-tech dash features and a great rate of acceleration. You’ll have to be careful in this car since it’s so hard not to drive it like a race car, but it’s got great handling and the ability to do well in Atlanta’s infamous heavy traffic.

Princess Diana Beanie Baby – $150,000
When Princess Di was alive, she was very famous. When she died tragically from injuries sustained in a horrific vehicle accident back in 1997, she became even more famous. She is one of the most idolized women in the world, and when she passed there were many items made to commemorate her life. This particular purple beanie baby was one of them. This is the Princess Diana beanie baby, and it’s said to be very rare. It’s said that there are only a few of these in the world, and that’s why the seller is asking this much money for something so small and seemingly child-like. The ad states that the beanie baby was handmade in china, and it does feature a card that has a memorial note to Princess Di. It does still have the tags attached to it, but the original receipt for the item is missing. Perhaps the price is a mere typo, as it does happen from time to time on the site. This is something that many people might find they want in their own homes for a smaller price, but it’s not certain anyone will pay $150k for a stuffed animal that was made in China.

1965 Chevy Corvette – $150,000
A classic car all the way, this impressive coupe is one for the books. The cherry red is all it needs to make it a classic American sports car, but its impressive condition makes it even more worthy of the attention of a collector. This is a classic American muscle car with no hi-tech features and nothing that makes the inside even remotely special when compared to the kind of hi-tech cars we drive today, but it’s still the kind of car that’s worth more than most of what’ son the road today. Why? Because it’s a well cared for muscle car that’s been treated with respect; something that the classic Corvette deserves. Chevy still makes a nice ‘vette that anyone would be happy to drive, but none of the newer models are anywhere near as impressive, stylish or classic as the 1965. It’s a collector’s dream car, especially since it’s in such wonderful condition.

House on Lake Sinclair – $169,000
Sometimes you just want a piece of waterfront property, and this one is pretty inexpensive. This house has just over 900 square feet, a big porch and a private dock. With three bedrooms and two bathrooms, it’s not a large house, but it does have a large yard right on the water. It appears that this home, which is listed as built in 1997, is actually a manufactured home set up on a little bit of a hill with a front porch built on so that it looks a bit more even and upscale, but it’s not actually listed whether or not this is the case. The house features a long dock that extends over Lake Sinclair, and the dock is listed as one that has a constant water level high enough to leave your boat in the water. The owners of this home for sale on Craigslist say that it’s perfect for anyone who enjoys water skiing, jet skiing and boating, and the weather is listed as being nice enough most of the year to spend a great deal of time fishing and out on the boat.

2015 Mercedes Benz S550 Coupe – $200,000
Brand new with no miles on it, this coupe is one of the hottest cars on the market today. So it’s not a classic car that’s going to increase its value over the coming years, but it’s one that you will want to drive every single day. This sexy little coupe is a looker, and it’s certainly going to make heads turn at every light, every stop sign and in every parking lot. You won’t want to drive this car through the fast food drive-thru; it demands more respect than that. The new Mercedes coupe has everything you could possibly imagine in terms of features and amenities, from a hi-tech touch screen navigation system to a hi-tech interior that features cooled and heated seats and so much more. The couple does have plenty of space despite its small appearance, which is why it makes a great vehicle to drive.

2014 Bentley Continental – $225,123
Who doesn’t want to drive a gorgeous car to make a great impression? While there are a number of cars on the market that are super nice and make a significant impression of wealth and prestige, few do it quite as well as a gorgeous Bentley. This vehicle has only 208 miles on the odometer, which means it was hardly used. In fact, it hasn’t even gone through a full tank of gas yet. This car has it all; every upgrade imaginable. This car has leather seats, a moon roof, hi-tech features such as navigation and rear-entertainment system. It has room for the entire family, and it’s a car that is going to turn heads unlike many other vehicles on the road. It’s a wonder why any Atlanta resident would want to get rid of this ride.

Waterfront Home – $295,000
Located in Kennesaw, this gorgeous waterfront piece of property is for sale. It’s a standard southern-style brick home with the same features and upgrades you’d expect in a house that’s for sale in a nice community in the Atlanta area. The house is located in the Chastain Lakes suburb of Atlanta, and it features a big yard, access to a community pool and even some waterfront views. The house has a very fair asking price in the current market in and around Atlanta, though it might seem relatively inexpensive to some. This house has some great features, but you’ll have to contact the seller to get them. The seller has listed no personal information regarding the house and it’s amenities, which means there is no word on the number of beds or baths, nor does anyone know the square footage, which is something most buyers are interested in learning.
