Be wary giving out your home address when posting stuff on Craigslist.

I've been selling a lot of bike parts, among with other non bike related items on CL lately.....but nothing high end, including my bikes. I also worry about giving out my home address. For small items I always give out my business address and conduct CL sales at work. That's been working out pretty good.
I've been downsizing my fleet of bikes, I've sold 4 bikes so far using CL in the past several weeks.
