It has been Officially [expletive removed] by bots programmed to flag your (a competitor's) post, so as to make your competitor's item achieve the advantage of sellability.

I've posted enough LEGIT ads on that site that continue to get flagged, over and over and over again that i'm going to say "[expletive removed] that site"; as they do not appear to have a solution to the problem at present.

I am just surprised that anybody actually thought that the spam-filled rubbish dump of of pages that made up "Craig's list" was ever useful.

I tried using it once to post a job vacancy on there. I thought to myself, why would anyone bother to use this site?

Good riddance, says I.

i've had some great times selling things on the site, it's just (very) recently the bot problem has gotten out of control. [at least in my area]

eBay is a horrible junk site, and even it's better than CraigsList.

I have actually had a couple of successful purchases from CL... eBay on the other hand I will never do again after being burned twice.

Craigslist still looks like it hasn't been updated since the 1990s.

Craigslist is good if you want to use services like tree trimming, painter, house cleaning or sell small stuff. I have found them to be useful for those things only.

I suppose that there are many alternatives available in the net with such quality and trustworthiness.
Try to do a search, compare all the options and choose the best for your needs.

I've felt that way about Craigslist for a long time. But, I suppose it's official now, because other people are starting to see Craigslist for what it is. Hype is what has brought it so far, nothing more. Let's move on.
