Craigslist Reviews

No I'm not some loser 40 year old man. I'm a young, in shape female in her 20s and a college student.

I was horny one afternoon and up for a evening of fun. I had no boyfriend and I had heard about craigslist and figured it was worth a shot. Man was I wrong.

I put out an ad stating that I wanted a student on campus and he must send a picture.

The ad wasn't up for more than a hour before I got at least 10 replies. None from students all from middle aged men that I had no interest in.

Some sent me copy/paste replies that they'd probably already sent to every female in that area. Others...

Dear Craig,

Your catchy little web site name is a good one.   I am in awe that you've yet to cash in on your huge network of community web sites.   People across the United States are using the Craigslist in their city to find childcare, classes, mates, jobs, housing, gigs, forums and more.   I use it myself, and quite often, with great success.   The traffic to all your sites combined must be amazing and huge.

However, while you have succeeded, 100%, in creating ultra-opular community web sites for cities across the U.S., I fail to understand your unbending attitude about offering a universal...

I love this website - I have gotten so many great things from ads I've found on craigslist.  My best find was a free Lazy Boy couch that was in great shape, and only a couple of miles away! Other finds have included a mattress set and a cell phone.

Another great thing about the web site is being able to post free ads for stuff you don't want anymore - I have sold a blender, a rug, and my car!

I think the most important thing this site does is allow users to flag ads for removal. This keeps spammers away very effectively.

We have sold furniture, bought furniture, sold all kinds of household items and bought all kinds as well - We are hopelessly addicted to Craigslist. No Fees - all local - no bidding - SO much better than eBay, now that it's become SO pricey to buy anything on there. Only thing I don't like is that many users neglect to remove their listing once an item is sold. But, if you have a little patience, you can find what you are looking for and for a great price. Be sure to use common sense - if someone seems sketchy, don't do business with them. I've found that I am more comfortable meeting people at...

The local newspaper outlet here - Mid Iowa Newspapers allows people to place five classified ads in their paper for free each month. On the few occasions I have wanted to sell something in the classifieds, I went to them for the free ads. Those are in print and on the web.

Then I found someone's cat. He was obviously an expensive Siamese cat. I made flyers and stuff (and put an ad in Mid Iowa), and I decided to also put an ad on craigslist.org to get the most exposure. It was one sentence, about nine words. I used the anonymous email address thing, and it has the "It is NOT OK to contact this poster.......

I have been doing some dealing on Craig's List in my local area and am finding it to have mixed results.  The first couple of items I put on the list were not even responded to.  After that, I put a few more things on and had people who wanted to meet me halfway, or 30 miles from my home.  One person came to buy our trash compactor and drove more than an hour through traffic to get here, then paid the asking price.  I knew there were people out there like me who would go to the seller's home instead of asking to meet me.  After all, my town is listed in the ad.

We were doing some landscaping...

Craigslist (san antonio) is nothing but a waste of time because of the flaggers. I try posting ads trying to rescueunwanted small critters like rabbits and guinea pigs and I kept getting flagged and my ad would get deleted. I'm trying to help people and animals and rude people have my ad deleted. I've also seen many complaints posted as ads of many people who want to help pets and are disgusted and annoyed with people flagging their ads as well.Today I read this  one complaint from this one user who was trying to re-home a bull mastiff she tryed to rescue. Here's the ad posted by her neighbor  keep...
