Craigslist in the Austin area ROCKS! Not sure why so many people are down on CL, especially in the Austin TX area. I have always had spectacular results selling my stuff on CL. Yes, there are the occasional deadbeats who try to low ball, or who don't show up, and the occasional scammer (who are easy to recognize). But that happens on any board. I love CL.

CL is the absolute worst site right… CL is the absolute worst site right now...after placing legitimate and legal posts over and over again I get removed for no reason and no explanation whatsoever!! Don’t ever bother posting! On top of it all you see totally obvious inappropriate posts for weeks without getting flagged...who are these clowns !?

Going back to the square wheel era I've been on computers since 1991 and this is the most ridiculous platform I've ever come across in my life. When eBay classifieds was around or now with Facebook Marketplace you simply check off all the ads that you want to renew and it's done. This useless outfit is so backwards that if you don't renew your ad on the day that they decide, they then delete the photographs from your ad unless you're up between approximately midnight and 3:00 a.m. California time. Then you've got to search on your phone for the photographs, it's so backwards. I wouldn't recommend this to anybody until they update their stupid software. After renewing five ads, at to your sixth ad it says you're renewing too rapidly. Hence my point above why not just have the person check off the ads that you want to renew when that time is coming up and renew them like Facebook Marketplace. They also delete ads that are not offensive in any way. This has become quite common lately.

Flagging has made the site unusable Flagging mechanism is grossly abused with no way to review, correct or appeal. Legitimate ads are taken down in minutes or a few hours at the most with no warning just because someone can click 'flag' at the top of the page. This not only makes the site unusable to sell or promote anything, but also severely limits the pool of legitimate offers which might be of interest to buyers.

Whoever who established Craigslist should be ashamed. They actually sold me a terrible device which was not even efficient and they also scammed me. At first, I thought that Craigslist was an amazing company. But they are real liars and totally bad scammers. Whoever who established Craigslist should be ashamed.
