I usually start my Craigs List stuff at the low end of what I think it would fetch on eBay. I figure that's fair, and since the people are saving the shipping cost it's a very fair offer for them. I'm happy that I don't have to fuss with packing it.


That's exactly how I feel.

At least around here there is a serious problem with Craig's List.
Competitors (or possibly hall monitor net nazis) instantly claim your listing is off topic and it gets quickly pulled.

I was surprised when it happened to me.
When it also happened repeatedly to a mightily pissed auctioneer selling collector guitars, I started to see a trend.

Apparently the complaint threshold is insanely low, and there is no checking for axe grinders or still-living-with-mommy types.

All listings were solidly on topic and totally legit.


It has not happened to me here (other than my joke posts etc), soulds
like you have a legitimate gripe!

Around here it takes a flurry of posters to get an off-topic post reported. One just won't do it.

The posts involved were solidly and emphatically on topic.
