Fuck you Craigslist and your random ghosting bullshit - Page 2

Had the same issue. Yup, it's a pain. You need to verify your account. Log in (top left corner) and go through the verify by phone option and there's one other verify option...you do that and your ads will start appearing again. I did that and can post again.

Still couldn't sell my truck there, had to take it to Carmax.

found out that ANYONE can flag a ad for no reason... and nothing is reviewed... fucking ghey.

You seriously needed to suspect someone on this site for flagging it as spam.

Indeed. For a truck with a clunking G80, a leaking AC, a trans that gets stuck every so often, a busted CD player and 650 in back DMV fees, I'll take it. Better than dealing with some idiot coming back and raging at me about all the problems.

Actually wholesale was quoted at about 40% of what they gave me.

We need to go back to ebay. Seriously, we have lots of shit to sell...let's get on that within the next few weeks.

Watch when you put together your ebay listing. I heard there is a box that is pre checked for featured item at $14.95 per listing.

Verified my account 2x by phone - same deal.

Guess your only option is to kill yourself then.

I used CL once to sell a guitar and that's all it took for me to decide to never sell anything else through there again. That place is a fucking mess. Ebay, Amazon and forums are the only outlets I sell shit through now.

Since we're talking about Ebay.. for anyone that hasn't used it in a while check for a 10% off coupon. I think you have to have paypal linked to your acct. to get it. I found out I had one the other day and none too soon; it would have expired the 31st.

Guess I'm not sure what you mean by ghosting. How many times are you deleting and re-posting the same ad, and why? Are you just trying to get to the top of the list? I thought there was a rule you can't re-post until 3 days after deleting it.
