Why did my post get taken down ?

I posted an add to sell my guinea pigs and it got taken down I was curious as to why this is

I've been having trouble reaching the customer care line for Craig's List. It's frustrating that I can't seem to get any assistance with my issues. I feel like the site is becoming a joke and a waste of time. Maybe it would be better if they just took it down. I'm even considering contacting the Better Business Bureau to report this.

Unfortunately, Craigslist does not provide any information about why they can take the posts down on the company website. Please contact the Craigslist customer care team for assistance. You should be able to reach out to them:
  • via the support form at sfbay.craigslist.org/contact;
  • via the company's social networks.

Based on reddit.com your issue is quite common among other Craigslist users. Customers try to reload, clean cache, close VPN, use a different browser or even try to reply from another device.

How long do I have to wait for item to be picked up?

My son sold an item, the lady paid cash. This was 6 weeks ago, she kept changing the day she would pick it up (very heavy).

Now her phone is disconnected. How long does he have to hold the item?

Unfortunately, Craigslist FAQs don't provide information about your question. As a buyer has already paid for the item, you can hold it until the buyer gets it or asks for his money back.
