Verified Reviewer |I like Craig’s list
Just wish Craigslist would monitor listings of cars for sale better. For instance, car sales on Craigslist they have two categories: for sale by owner and for sale by dealer.
Technically, a dealer can list in for sale by owner area as they are the owner of the vehicle.
It should be for sale by private party and also for sale by dealer. Anybody selling one or two cars a year has the listing a private party sale., but if you have 2 or more, you're classified as a dealer and you have to list in the dealer area.
- It good
- Car dealers is a scamming pretending to be private party selling cars
Preferred solution: Car sales two categories1named for sale by private party and 2 for sale by dealer. heat dealers or private party sales area.
Prevented from creating an account.
Looking deeper into Why Not?? I found that CraigsList requires an "M1 chip" mac!!
That chip came out in '23 only 2.5 years ago!!!
This means that CL is Missing Out on (and Frustrating!) maybe Millions of users. Why generate that much ill will???
Mac users LOVE their hearty Macs and KEEP them a long time.
I was happy to find a phone number, but could only leave a VM.
Will I ever get a return call??
I am UNHAPPY I've had to spend this much time and UNHAPPY I am Prevented from using my faithful CraigsList when I need it !!! --Sunny

Verified ReviewerCraigslist is becoming the new Backpage
I was calling to let you guys know that Craigslist has officially become Back page the fact that you all don't have anybody monitoring this site like you used to back in the day is getting way out of hand because it is a lot of women on here selling themselves I've been flagging the ads and everything only to see them back up in a couple of hrs and I pay just like everyone else does, but I'm a legit massage therapist I'm selling myself if you all need somebody to keep an eye on this site let me know because I'm getting by the wrong callers calling me all because y'all are dicking around and not doing your job.

Verified ReviewerCraigslist is Negligent
Craigslist is a corrupt entity IMO. They are a platform that condones, enables, and empowers fraudsters. When notified of this activity, the company does nothing.
Craigslist allows con artists to post ads. I hired a contractor from Craigslist and was injured and ripped off due to his unethical behavior and negligence.
I have let Craigslist know and asked them to investigate and prevent this individual from placing ads, but I am ignored. I flag the ads to protect others, and Craigslist allows him to repost.
Craigslist is not a safe platform and has no safeguards to protect consumers. It's buyer beware, and it's too easy for scam artists to harm people.
- Selection
- Not safe for consumers
Preferred solution: Full refund
User's recommendation: Avoid Craigslist - They Support Scam Artists
Threats
Just waiting
Threatened by someone and you conveniently have nobody available, and your link on legal return message not sent. Is Craigslist even up and running?
Cause I know you charged me 5.00 for my ad. I expect you to find that person before it gets any further.
Your relay system is kind of flawed.

Verified Reviewer |I keep getting flagged every time I put my post on. I need to find out what’s going on.
The flagging I believe is not fair. No one should get flagged like that; people do it on purpose to sell their puppies.
I've been flagged every time I put my baby on for the last two days.
Someone I believe is doing that on purpose. I need to be able to have her home too.
- Everybody have a chance
- There are some people that are scammers
Preferred solution: I just want to be able to sell my puppies like everybody else
User's recommendation: Everybody needs a chance and needs to be fair

Verified ReviewerRude and Unethical Lawyer
Me and my wife hired this lawyer Richard S. Joseph Jr.
off Craigslist. Worst decision we ever made. He had a bad temper especially to the other side, and all that argueing just made it take longer and cost more. He dint really help just kinda made all these promises and did the bare minumum.
We just wanted him to explain like why his bill said he worked 40 50 hours when it looked like 2 3 hours and he would say he had to research then we ask well you said you were an expert so why do you need to research .
and he would lose his temper and say if you dont like my bills get another lawyer
We should have known better he had no office no Linkdin no website just that Craigslist ad but we went ahead anyway and it ended up wasting our time and money. later on he started getting worse snappy and short with us felt like we could not even talk to him.
An expert in 'ethics and legal malpracticehow convenient, considering how effortlessly he flip that expertise on his own clients.
We called the state bar and found out he had been reported before and one complaint had a year and a half invesgation that told us all we needed.
the bar told us we did not have to pay any bill our lawyer refuse to explain, and they would help but we had to file a complaint. we just paid it to be done with the whole thing and another lawyer got it all taken care of in a couple of days.
