    Just a vent here but since I have been looking for a car I've been using alot of car classifieds and one being craigslist. I was searching at a local level but now I've expanded my search to other surrounding cities and I was using a search tool called Crazedlist.org to search several cities at one time. Well, now craigslist has cracked down on it as well as several other search sites like this. I just dont understand why craigslist doesnt do a search that searches all cities but then gets pissed off at websites that code a search tool to do it. Makes me angry!!! **** craigslist!!

    Crazedlist.org , Check it out! They used to have a "search all" option that was great. I used to find alot of great car deals in many different cities.

    :) Im done, Thank you...

    craigslist has some kind of hardon for being a "local" site. they can do whatever they want, imo, since they don't charge for their services, with very few exceptions. Very powerful tool if you need short-term labor or you want to sell something quick, garage sale style.

    Yeah, every piece of furniture we've posted on there - good or bad - has been gone in ~2 days. Usually there are calls within hours. Heaven forbid you *give* something away, your Hotmail box will be full.

    No kidding - I recently had an abandoned rent house where the tenants left a 2000 gallon above ground pool. It was pretty nasty. Instead of paying someone to drain, dissassemble, and haul it off, I put it on the "free" section of craigslist. 3 calls in 5 minutes and it was drained and gone in less than 12 hours.
