Synthoid Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 I know retail businesses can place ads on Craigslist for free, but one Pennsylvania business has gone over the top by posting over 12 acoustic pianos today, dropping all the other ads way down (or off) the first page. The music instrument category gets enough traffic as it is, especially with various double postings. I've never seen any business do this before.

Sven Golly Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 Top left corner -> "All"/"Owner"/"Dealer" -> Click "Owner", problem solved. Although I'm sure I'll hear why it's not actually solved soon enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Synthoid Posted September 17, 2019 Author Share Posted September 17, 2019 That doesn't work because this particular dealer isn't playing by the rules. Quote When an eel hits your eye like a big pizza pie, that's a Moray. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Real MC Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 And eBay is now inserting "sponsored auctions" in your search results. Between that and CL, I'm really getting SICK of this crap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mighty Motif Max Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 Not that unusual to see that on Minnesota Craigslist for some reason. Very annoying, especially when they are all "contact for price" or "best offer".

MikeT156 Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 pennswoods.net had the same problem. They changed their rules that only allows ONE FREE ad in any category. Apparently, if anyone tries to Post a 2nd ad in the same category, their system doesn't allow you to Post it. Mike T.

Song80s Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 CL is a site where rules are quite loose. Almost anything goes which includes ' annoying ' marketing techniques. Its a total " buyer beware' site. Not front page news, just in case CL ' sellers' surprise anyone Quote Why fit in, when you were born to stand out ?
