Is craigslist finished as a place to sell cars?

I live in the Philadelphia market, and there used to be maybe 100 cars a day posted on craigslist for sale. Now there is hardly any every day maybe 25 or so. And what’s worse is nobody leaves their phone number and the last three cars I wanted to find out about the seller didn’t return an email.

$5 a listing. But once it expires you have to pay again.

Used to be only dealers had to pay $5. Now, private party sales pay $5 as well. Plus, you can't renew your ad after 48 hours without paying another $5. Too bad for private party vehicle sales on craigslist.

I still don't have a Facebook (or other social media) account after all these years. I just don't get the appeal of it. Must be the super-introvert in me.

I use FB marketplace almost entirely.

Kijiji still big in Canada though, I think.

In my social circle FB marketplace is becoming more and more popular. A really convenient way to choose a car, my opinion. I can't help recommending you another great service to help us get money after the car has been chosen :) It is Carplus. They provide huge assistance in getting a loan. Actually they compare and find the best car finance deal. There are no hidden fees or charges, no paperwork. It is an FCA approved broker.
