Just realized why my Craigslist ad was getting zero replies for 3 weeks

I listed a patio set for $200 and it just sat there. I figured it was the price or the photos, but I was wrong. Turns out I had it listed under the wrong category the whole time, some 'miscellaneous' section nobody checks. Moved it to furniture and got three calls in two days. Has anyone else had a listing fail just because of a dumb category mistake like that?

Olivia that free stuff story is hilarious and terrifying - I can just imagine the angry texts rolling in." I'm honestly surprised I didn't manage to list my TV under "antiques" by mistake.

ha that would be amazing though, imagine someone showing up for your tv thinking it was a vintage armoire or something. bet they'd be so confused standing there with a dolly.

Had a friend who listed a car under "free stuff" by accident and got nothing but angry texts for days.
