Why is craigslist so popular?

Everytime I message someone about a car, its a scammer. Telling me about his military buisness or something of that nature, so why is this website so popular? It is just a giant scamfest.

  • Because you can sell your stuff for free.

    Granted, I've been there, and every ad generates a torrent of scams. You just have to be able to sort out the crap.

    Personally, I would still buy from a Craigslist seller but I'd be careful.

    I don't think I'd ever try to sell through them again though.

  • Its because they are the Facebook of Want Ads, Its more like a Social Network I wouldn't do business with If I we're you I don't trust these people.

  • It is, but if you're good at it you can sift through the scams.

    Maybe 10% is honest, and from that 10% you can get a lot of good deals
