    Well marketplace basically killed Craig’s list, so that’s one reason.

      This one irks me. I grabbed an Auto-Trader paper today as I was reminiscing about how local trader-papers used to be a thing. I got my NES and Saxophone that way. I still have one of those. -Then craigslist ended that and now that has been replaced by a website that requires membership to read the listings.

        Yep, I feel ya. It’s so unfortunate that the required membership is what provides the benefits that allowed them to beat Craigslist.
