That is so cool!

[malinghi]

Just curious, why did you post it on Kijiji and not ebay?

Also, the address on that page your home address? If it is, that seems a little risky considering all the would-be stalkers you have.

[AniaR]

im selling it locally, but if someone here wants it I'll mail it. It's not my address, you gotta pick a map point

[malinghi]

Oh, okay. By the way, not to get preachy but just be aware that kijiji is a little evil.

[AniaR]

well, I used it to sell my old camera and I sold it and had the buyer come pay in less than 2 hours from posting it, I also book a LOT of mermaid gigs through it, so it's been pretty good to me

What is kijiji?

Kijiji is a free classifieds website, similar to craigslist. Its owned by ebay, which openly dislikes craiglist because craiglist is free. They'd love to eliminate craigslist. Kijiji was made as a rival to craigslist in the hopes of replacing craigslist and then charging money for classified ads once craigslist was out of the way.

Ebay also bought a bunch of shares of craigslist. It wasn't enough to get majority control, but then they sued craigslist for not making money, because as shareholders they felt entitled to the website making as much money as possible, and they felt the fact that craigslist makes less money than they could to be criminal.

Admittedly I might have my facts wrong, so feel free to let me know if this is correct. This is what I heard.

Huh, depending on the costs it might be worth while to take a look at Kijiji. That reminds me though I need to put something up on craigslist....

[AniaR]

kijiji has always been free for me?

I am a size 9 shoe!

[malinghi]

kijiji has always been free for me?

Yeah, its always been free. Kijiji has always been free because its sole purpose is to compete with craigslist because craigslist is altruistic, and ebay perceives it to be a threat.
