Craigslist doesn't even charge for rental listings, do they? I thought they only charge for help wanted ads.

Interesting. I wonder why they feel it is not necessary or not profitable to do it in the Bay Area.

They now charge to list your car, even as a private party. I'm not sure it was the right choice because it drove so much traffic to Facebook Marketplace, which is an absolute disaster.
