You don't need an account to use Craig's list.That section looks like a information gathering tool for them. List what you have within a town or county or two, from where you live. Nobody's gonna travel across the country to buy your chair. Take a few good pics of what you want to sell. Don't take them at night in the dark, in your garage. List how you want to be contacted. Putting "do not text"before and after your phone number usually means nothing to people and they will text you anyway.If your item is worth $100, ask $150.Everyone will try to beat you down in price. If you haven't sold your item in a month, drop the price a few $$$.Your ad will run for 2 days, and after that you can renew it for another 2 days, you can do that for 45 days if it doesn't sell. You can edit your post at anytime by going back to the email they first sent you. I wouldn't trust buying anything from someone that wants to meet me in a parking lot.I sell things cash and carry. No checks or money orders. If you get ridicules promises of paying you more then your asking, it's a scam. Scammers have a hard time stopping, so their number pops up alot. You can sometime google their phone number and read posts about their attempted scams.,,
