I tried for one hole day to cell my used phone on it, well I only tried to get the ad online. But everytime I got deleted or delayed. I didn't do anything wrong, just some pictures of my device and a basic description. After contacting several times the support I only got this useless Answer;

Upon review of your account, we've made the decision that we are not the appropriate advertising platform for you personally or your business. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation and thank you in advance for respecting our decision.

Best of luck and have a great day.

They leave the chat straight away without trying to explain why they choose so. Bunch of r*tards

This platform has gone to garbage - seriously. I saw someone complain about seniors here who get annoyed at lowballers - its not just seniors, that is very ignorant. People used to lowball a bit, but now most people just come out of the gate with "how low will you go" - as if I am going to lowball myself. Every ad I post inevitably gets 1-3 people asking for it at half-price and use the excuse of "I'll buy it today if you can do this price" as if I am absolutely desperate and thirsty for a sale at any cost.

An other problem is that even a low-priced ad often doesn't net a lot of people like it used to, and I think people are moving away towards other solutions.

Yet an OTHER problem is that Kijiji has whored itself out so badly that any given page could have 6+ companies advertising their products before eventually you even see a normal ad posted by a person. Seriously, it is ridiculous how many advertisements and "listings" are posted by businesses to show off their stock at their stores to attract people.

The facebook marketplace and FB groups for local yardsale / listings net far mroe responses much more quickly.

Lastly, no matter what you do, Kijiji $#*!-$#*!s the image quality of any photos you upload, so good luck showing or viewing blemishes and details or model numbers in listings.

Avoid at all costs.

Is kijiji free advertisement or is it stuff for sale, I think I New section needs to be created for people posting for "auctions" I waist more than enough of my time answering people that have no more or didn't even want a product in the first place or from people not answering or just nicley letting me know that it's already sold they just didn't delete the add, I don't care to also read a hole add than at the bottom it says items are on auction... awesome for them to have free advertisement but it could be nicely done in its own catagory..

I wanted to help educate the public about news and buying and selling stock on the tsx, and everytime I posted an ad they would take it off. To me thats not free speech thats discrimination against the people of this country and I donot think its right, according to the gov. Of Canada people in this country we have the right of free speech and I think their company should be shut down and dealt with in the courts for violating the laws of Canada, Bruce.

I had a free ad that was not performing well but it was consistently visible in the lower section of the classified. I wanted this ad to be more visible so I paid $47 (PLUS Promotion) to get more visibility. The ad was still displaying very low in the classified first page and I wanted more visibility. So I purchased TOP AD for 3 days for $14.
At this point the ad completely disappears and was not seen for 3 days.

I checked for this ad every 1/5 for 3 days and it was not anywhere on the site. I also asked friends and family to check and they reported the same issue.

For some reason the ad did not display on the first page immediately after I paid for TOP ad. Tried to contact Kijiji and they offered no help. There is no way to call them or have a proper conversation.
