Sorry for your problems.

Craigslist states:

Posts may be removed or omitted from index pages and search results by automated systems, CL staff, or community moderation -- for non-compliance with terms of use, site guidelines, and/or community norms.

It's not possible from the information you've provided to say why your post was deleted. And it might not be possible under any circumstances; Craigslist's determinations often seem arbitrary.

You may be able to solve the issue with the use of a Web proxy, as offered free at http://www.zend2.com/. Fellow Help Owl volunteer smcclurken has additional suggestions here.

I suggest you just create a new account!

The only people that can access it are you, and craigslist staff. It doesn't generate any emails or anything, it just...sits there. Walk off and ignore it. If you decide to sell a couch in eight years, log back in. In the meantime, it doesn't do a thing. No live ads means the account is essentially dead and inactive. You will get no emails or anything from craigslist, it just goes dormant until you use it again.

Please respond to my effort to provide you with the best possible solution by using the "Acceptable Solution" and/or the "Helpful" buttons when the answer has proven to be helpful. Please feel free to submit further info for your question, if a solution was not provided. I appreciate the opportunity to serve you!
