Sorry you're having problems. This is typical of an all-too common occurrence with Craigslist.

Craigslist states:

Postings may be removed or omitted from index pages and search results by automated systems, craigslist staff, or community moderation, for reasons including failure to comply with terms of use, posting guidelines, and/or community norms.

For more details, see the full Craigslist page.
