To respond:

Just follow the directions in the post. There may be a "Reply to:" link near the top. If so, you may use that. Otherwise, look for an email address or phone number in the body of the post. (Or occasionally there may be only a Web address, which you must follow to see where to reply.)

To write a post:

Posting is straightforward. You just find the prominent "post to classifieds" link (it's at the upper-left corner of the main page), drill down to the appropriate category, and fill out the simple form.

The first page to which you're directed when posting will invite you to create an account. You don't really need an account, but it'll take only a minute or so to set up, and can make things a lot easier. So do get that account.

Required fields. In general, the only required posting fields are Title and Description. If you omit Price, for example, users will simply see no reference to price on your post, unless you include price information in the body text.
