Blocked Postings

I attempted to renew a posting and was told that I had too many postings from my email address. I deleted nearly all of them and I still cannot repost the one that is most important to me. How can I resolve this issue?

The link offered by the previous answer is useless: Craigslist, with its huge user base and tiny staff, cannot and does not provide personal assistance. It's true that Craigslist will block multiple simultaneous posts that are substantially similar, and this block will easily affect all those posts. The good news is that the block will usually be removed in about a week. What you need to do if that is your situation is make sure all those similar posts are deleted, and then after the appropriate interval repost one. The appropriate interval is at least 48 hours afterany of those postings. If you're still blocked, keep trying.

If you try to post something similar to an active post of yours on the site, you may get a blocked message. Removing the similar active post should help, unless it is less than 48 hours old. Click here to open a ticket for assistance.

Hope that is helpful.
