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.

No amount of flagging or complaining to help desk is going to fix kijiji. Their ads are not cheap...

See my ad which contains the word, stairlift. Then see my second screen grab with a kijiji search...
