Craigslist is an online marketplace which now spans the globe with sites focused not only on 70 individual countries but on 700 individual cities.

How easy is it to sell your goods on the site? Is there a fee for this service? Are there limits? We grade the trade..
The great Craig

These guys are quick.  Sellers fill out a simple posting form which once confirmed by the vendor, can be on the site within 15 minutes. No fees, no fuss, just instant exposure to your classified ad.

It has its limitations.  Classifieds are only live for 7 days and then need reposting. You are also only allowed to post in one area, which should be local to you where at all possible.

The other common complaint about Craigslist is the amount of spam and dodgy adverts that appear, particularly in the personals.

What types of products can I buy and sell on this site? Or what can't I buy and sell on this site? We know the deal..

Craigslist is a bit ‘pot luck’; you can’t depend on it to have the quantity of products on offer that online store and shops are able to provide.  However, compared to other
marketplaces, they do tend to have a little of everything, albeit not with a wide range of choices of individual products. Overall it is one of those sites that is definitely worth checking out but which you wouldn’t rely on as your only source.

Very important for marketplaces - how well organized are the product or service categories? Is it easy to find what you are looking for? Or is this a maze?.

This e-commerce site has a rich list of categories although they are quite broad.

Navigation is very simple but you can find what you are looking for. However, more sub categories for products categories would be welcome.

Quality of the information. Here we look at the quality of the product descriptions, design and images on the website. Does the content give you a good idea of how the product looks and feels?.

Adverts are classified and therefore brief in their nature.

There are photos on many adverts but the product specifications are sometimes lacking in depth and many potential buyers are likely to have further questions for vendors before they can establish the suitability of what’s on offer.
