I'd like to share a site just like Craigslist but for Bitcoins and Litecoins etc.  It's called Cryptslist.com  .  It's new but, new is GOOD!
Got a bunch of shit laying around?  Might as well see if you can get bitcoins for it right?

As I recall, it didn't allow editing/deletion?

Are people still interested in this?  I still have the code, but failed to renew the domain and maintain the website because the usage was dismal.

I'd consider working on the project again if there were ample interest.

Not for hire.
Yeah I was excited there for a whole half second until the dead link ruined the romance.

Murray needs to add the ability to edit/delete your posts  Grin

It seems like most merchants just opt to use this here forum for posting their goods on the market.  This bulletin board software seems far from the ideal platform for buying/selling/etc, but it is an established place for doing so...

What do people think about the possibility of aggregating the posts here on another site, like Murray's List, that would provide better "eCommerce" features on top of the listings -- such as searching by category/tag, price, etc?

I'd consider doing that if it gets to a point where it's tough to wade through what is available.  In the meantime, there's a simple tagging mechanism, in addition to search functionality.  But, perhaps I should provide a way to view all of the tags for which goods/services are presently listed...

Nice. Do you have the ability to break it down by area and additional categories - in other words, can you make it look and act like Craigslist? That might make it even more marketable - not sure though. Great idea!

I realize there are already several classifieds-style sites for Bitcoin out there, but being I had already created such a CL-like site -- originally for listing prices in gold and silver -- I thought it worth extending to add support for listing prices in bitcoins.  Plus, most of the other sites listed on the "Trade" wiki page seem a bit cruddy (IMHO).

Here it is: http://www.murrayslist.com/

If I see ample interest in this, I would love to put in the time to make it one of the better places for doing Bitcoin-based exchanges.  Feedback welcome.
