What's the Deal With This One

Builderrhys · SARNIA, ONT

This one has shown up from two locations and two different prices, both quite low. What's the deal, is it legit?

No contact info forces you to leave a msg. If he doesn't reply, you have no way of knowing who is at the other end. Now he has a good email to sell or spam you to no end. Sucks! I'm always a little apprehensive replying to ads that have no contact info showing. Add in same picture/ different location? RED FLAGS ALL OVER THE FIELD!!!

When I advertise, I wont put my phone number...We only use cell now and I dont need the telemarketers to get it. I have them email me though Kijiji, that way they dont have my email until I email or phone them back.....if I feel they are serious

Poncho,

Unfortunately now when replying to an ad on KIJIJI, if you check the box to send yourself a copy of the reply.

You WILL see the other persons email address.

I noticed this last week when asking questions about some SBC parts. Not right but you do now see the other persons email address in that auto reply.

^^^ 58, I just tried with one of my Kijiji ads using a second email and could not see an address...just the Kijiji donotreply@kijiji.ca address

58 is right. If you send a copy to your own email, you will now see sellers email address. Its been about a week now.

I have a separate email strictly for kijiji only.

This is how I advertise. "Rustfree 1950 Studebaker ,bed,tailgate,fenders. Not the whole truck !!.Rustfree truck.The tailgate swings open. Will sell without tailgate. $3000.00 FIRM. Serious ,call.....London 519-438-8068. "

I figure the serious buyer will call. That said,if an ad has no contact info, I usually keep looking. Emailing back and forth and asking for a phone number ,not for me. Spam goes into 'junk' where it belongs....Just saying.Cheers.
