Well-- here in Denver that Singer got knocked off #1 relevance (Sold?)
and now #1 is this
http://denver.craigslist.org/ele/4159526726.html
Which is cross posted in 3 categories in violation of CL policy
Note that it, too, features wordy cut and paste verbiage

#1 relevant here for keyword "sewing": http://dayton.craigslist.org/art/4143780080.html

#2 is this, with no picture: http://dayton.craigslist.org/for/4100940629.html

So far - in our world - "relevance" is "irrelevance"

Lew, you are so irreverent...

I'll still try to sell on CL but I will rethink a couple ads and see what sells.

It seems that only new plastic wonders are relevant.

There was a 301 on top for a couple weeks here - ad was copied off a web site - I wonder if I copy the same if mine will come up first?

(It does seem reminiscent of something I saw recently on eBay)

I always figure listings that long ago to be non-relevant and long over. But, it is easy enough to change to what I want. I can see it is a pain to have CL choose what they assume you want (or what they want you to want.) BTW - I really like the two spools in the first posting!

Yep - just went to eBay - I was right, I guess he tried eBay first:

I think the old date just means that the seller has renewed the ad a few times because it didn't sell. That could indicate that it's overpriced, not that it's necessarily irrelevant. I saw a nice 201 in your area!

The bums. I like blonde wood but that style of cabinet is better with dark wood. You don't often see it in the light wood, though.
