I'm aware one can put one's phone number in the ad that way, but for myself, I don't want my phone number in a craigslist ad in any form. I prefer to screen interested prospects first via email before deciding whether to give my phone number. Personally, I don't want my phone ringing all the time, so am restrictive about giving my number out.

To each his own, everyone does things a little bit differently.

Can't say I blame you.

FWIW, one does have the option of using Google Voice and establishing a dedicated phone number just for use on Craiglist or other more public/online venues where you don't want to advertise your personal cell number. Totally free. You can receive or place calls using your GV number using your primary cell phone (requires the GV app). GV will also accept texts and voice mails (also translates VM'S to text). Bottom line, you're isolated. If things do get out of hand for any reason, I believe it only costs 10 to establish another GV number. I've been using GV for many years---works great!

I set up a junk email account to use for things like craigslist so if it got to crazy with the spam I could just dump the account and create a new one. I am surprised that I have been using that account for many years and other then a few junk mails a week I have not had a problem.

You can put your phone number in digits and letters and avoid a lot of problems, such as 5five51two1two.

I thought it would be good for hunting season.

Most hunters I know buy old cheap trailers for deer camp. Agree with others about wrong time of year.

I would advertise in warm areas where it could be used more. If the price is right people will drive a ways to purchase.

I buy and sell a lot of stuff on Craigs and from my experience if you don't have email, phone and text avail on the listing your losing a lot of potential buyers.

I run into adds all the time that I can't get a hold of the seller since they don't check there email or email gets lost in spam. Some folks don't have good cell service and some don't have voice mail set up. Some don't have text avail on their phone or don't know how to use it.

Sometimes I eventually get a hold of someone. Just last month I bought an item that only had email listed. It took them over a month to discover that my email ended up in Spam, when they finally replied I ended up buying the item at a reduced price since the the item had been for sale for so long with no offers. Last week I had a reply from the seller of an item go to my spam twice and did not see it until I had purchased another like item from someone else.

I have not had all that many scams or issues with craigs in Arizona or Colorado. I get the occasional scam and a few stupid questions but often the stupid questions end up being a buyer after I politely answer their question.

I am just sharing what I have learned selling and buying a lot of items, hopefully it helps. One other note NADA for RV's is almost worthless. I have seen a few trailers sell for significantly more and most a whole lot less in my case repeatedly 10K less than NADA.

I'm the opposite. I won't bother with an ad if there is no number.

I never put a phone number in a Craigslist ad. I always state that if they are interested send me their phone number and I will call them. Works well for me.
