Searching Craigslist

[mphatc]

I've been using Craigslist for years, to buy and sell, but was tired of having to go to all the sites and do individual searches, so a few years ago I figured out a way, and after seeing another thread here, thought that sharing the method here might help a few folks looking for weird stuff that's hard to locate . . .

Using Google . .

enter the item you're looking for, followed by a space , then enter the symbol + followed by craigslist, no space between the + and craigslsit

ex: Donzi 18 Classic +craigslist

if you're specifically looking for a Donzi 18 and don't want any other Donzi stuff to come up in the search put the specifics in quotes

"Donzi 18" +craigslist

There goes my secret, all the good Magnums 27s will be found and sold before I can save my pernnies . . :doh::bonk::garfield:

Good Luck!

Thanks for the tip. I knew there was a way to do that but I had forgotten.

BTW The Magnums are hiding elsewhere I guess. This (http://phoenix.craigslist.org/wvl/wan/815911507.html) is all I came up with. :smash: :nilly:

this also works...

from GOOGLE type

craigslist; magnum marine

The semi colon and space after craigslist; makes a big difference.
At the end of Magnum Marine you can add a place (like Miami)

But works best on Google search is:

Magnum 27 site:craigslist.org

. . . or if you just want Miami then:

Magnum 27 site:miami.craigslist.org
