Searching craigslist

[mjw930]

I'm sure some of you have ways of doing global searches on craigslist but I found a site and a way that seems to work well.

First, the site I found is http://www.crazedlist.org/ and it lets you do direct searches but because of the way craigslist works you really can't search all the sites without raising alarms. To get around that you can create an RSS OPML file that you can read into your favorite RSS reader. I put a feed into Thunderbird using an add-on called Formzilla and now I have a folder that updates every evening for any for sale post in the US with the word Donzi.

I've attached the OPML file for those who don't want to be bothered. Just copy it locally and remove the .txt extension.

If you have other ways then post them up. I've avoided craigslist up until recently so I'm a noob there.

crazedlist works well if you don't use it that much... if you do craigslist blocks you all together.

The best way I've found is using the google site search "Donzi site:craigslist.org" would search all of craigslist for the word Donzi. I usually add in "FL" or "Florida" to limit it to my state as best as possible.

This also works across craigslist, and some ebay items.
