Craigslist is about as good of an "ad-free" marketplace as you can get, there are no sponsored posts, external advertisers, bad postings can be flagged for removal, etc.

I think we both know what "there are no ads" means...so why be so pedantic about it?

I'm just stating I don't see it as an "ad free" site which I understand to be like most of the other websites mentioned. I don't see me as being pedantic but OP playing fast and loose with definitions.

Let me help out by asking two questions

What are the problems with sites with lots of ads? Does Craiglist have any of those problems?
