I don't get it.

When I click on the topmost archived ad (https://clippings-archive.june07.com/craigslist/7675980380) I get a 404.

Others work, but what is the value of a deleted ad?

No 404 anymore by the way, again, it was an issue with the Github deployment pipeline.

if your really shadey you pick an posting/ad thats getting moby-like traction, archive it and as soon as the real deal is deleted, you spoof the post, and redirect, to ride its momentum, to influence your site visits.
