thanks. How do I compare? hmmm, good question. Aside from being completely irrelevant compared to them in size, I guess with craigslist you are anonymous and dealing with the other side which is also anonymous, but here that would not be allowed. Both parties are required to have some form of verification.

There is a trust system which encourages users to get more verified and to participate more in the community, which further builds trust. I'd like to continue to add trust cues, such as integration with trustcloud and other services eventually.

tl;dr: trust is important on Rentything and not so much on craigslist.
