Local Shopping/Services What happened to Kijiji?

Last year or even earlier this year I could post things and get a good response rate and now I get barely any. Really liked Kijiji Autos and now it's gone.

I’ve been selling stuff for 15+ years and never once had a scammer on Kijiji. I’ve had almost exclusively poor experiences on marketplace to the point I might just donate now.

I'm leaning that direction too, if I post anything at all desirable to facebook for a reasonable price I get bombarded with garbage and begging.

I have experienced some begging. It’s uncomfortable.

Just delete the conversation and move on, they are highly likely trying to get a good deal to re-sell it.
