I believe it varies from city to city and category to category. It's free as long as usage is light and abuse is minimal. Fees for cars and job listings and so forth start and go up proportionally as that changes.
Put it up on Offerup. Everything is on smart phones now anyway. craigslist is so passe. Likely that's why they start charging, to compensate for low volumes.

So they can run it for free at high volume but have to charge for low volume... got it.

I don't think so, the way I read it starting 4/15 everyone will have to pay $5 to list a car. This should get rid of a lot of scam postings, but at the same time it's sad to see this change.

Okay. I've used it in different cities and the fee categories have varied.

I totally applaud this decision. It'll keep the spam way down. Craigslist has gotten run over by spammer/scammer wanna-bes.
