Even if they put in their postal code, the site would then have to pull from a database of postal codes.

Craigslist does this in a similar way to the way we have done it.... and I never really understood why.  Anyone know?

I just figured, if we get a request to add a city, we will add it lol.

San Diego, CA it is!

We just have advertisements for now.  Once I get the callbacks working for our bitcoin payment system through coinbase, I'll open it up for premium extras such as featured ads, extended ad time, etc.

Hey everyone, I've been following the whole bitcoin classified ads thing for a while now and really haven't been that impressed by any of them.  Most seemed to be very similar looking to Craigs List and other minimalist classified ad sites.

So we have created bitofclassified.com

A few warnings:

1.  There may be some minor glitches as it's still a work in progress, but I think it's a step in the right direction for bitcoin.  Bitcoin classified ads should not be bland and dull.  They should be as lively as eBay is, but without all the fees.

2.  Unlike eBay, but like most classified ads sites, there are no buyer or seller guarantees and no middle man/escrow account.  We recommend only face to face transactions to avoid scams.

And a few requests:

1.  We would love to roll the site out into other cities.  Right now I just have our hometown of Louisville, KY and some of the surrounding areas listed.  Please let me know on here or on our "Contact Us" form which cities you would like us to ad.

2.  We are also in the process of adding categories, so please let us know of any specific categories you would like us to ad.

Thanks again for your time and we welcome any feedback!

PS - I also run the Facebook group "The Kentucky Bitcoin Marketplace" - so if you are a business located in Kentucky that accepts bitcoin, please come by and post there to let us know!
