   Maybe you're advertising 'free for pick-up' in the wrong places.   
      
   Never had that problem with TVs or microwave ovens with a free   
   listing on Kijiji, but my location is central in a major   
   metropolitan area with educational and imigrant populations.   
      
   This despite low cost availability from Goodwill, Sally Anne   
   Thrift Stores or Value Village outlets. These are also good   
   places to drop off unwanted, but working, consumer products.
