Is there a way to search all of craigslist.com? Instead, that is, of only "Los Angeles" or "New York?"

Wouldn't it be nice to be able to see ALL the adamii on sale throughout the entire list?

Thanks, guys! And, apologies for being so ignorant!

Or you can google search term(s) site:craigslist.org

for example, "adamas site:craigslist.org" without quotes in the google search field will return all craigslist ads that have the word Adamas somewhere in them. To get more specific put multiple search terms in quotes, or precede each keyword with the plus sign.

But craigshelper is more useful if you want to confine the search to a specific area.

Serge, I used to use the Google approach, but it returns a lot of expired listings. Got too frustrating.

You're right, John. I use craigshelper more often than not for that reason, but every once in awhile the google thing turns up something that doesn't show up with craigshelper. PITA to sift through all those expired listings, but you might get lucky if you're willing to spend the time.
