Stupid? Really?
I always do... over 10 years now and zero issues. However, I do get a ton of spam which is why I only use an address specifically for online ads.
I also note that most ads without a number are scammers. Which is why I e-mail asking for valid contact information. It seems that, almost without fail, it's generally a scam.
You know, if you think it's so stupid you can always use a GV#... but hey, we all have to be paranoid about something silly, right?

Putting your number in makes it absolutely no less a scam. Sorry. I have sold TONS of things on there too over the years and have never once included my number.

to each their own. I just don't think I'm stupid for including my number and I often ignore ads with no contact info. If I think it might not be I e-mail them.
Most of the time I'm proven correct.

Not meaning to call you stupid directly. Just saying I don't think it is a good idea. Just like I would never have someone from CL come pick up or look at things at my house. I don't trust CL people.

I just e-mailed an ad with no number and this is the response I received...
Hello,
The car it's still available, has 23,317 miles, manual transmission. It's in perfect condition, no engine problems (4 Cylinder Gasoline), no accidents/liens/loans. Exterior no scratches, never been repainted, interior no rips/tears/stains, never smoked inside. I have all the car's manuals, 2 spare of keys, clean title, documents. This 2002 Subaru WRX wrx turbo was my son's car, he loved it very much, but he didn't enjoy it...He died in a bike accident 9 months ago and now...I don't need it anymore. It brings very bad memories to me and I want to get rid of it....The price is $3,900.00
Me and my husband travel a lot with our business and we want to make this deal through eBay's Vehicle Purchase Protection Program. I just need your full name, full shipping address, along with your home/cell # so I can open a case (with no further obligation or fees). eBay will contact you with all the Transaction/shipping details you will need.
We hope to hear soon from you.
