    @kaypeanuts @NYCTSubway Hi Karol, sorry to track you down this way, this is the guy w/ the Arlo Parks ticket from Craigslist. I think the system is eating my messages (since you replied twice). Still got the ticket if you want. If not, understand, just don't want you to miss out

  • yjeongyeons Hugh Jazz (@yjeongyeons) reported

    i love looking for bands on craigslist bc i will be like "oh this one is perfect" and then not contact them and be disappointed when it gets taken down

  • daarfield daarfield (@daarfield) reported

    @redacted_j @metaplex you’re saying that it’s all tied together in one layer so it can’t be broken into just the stuff people care about when using a front end? can it not just be like craigslist or something super bare bones with a link to the “buy” button back end?

  • daily_quotebot Daily Quotes (@daily_quotebot) reported

    Trends in circulation and advertising - the rise of the Internet, which has made the daily newspaper look slow and unresponsive; the advent of Craigslist, which is wiping out classified advertising-have created a palpable sense of doom. - Eric Alterman #inspirational

  • emiliorojas Emilio Rojas (@emiliorojas) reported

    I don’t get why people air people out on the internet. I have plenty of issues with people who have crossed me. The mature thing to do is take out ads on Craigslist saying they’re giving away a free jet ski because they are moving and then post their number and email in the ad

  • James_Stiehl Clawhammer Ebanjolist (@James_Stiehl) reported

    I keep seeing an ad on Craigslist for a John Prine cover band looking for musicians and I REALLY want to join. Only problem is I don’t know how to play any John Prine songs. And I don’t know how to be in a band. #MandBands

    @Thorman_Lungie @prreinke @homemadeguitars USA Today funded the Gannett acquisitions. Sure Craigslist hurt newspapers but they all could have done free online classifieds for subscribers. Problem was, guys like Neuharth didn’t care about local. And papers ceased to be relevant.

    It may be sensible to buy what you need now if you can. I don't see inflation slowing down anytime soon. Also, Craigslist and **** shops can have great deals on power tools. I hate to take advantage of another's misfortune, but desperation drives prices way down.

    Imagine going to college for business? Like bruh, just use Craigslist. Problem solved?

    It may be sensible to buy what you need now if you can. I don't see inflation slowing anytime soon. Also, Craigslist and paen shops can have great deals on nicer power tools. I hate to take advantage of another's misfortune, but desperation drives prices way down.

    I've the most absolute trash roommate for the past 6 months, and she just announced she pregs and wants to move out. SO, posted a craigslist, and literally old roomie hit me up day after saying to take it down, I'm moving back in... So there is a god, after all.

  • esthers_doll juul of wilson’s fowl domain (@esthers_doll) reported

    @ohnnnnnnnnnnnno that’s a huge lead!! my mom’s house got robbed and she found the guy selling our laptop on craigslist... but yeah the cops are slow as **** (:

  • jrobertson50 James Robertson (@jrobertson50) reported

    @Cat_MarqueeLV OfferUp is pretty easy I've bought and sold on there with no problems. eBay it's been a long time since I've used because offer up I think is better. And then if you want to risk your life there's always craigslist.

  • gameOFshane PissedBurgh (@gameOFshane) reported

    @TallBlondeGuy @Dejan_Kovacevic I never have problems finding tickets, but you have to be savvy. Lots of scammers on Craigslist and if you’re not smart you can lose a lot of money.

  • CryptoLain CryptoLain -Team Doge- (@CryptoLain) reported

    @NekozTek @SalsaTekila Mid 80's 4130 or ideally Reynolds 531 Japanese lugged weld triple butted frame. No point in throwing down a ton of money on a fragile carbon frame when you can get one of the best bikes ever made for $275 to $375 on Craigslist.

  • Dynemanti Dynemanti (@Dynemanti) reported

    @Hotsammysliz Go back 10 years and have kids. Problem solved. That or sell it on craigslist.

  • ngsaminat Saminat 🆖 (@ngsaminat) reported

    @OkiDokiOkeoi I'm beginning to see the problem, have you considered looking on craigslist or facebook marketplace? I've gotten several dope pieces of furniture for cheap that way

  • randall_kznr Randall (@randall_kznr) reported

    @donutgrind @mangwhale when i was unemployed and going through a lot my mom made a craigslist ad without my knowledge saying that i would fix PCs and then some guy just showed up at my house one day saying he was here to have his laptop fixed

  • ElliotTheBunny Elliot 'Leaky Burrito' Bunny (@ElliotTheBunny) reported

    Every Craigslist ad: "I'm selling this because of 30 other completely unrelated events in my life. I shall list them all now. 1) car trouble 2) lost job 3) health reasons 4) just had surgery 5) no time 6) I have 23 kids 7) too much house work 8) too many projects 9)..."

  • Pokenar [] (@Pokenar) reported

    @NejiraeRR @baovtuber Despite it being a *terrible* idea to rehome your cat on the site, its apparently common enough when I adopted my two sons last year we were explicitly told "If you are unable to take care of them for any reason, please do NOT put them on craigslist"

  • ole_kevin16 Ole (@ole_kevin16) reported

    So this was a clear sign the Vikings are cursed. This entire week I'll be looking for a witch doctor on craigslist to solve this problem. Wish me luck 🤞

  • Crunch_Bunch66 Crunch Bunch (@Crunch_Bunch66) reported

    @Legion_of_Zoom1 @BrettKollmann Trust me, any idiot can go on Craigslist and get a rig for $100, then play for a week, get 3 or 4 other idiots on a stage and call it music. You'd be surprised actually. There's a reason that not just an ******* with Google is breaking down sports.

    @JeffreyHoppe @joebrusuelas @Uber I remember rideshare before Uber Put an ad on Craigslist If anybody’s going to Woodstock I’ll pay the gas Never was a business Cabs were Cabs had local people to set price knowing issues in the specific city Uber is McDonald’s
