  • Crude1970 Eric (@Crude1970) reported

    @catturd2 Jesus. God. That's blatantly obvious. They really need to pay these craigslist actors more or give them better training down at FBI HQ. Just a tip to the Feds: when you're pretending to be in a confrontation, you also have to pretend to be agitated.

  • 0xMatt 💉💉🎉 One Matt among many (@0xMatt) reported

    @munin I think one of the potential problems there, though, is that _small_ businesses can't afford to be hit with multiple lawsuits, while large ones can just absorb it as a cost of business. e.g, you could crush Craigslist much easier than eBay.

  • ramisright ராம் राम Ram (@ramisright) reported

    @GunduHuDuGa Now that you said this, I remember facing similar problem in US trying to sell my old car on Craigslist . Again an army guy wanted bank ac details. He was remote and said he can't come and see the car. I told him I am not interested. Look like frauds use army name all the time.

  • parthi_logan parthi loganathan (@parthi_logan) reported

    Facebook Marketplace is eating away at Craigslist. CL traffic is down 20% in the last 3 months. Anecdotally, I put a bike up for sale and got 36 offers on FB but only one on CL.

  • EShen42 Egg Shen (@EShen42) reported

    @Fun11319352 Marketplace, in my experience. If you're giving stuff away, especially scrap metal, put it out in front, and post a craigslist ad w/pic in Free Stuff saying "don't contact me, I'll take the ad down when it's gone." and try to be conscientious about taking it down promptly.

  • BinghamLofts Bingham Lofts (@BinghamLofts) reported

    People on Craigslist “donating” a 20-feet Christmas tree; so, you need a large tree cut down and removed for free.

  • jw5458 John Walker (@jw5458) reported

    @DailyCaller Let’s login to EBay, Craigslist, etc. and see what these items are reselling for.

  • hippiehay6 HazyHay6 (@hippiehay6) reported

    @ffflexup @sohappy28833563 Oh trust me I don't want the latest and greatest but I'm fine with POS cars from Craigslist or Facebook market. That is exactly my plan I'm looking at a car for $6000. Put about 3000 down. Will be a low payment plan per bemonth

    @AVeryBadDevil could get replacement parts from broken laptops off craiglist -or- just buy a broken laptop for your cat to abuse. in fact have it pick it out for you, if possible

  • tayredacted Tay *redacted* (@tayredacted) reported

    Found a 55 inch TV on Craigslist for only $20 because the volume was stuck on full. I thought to myself, "I can't turn that down."

  • arghgr b the angry rabbit (@arghgr) reported

    pro craigslist tip: when i reply to posts that contain accidental photos of a dog or cat near the item, i usually add "also down for pet pics" with my offer so i have a 50/50 chance of getting more pet pics even if the item is already taken

  • martin_gerber gerber the imperfect ⏳🌕👀 (@martin_gerber) reported

    ... after practicing a bunch I was feeling like I could pull it off without re-injuring my hand so I went out to a **** shop and bought a bass guitar... I drove down to the craigslist gig hoping that everything was legit and thankfully it was more legit than I had anticipated...

  • nycphonebuyer Feldon Richards (@nycphonebuyer) reported

    @AJGDesigns23 My bad, I just saw this. I buy broken phones, fix them, then resell them. I've been doing this for four years. When I got started, I was buying phones off craigslist, and selling them on ebay. Now I have an international customer base.

  • ksvfarm Kendell Vorthmann (@ksvfarm) reported

    @mrsfarmerjones There's a gentleman that has a Drago listed for sale on craigslist down in your area that should fit your combine if he's willing to rent it.???

  • MichelleAKline DrLooksLikeAProfKline (@MichelleAKline) reported

    @KYT_ThatsME @coereba I didn't have the time or energy to track things down on Facebook or deal with craiglist to find used ones so I went with the cheaper ones, a handful of all in ones when they were on sale, and eventually bought a couple more of the specific ones that worked best for us.

  • spdsk8trgrl Leslie “C8H11N02” (@spdsk8trgrl) reported

    @option2ghost Only if they are pretty new/high end. eBay was the bomb for buying and selling parts in the 90’s. I can’t find **** now, it’s a giant mess. Maybe just sell as broken or try local on Craigslist or something.
