  $550 per week is peon wages but the backlash only comes from people who wanna be down but were never gonna be down in the first place. A REAL Personal Assistant already has a set fee they charge because they bring value. They’re not applying for no Craigslist assistant job

  @jogo_bonito00 @JPalmer98_ Fair but fewer on Zillow. The problem ones (scams/fake) congregate on Craigslist. The biggest one is obviously the credit check trolls. Really grim for low income renters.

  @crusadepepe Craigslist. Get something at least 20 years old. Whatever the problem is, you can fix it yourself.

  @PluginHyBrad @PiratesnPirelli @Walksalot503 literally anyone who’s ever bought a car off of somewhere like facebook marketplace or craigslist can tell you it’s a terrible idea unless you’re prepared to rebuild the entire thing

  @lithos_graphein My craigslist search history says I do not, but would like to. Store bulk solvents outside, under cover. Not ideal, but better than burning the house down lol.

  a recent desire of mine is getting a huge *** desk one would see in a cartoonishly evil ceo's office in kids movies. the issue is that these desks are wooden and big which means they are expensive as **** unless i go trawling through craigslist and luck out on a free one.

  @SecondAmendment @Fat_Electrician I kept running through dryers, used fancy **** on craigslist. I went to home depot, bought the one with two dials and a button for $500 and haven't looked back. Oddly enough the only thing that has broken is the one thing it has, a dial. I had to order a new plastic dial for $8.

  @a16z @aleximm @santiago__rdz Depends on bus model. SAAS is likely done. Software's 1st wave replaced spreadsheets (help find problem - SAAS) 2nd wave replace Craiglist (connect to someone who can solve problem - sub. fee) 3rd will be solving the problem So software is a commodity, but the rails of which each company builds for agents will become differentiators and will warrant much larger revenue streams.

  When I was 19 I moved to California with someone off Craigslist because the @lakers were down 0-3 to Dallas in the western conference finals and I was certain if I touched LA ground they would come back. (They didn’t)

  @swanlake322562 @DAKKADAKKA1 bought cars consoles furniture and tvs on craigslist no problem, just gotta use common sense if a price is too good to be true there's a reason..Also the structure of the ad is very telling. If the person can barely put together a proper sentence stay away

  @TheecomMike Most founders try to solve revenue with more traffic because traffic feels fixable. Meanwhile the real problem is the store converts like a Craigslist ad and the AOV is anorexic. Buying more clicks before fixing RPS is just paying extra to prove your leak is still there.

  Last time a newspaper classified ad was of use to me was in 2007, when an ad in a physical copy of the Tacoma Tribune got me a new apartment. After that, Craigslist online was the go to, especially in emergency situations. Too bad they had to shut down the horny part of the site.

  @washghost1 I had once bought a broken Samsung refrigerator for $ 300 on craigslist. The similar model still sells for little less than 2k. It pooled water under the freezer below, and the top refrigeration didn't work. I replaced the evap fan and patching some holes left by previous repair attempts, and removed the faulty drain valve insert by cutting out the valve itself with a utility knife. It has been working flawlessly for more than three years now. It seems Samsung still has a lot of room to improve on their long-term consumer testing.

  MEMPHIS MAN ARRESTED AFTER TRYING TO TRADE HIS WIFE FOR A USED BASS BOAT AND $400 (PLUS A LITTLE SOMETHING TO SWEETEN THE DEAL) MEMPHIS, TN — Because apparently Craigslist was down, a 54-year-old Memphis man wandered into Bass Pro Shops on Tuesday morning and attempted to negotiate what he confidently described as a “fair market trade”: his wife of 23 years… for a slightly questionable 14-foot aluminum fishing boat and $400 cash. Authorities say Ronnie Buckley-Jenkins approached the boat counter at exactly 11:14 a.m. (because of course he did), pointed at a boat priced at $4,200, and asked, “What would it take to walk outta here with that one?” When the associate gave him the price, Ronnie countered with a package deal that included: His wife, Denise $400 cash A bag of frozen catfish “to close the deal” Bold strategy. Shockingly, the employee did not immediately ring it up. Ronnie then stood at the counter for 41 minutes… just marinating in confidence. During that time, he presented a printed document titled “WIFE-FOR-BOAT TRANSFER AGREEMENT” (yes, in all caps, because professionalism). Highlights from the masterpiece include: A 14-day return policy (because customer satisfaction matters) A notarization by his cousin… who is absolutely not a notary A “best features” section listing “doesn’t snore” and “can clean a bass” An “as-is condition disclosure,” because we’re keeping things honest A checkbox marked “VERY GENTLY USED” (sir…) Meanwhile, Denise was sitting in the truck outside, completely unaware she had been bundled into a clearance deal next to a boat with a hole in the hull. The Bass Pro employee did what any reasonable human would do: pretended to “check with a manager” and immediately called the police. When deputies arrived, things only got better: Denise reportedly responded with a deeply philosophical, “He WHAT.” Ronnie insisted the trade was “fair market value” The boat… again… had a hole in it The employee was later offered a $50 gift card for surviving the interaction Denise has since filed for divorce, citing what legal experts are now calling “the boat thing.” When asked for comment, Ronnie stood by his decision, stating, “It came with a trolling motor.” Denise, however, offered a slightly different perspective: “I have a job. I have a HOME. I did not sign up to be traded like a dented canoe.” Somewhere in Memphis, a Bass Pro employee is still staring into the middle distance, wondering how their day went from selling fishing gear to rejecting a human barter system straight out of 1823...

  > attempt to sell an old bar car I've had sitting around on Craigslist > get a few offers, all fall through > "motivated buyer" contacts me wanting to buy immediately > red flags go off naturally > Talk to a "DaQuarius Xxxxx" via text and phone call > keeps wanting address > tell him a parking lot > "no worries! I'll come to you!" > tell him no and have a good day > yesterday find MY car I'm selling for sale on Facebook marketplace > they won't take his post down > look online to find out who to contact with the police > website says to go into the station and give an in person report > go to the police station > "sorry sir, you have to file these sort of reports online" > show the fat lady the police website saying to come in person for situations such as mine > her brain explodes and she gets flustered and tells me to fill out a completely unrelated online form and someone should get back to me within a few weeks I'm so ******* sick and tired of criminals AND police just doing whatever to **** they want while regular Joe 2-Tallboy gets their **** packed in then stolen by criminals then their moneyforcibly taken from the government under threat of force.

  @ModeledBehavior I stopped using FB Marketplace and went back to using Craigslist. I have had too many experiences with rude people on FB Marketplace, and that hasn't been an issue (mostly) on Craigslist.

  @jjohnpotter Did you put it on craigslist? List it for $20 and say, best deal in town, cost $xx,xxx new. People can't pass up a good deal. If it's free they think something is wrong, if they pay, it's a way to earn money. The Brain is broken this way.

  @0hour1 if craigslist allowed people to sell their animals, this would happen less often. laws are also part of the problem.

  @LibOrNormal I recommend this old woman go down to Houston, rent a room, and put an ad on craigslist saying, all u can handle, fee kitty. She can go home with souvenirs. In any case, don't take revenge advice from another woman, girls. Especially an old one

  @FreeMrktCptlst Went to Vegas in 2016 Got craigslist **** delivery - a $60 eighth of crisp sour. Busted it down in the room and rolled a 1 1/4 Zig Zag, no crutch and hit the strip and lit it up. Get back to my room and the whole room reeks. I get paranoid about a $150 smoking charge and flush the rest.

  @desert_starr_57 It's the same with Offerup, Letgo, and craigslist. Though despite the same issues, I did get decent results from Letgo up until Offerup bought them out and tanked the platform I stated right in my posts "Stupid Questions and lowball offers will be ignored and users blocked."

  @IRanMediaco “I found a guy on Craigslist who built my deck for a fraction of those other guys!” “But they didn’t get permits and the job has to be torn down and completely redone and you’re getting fined” “Damn…what a hormuz chalupa!”

  @andrewchen craigslist worked because newspapers were already dying from their own economics. AI replacing jobs is different than AI undercutting a broken business model that refused to adapt.
