Craigslist Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • RosesPaintedRed Paint the Roses Red Podcast (@RosesPaintedRed) reported

    @yesimahooker this sounds kind of like a grift a client of mine told me her **** would run. I never really understood and didn’t need to know what he was after. IIRC inevitably there was “a problem with the reservation” and “do you have an in call,” etc. This was back in the craigslist era tho

  • Reddragron08 Kevin Foy (@Reddragron08) reported

    @laurenboebert Isn’t your other job calling you! Craigslist! Sit down clown

  • Norah333Burke Norah Burke (@Norah333Burke) reported

    @carawil17888192 Craigslist is a source of this problem. They refuse to moderate this breeding and high ticket sales.

  • pasha2d Pasha (@pasha2d) reported

    @nickpunt I guess besides #craigslist and #ebuy everyone is using design tricks to improve content stickens (aka hook you up) the most not obvious one is #reddit with up/down votes!

  • ThreeBods Dad ***(s) ▪︎ Philly (@ThreeBods) reported

    In the Craigslist days, I encouraged a friend who was having problems paying rent to run an ad. She picked up a couple of very nice regular customers who more than covered her bills. She went on to a highly successful career in her main field & I'm so glad I suggested it.

  • ZaddyZi Z Minaj (@ZaddyZi) reported

    I literally am so down bad Imma bout to go on craigslist atp

  • BigSwede_44 BigSwede44 (@BigSwede_44) reported

    @DndrMffln_Crew i don't see the issue with Female4Female. That's been around on Craigslist for years

  • OmegaKTTN Th🅰️t We♊️rd K🆔 (@OmegaKTTN) reported

    @Mnjsales The next commercial gonna be someone literally getting dragged down a gravel road attached to the bumper of some beat up Craigslist junker 💀💀💀💀

  • highthymes420 America’s Most Blunted🇭🇹🌺 (@highthymes420) reported

    My landlord has until Aug 26th to fix the mold infestation. A 3rd random man from Craigslist not in a PPE suit is “fixing” the mold. He wasn’t even wearing a mask so I gave him one. Crazy how far scumlords are willing to go to save money instead of doing the right thing

  • NonPartisan_Guy A Conservatively Liberal Guy (@NonPartisan_Guy) reported

    Dear Craigslist sellers, you know why people email asking if the item is still available? Because people like me send a message about a current ad asking to buy the item, only to find out they sold it. Take down the ad then! #Craigslist

  • naternft nater (@naternft) reported

    I can’t stop browsing bikes on Craigslist…I really want an old Specialized Rockhopper or Stumpjumper to fix up

  • Casey61665504 Casey Gates (@Casey61665504) reported

    @thebigwave2002 Craigslist search fresh eggs. Quit buying from the stores, start buying from the farmers directly and you won't have this problem.

  • KCurdistan KingOfCurdistan (@KCurdistan) reported

    @Emerantura It may have been open but was the community parading past? If not you are ok. If so you need to fake your own death and hire somebody from craigslist to burn your house down. "Yeah this was the home of the naked garage lady .."

  • atominte Dmitry (@atominte) reported

    @emilyhxrrera craiglist, ebay... why ******? Craiglist, in particular, solves customer problems and requests in the simplest and most cost-effective manner.

  • Nick_Barnes Lil Diablo Sauce: ぬ一タ場所吐いてラメ (@Nick_Barnes) reported

    You know how everyone’s paranoid to buy **** off reverb or Craigslist because it’s probably broken and it’s not the person that sold its fault? No? Yeah probably the best idea is to go act like a god damn cop over there.

  • protecttruth_ Eric Blair🔥 (@protecttruth_) reported

    @jeffjarvis @tomgara @brianstelter Yes. Josh Marshall wrote about how Google and Facebook have broken the link between newspapers and reader bases, imposing a middleman that controls who sees the ads. Before Craigslist, newspapers controlled who saw the ads.

  • TheNubianQueen5 TheNubianQueen (@TheNubianQueen5) reported

    Why is #craigslist not working?

  • joepohlen Joe Pohlen (@joepohlen) reported

    My strategy was buy a house owner occupied with a little money down as possible and rent all the bedrooms on craigslist or to coworkers. Then wait 6 months and do it again.

  • PetezaQueen haley⁷ 💜 (@PetezaQueen) reported

    APPARENTLY IM NOT ALLOWED TO SELL TICKETS ON FACEBOOK. EVEN THO I SEE PEOPLE SELL TICKETS ALL THE ******* TIME. SAME WITH CRAIGSLIST!!! IDK WHY THEY TOOK MY POST DOWN. I LITERALLY HATE EVERYONE

  • sleezsisters Ben Boyer (@sleezsisters) reported

    @JeffNale I have a feeling the prices on Seatgeek/Stubhub etc. *won’t* go down closer to showtime; it’s in those sites’ interest to not allow for people to wait to buy, for the sake of the business model. The Craigslist listings I’m seeing look awfully sketchy though.

  • MySHSHL_PA MySHSHL (@MySHSHL_PA) reported

    @MikeyD_OandBP When we were locked down I bought everybody's weight sets off of Craigslist and set our gym up so we'd never have to rely on anyone else again. Our basement has a mish-mosh of everything but we're able to do any workout with free-weights, racks, and benches.

  • jayadan Jay Adán 🔀 (@jayadan) reported

    @kitbashcat I've had this issue for a while being a larger gent without the means to invest in a decent chair. I was able to find a Herman Miller chair for cheap via Craigslist. It turns out that there are tons of the used chairs floating around out there that can be had on the cheap.

  • atime4wellness Michael Minunno (@atime4wellness) reported

    @jimcramer In addition, how does Ebay sell NWT " new with tag" items from uncle Joe's personal store?? I don't see lowes or hd or Macy's names on the seller? Craigslist, Nextdoor yard sales garage sales all have items with TAGS so what we have a HUGE fencing problem.

  • MATT22NIKE22 Matt Ploharski (@MATT22NIKE22) reported

    @GameStopHelp I get it but just 5.50 is redictulous a gallon of gas is more then a ps5 controller if ur having issue selling white ones send me the controllers and I’ll sell on online sites like Craigslist cause if ur buying for 5 u should be selling used for 30 bucks

  • Thefrugalgay11 Thefrugalgay 🏠 (@Thefrugalgay11) reported

    He came in ready to buy He found me through Craigslist where I was advertising at the time. He put 10% down in cash after viewing as he wanted to ease my mind and show his true interest in owning my condo.

  • N_idk678 Natalia (@N_idk678) reported

    @saint_deana She did try Craigslist too but took it down bc the cops got complaints of a **********.

  • riskyappetite Roguernaut (@riskyappetite) reported

    @ClaudetteGGibs1 Craigslist.. You'll have 20 applicants beating down your door in no time.. 😎

  • bestpartofwaki1 Folgers (@bestpartofwaki1) reported

    Like if I had a family member who I learned had responded to an ad on Craigslist to appear on TV and have their business increased or get over a personal problem I would be way more relieved to hear it was Nathan Fielder behind it rather than who it is 90% posting those ads

  • sirkastik1 SirKastik🪡 (@sirkastik1) reported

    @mrgnfrbz @OlgaNYC1211 Sold on Avito, a RU platform like craigslist. Posts contain dog whistle words like "soft toy 6 y.o. rubber previously used" and picture of kids toys, like dolls and teddy bears. Some posts are scarry, because they read "broken. Can use for spare parts". Just imagine.
