  • dpinsen David Pinsen (@dpinsen) reported

    @AndySwan @Carvana Maybe they’re better at the higher end, but had a similar issue with Car Cash in New York like 10 years ago. Offered $200 for a 2000 Jeep Cherokee; I posted it on Craigslist for blue book value and sold it for that later that day.

    Nothing makes me want to shoot myself more than idiots on craigslist asking me to haggle myself down. Me: I'm asking $500. Guy: What's your best price, bro? Tonight. Cash. Me: uhhhhhhhh I'm asking $500. Guy: Ad says OBO. What's your best offer? Me: uhhhhhhhhhhhh

  • TAFKA_KT T.A.F.K.A (@TAFKA_KT) reported

    If you are moving abroad, try to save money by buying your furniture on sites like Gumtree or Craigslist. Don’t by soft furnishings or beddings, you can get those cheaply on Amazon or in the supermarket. You can buy items that can be wipe down with disinfectant.

  • C0mpZach If Only I Knew Why (@C0mpZach) reported

    @hansvanharken Teleportation. No traffic, no need for a license or car for everyday A-B. Got yourself into a sketchy situation in a dark alleyway craigslist deal? No problem! *Bloop* You're back at home.

  • JesusFChristo Tater Tots McGee 💛🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈 (@JesusFChristo) reported

    Why do people do this? You’re selling something on Craigslist/Marketplace. Someone contacts you and wants the item. They get your information then ask if you can go down to half the fvcking price. You say no. They say that’s fine. You set up a time to meet. They don’t show. 😩😡

    @TheVisualMonkey @jacksonc AirBnB was an answer to Craigslist ads for temp housing. Imagine what the issues were *there*.

  • liliofthevaley Lili 🍀 (@liliofthevaley) reported

    Am I a bad person/terrible consumerist if I don’t want “free” baby stuff off of Craigslist?? 😕 My MIL keeps sending me things and like I get it thank you, but also I work hard, I can afford to buy my baby new things. But on the other hand it is free so maybe I’m being spoiled

  • hugseverycat0 Denise 🐈 jin ling protection society (@hugseverycat0) reported

    just thinking about the time i put a computer up for sale on craigslist (this was like 10 years ago) and the listing was taken down for violating the site's rules and it turns out that (at that time anyway) cl was 100% user policed and i had absolutely no recourse

  • tinygirlbighair Tiny Girl Big Hair (@tinygirlbighair) reported

    @ForesttMama I would say pittie and GSD! I would say the rehoming fee is normal because they do that to prevent monsters from buying puppies for dog fighting. I’m assuming this was on Craigslist or something and not through a legit rescue? She looks like she might have some skin issues too.

  • retrotechbytes RetroTechBytes (@retrotechbytes) reported

    @vswitchzero @eBay @eBayCanada Definitely, I can see that. I don’t get it either man and, honestly, it’s gonna become a real problem because there’s really not many other mainstream fora for selling anything and everything, besides maybe Amazon or OfferUp/Mercari/Craigslist, but even those differ greatly

  • isist0p isist0p (@isist0p) reported

    @ArchiveLeafy offerup facebook or craigslist from an independent seller but make sure theyre no engine issues or salvaged

  • kyleshevlin Kyle Shevlin (@kyleshevlin) reported

    Saw an absolutely perfect pickup truck on Craigslist yesterday. Old but low mileage, no frills, and under budget. Only problem? Seller will only take cash, and my online bank has a withdrawal limit too low to get enough out for it. 😭 Only time in years this issue bit me.

  • richbutsad ally 💫 (@richbutsad) reported

    down bad (on craigslist)

  • PlatinumPuma 🌿Coast🌴 (@PlatinumPuma) reported

    Why is Craigslist not working, I'm trying to post this unused stuff for sale 😿

  • AnnieFannie6566 Anne 🌱 (@AnnieFannie6566) reported

    @TeddyandBertie Put a ad on Craigslist lost/found and pets sections and search there often. Put a large sign in your front yard near the road and large bright colored posters up all over the area. Cats get scared and can go missing a while so don't get discouraged!

  • mchallis Michael Challis (@mchallis) reported

    @patrick_oshag Visa/MasterCard definitely. My largest position for years. Craigslist is somewhat broken by scammers and Facebook marketplace I’m afraid. Berkshire Hathaway and Amazon maybe.

  • KateBurgener Kate Burgener (@KateBurgener) reported

    @benjablake We once rescued a pair of CD towers from an apartment complex dumpster and while they were absolutely fine while in my apartment, they caused a lady to absolutely lose her **** on me in a hectic craigslist free for all, so they were obviously haunted in a slow burn way.

  • flummoxbox John (@flummoxbox) reported

    I believe kids now a days should have to buy a barley running car off Craigslist with their own $ Maintain it for a year, broke down on the side of the road, smoking engine, the whole 9 Should create a few stronger men

  • madagascar80 Doug Moczygemba (@madagascar80) reported

    @byHeatherLong @benshapiro Craigslist toliet paper down 92%.

  • Seonghwas_plush Tiny (@Seonghwas_plush) reported

    If I wanna sell my stuff, where should I use? Craiglist or EBay? Because I want a lot of people to get rid of my stuff and I'm unsure rn on how to solve this problem 🥺

  • extremely_wet jezza (@extremely_wet) reported

    @Source_Force I got mine on Craigslist. probably could get a better deal just walking a neighborhood you wanna be in and looking for signs in the windows though and taking down numbers

  • fatgoth420 gabberpwntin (@fatgoth420) reported

    this is like… this is what we knew was headed our way when craigslist personals was taken down but im in shock to see it progress this quickly. all the bad things happen so ******* fast while we’re busy trying to cope with the Other bad things

  • ylzec Ylzec (@ylzec) reported

    @PlayApex have you guys looked into a server upgrade? You could put prolly get a significant upgrade for $2 on craigslist

  • BecomeOOAK O.O.A.K 💎 (@BecomeOOAK) reported

    The easiest way to make side income is to flip something Get on Craigslist Get on Facebook marketplace Learn how to talk people down $30-$40 on a good deal List it again on Facebook and Craigslist Sell for same listed price or more

  • HOUDlNlLOGIC BasedCoast2Coast (@HOUDlNlLOGIC) reported

    @vers_laLune More importantly it can be done with old intel server hardware readily available on ebay/offerup/craigslist for less than that

  • QueenChandrelle Goddess Chandrelle 🌿 (@QueenChandrelle) reported

    @YourxHighness @ThatsMissLisa2u Some ******* actually stole it from our property in WA when our house burned down. I found that sucker on Craigslist two months later 😩 they tried selling it for scrap metal!! I was so mad

  • elefsisis voted #1 cat poster by my cats (@elefsisis) reported

    i just spent like an hour putting on press on nails and at no point during did i remember that i’m currently using a menstrual cup. i don’t think getting it out will be a problem but i’m gonna have to hire someone off craigslist to cram that thing back in

  • jbfondue JB (@jbfondue) reported

    @SiennaSummerEIC This industry is where you are in a way selling your time. How much do you value your time. It is not like buying a microwave from someone on Craigslist where if you get them down on the price it is a good thing. Got to think of the cost that goes into this.

  • smashmouthofcl #1 Smash Mouth Super Fan (@smashmouthofcl) reported

    I settled down late in life because I spent most of my 20s and 30s on Craigslist Personals trying to live out my Ginger Snaps kink, where two sisters murder me, but the younger one feels bad about it.
