  • TristaLebl81982 TRISTA_LEBLANC (@TristaLebl81982) reported

    Yesterday I sold something on Craigslist and they offered 10 bucks under asking price, which was no problem for me. This was actually an item I had acquired for free and been storing for a while.

  • EmpireOfBuffalo His Honourable Majesty (@EmpireOfBuffalo) reported from Calgary, Alberta

    @krun1337 @goldseek List it on Facebook Marketplace, or maybe Craigslist or something; but you may have trouble getting that in American dollars right now

  • KnotABadGuy Oath Of Quixote🗝️🔑 (@KnotABadGuy) reported

    Before the internet fetishists and kinksters just thought they were psychopaths , according to my sources. Broken beyond relief. I’m lucky to have been born on the advent of Craigslist personals rather than newspaper personals

  • B3Ungovernable StillUngovernable (@B3Ungovernable) reported

    @Warg_33 @UllrRover It may be worth also posting on craigslist that you're place burned down and you're trying to borrow a few tools for cleanup. Might be able to get a local to let you use something for free? Rental tool shop might be able to donate a tool rental?

  • snarkylandlord Snarkylandlord (@snarkylandlord) reported

    @alexthechick @Wu1f_603 This is a great thread. Had to deal with both issues. Sucked both times, but the first one with scammers never got that far. I saw one of my properties listed on Craigslist, which I check but never use.

    @MistyRaeG1 @PamBabcockTruth Abuse isn't better either way. We shut this down at craigslist, at these death camps and #defund all of these paid staff who are enabling it. life imprisonment for breeders and baiters animal abuse is a symptom of a mentally ill society

    I literally have made and manufactured original works of my own or repaired broken machines and profited instantly .I'm talking $14,500 in an hour at a gas station from broken phones I fixed and sold. The net has never beat the streets for me.craigslist was real until

  • tracy_morelock Tracy Morelock (@tracy_morelock) reported

    All you had to do was look at how many puppies from their stores were on Craigslist. They would take the dog back, but you were out your money unless they 'rehomed' the dog...the proper word is resold. A puppy being flipped all over the place at that age is going to have issues

  • sanawnxe Sanawn (@sanawnxe) reported

    it’s funny cause like technically I could probably find someone weird off of Craigslist to give me a lobotomy for 20$. Just think about it, someone out there would be down.

    feeld using the peace sign in their app is craigslist coded

  • KaeleyT Kaeley Triller (@KaeleyT) reported

    @countrypunker I can only tell you what God has done for me and that He hears our prayers and is near to the broken hearted. As a single mom, I was struggling to pay my rent. I didn’t tell anyone, but it was due the next day, and I was trying to sell things on Craigslist to cover the cost. My…

  • SalArnuk Sal Arnuk (@SalArnuk) reported

    A year ago I sold my Grady White fishing boat. I listed it for (I think) $12k on Facebook, Craigslist, Boattrader, and a few others. I offered it to one guy at work for less. I knew him. I knew it would be a zero-issue transaction. I had a bilateral relationship with him.

  • Issitheus Biblically Accurate Pet Rock (@Issitheus) reported

    @andrewhunterm With no formal history of rent payment. Not to mention the unpredictability of gig work not really working as proof of income, finding a place to rent that isn't off FB Marketplace or Craigslist is near impossible. And forget about buying, nobody can afford a 25k down payment.

  • BriannaShrum 🌈Brianna Whitrock (Shrum) ✡️ (@BriannaShrum) reported

    oh dammit I thought I was 2 episodes of succession behind and I was only 1?? I COULD have watched the episode tonight!? In my little garage theatre with my temporary $10 craiglist surround sound with the screen I put up slightly wrong but didn’t want to fix til tomorrow??

  • VenomLance Lance Tedford JohnWick_Yeah.mp3 (@VenomLance) reported

    I’m not talking about videos from shows like Motorweek. That’s actual advice. I’m talking about videos with titles like “$200,000 Craigslist Bentley BROKEN?!??! Part 45” that are exactly long enough to generate ad revenue.

  • sophiaburnsx Sophia Burns (@sophiaburnsx) reported

    i just sold an item in a Craigslist exchange and i was like "lemme know if theres any problems or anything" why am i like this. A normal person would have just taken the money and left and it's their issue now

  • paretopreneur Cagdas Ken Demirel (@paretopreneur) reported

    3 simple methods to find profitable business ideas - the “don't fix it if it's not broken” way: 1. Check popular backed projects on Kickstarter 2. Explore frequent requests on Craigslist and Upwork 3. Check top sellers on Amazon and Ebay See what's working - then make it better

  • benk1976 Ben (@benk1976) reported

    Google used to be really good at finding information. It's really slid entirely into finding products, advertisers, Pinterest, blogs etc. Good luck if your search includes a food item. It's an endless list of terrible food blogs. I miss old Craigslist and old Google.

    @cloudeeuhh @SpecialKAlgee meanwhile you're the one looking for a spot on Craigslist. Might wanna tone it down Babe.

  • sydney_bug ☁️ syd has a knee ☁️ (@sydney_bug) reported

    @JRR_Tolkitten @cloudeeuhh It’s rude to speak in a casual way to a stranger, a person that doesn’t know you or their number it’s not hard to say “hi I saw your ad on Craigslist is there space available?” Honestly I think the person who taught you speaking my casually to strangers has more issues tbh

    I recently sold two office chairs to someone on craigslist for $500 each. I carefully worded this in the listing to make sure that people knew that I would be happy to exchange the chairs for another one if there were any issues.

  • shawdeeiipee Val Venis (@shawdeeiipee) reported

    @ExcuseMyFly also look on Craigslist for Herman Miller office chairs, when offices shut down a lot of them posted them on their for under $300
