  funny story, bluebird SRs ran a distributor instead of a coil pack, and the one on my donor engine was dead. in 2005 i posted on craigslist, and tracked down a spare ECU in Everett, WA from a 70 year old man who collected 240sx's. he was a millionaire from selling old farmland he bought in the 1950s, and for fun he built a barn with two working lifts just to restore S13 240sx's to showroom condition with all OEM parts. he had probably 10+ in various states that once finished he'd just sell to random people. he had a separate barn with a hidden sliding door with a room full of spare parts he collected off ebay. i spent a day with him driving back and forth between his farms to try and find the part. ive always wondered what happened to him, and regretted not staying in touch. pic of the beat up dodge colt he drove.

  10 years ago I bought a desk off of Craigslist of $75. I offered him $80 if he would deliver it (1 mile). I still have the same desk. Down to about .53 cents per month by now.

  @keshavchan craigslist might be the ultimate example of this also interested in putting together a list of products that understood what made them special and doubled down on that rather than diluting

  @mattyglesias Another big issue is the death of local reporting. Local newspapers were decimated first by Craigslist, and then finished off by Facebook. I'm on a couple local councils and the Chamber of Commerce, and there is no good way to keep people informed anymore.

  > 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.

  @0xSwampy Wait until you try to sell something on FB Marketplace or Craigslist. The most annoying buyers are Indians, hands down. You will be amazed by the pattern of experience.

  Put an ad on Craigslist and Facebook Market place that is where I get my eggs from. And have a porch pick up. Can you hang a sign in a tree that says fresh eggs. Go around the rules instead. You cannot fight the ******** in our government. They are mindless clones with limited IQ

  @the_dadchef When my '77 wall oven started acting up: "Ma'am, for the cost to fix this you may as well buy a new one!" After TWO new garbage wall ovens later, I'm scouring Craigslist & Marketplace for a circa 70s-80s oven in decent shape (avocado or gold now acceptable). Ridiculous.

  It’s really simple to solve the watch party tkt issue @TheGarden has. All you have to do is make the tkts non-transferable, that way resellers have no incentive to buy them up and resell on craigslist, eBay & Eventbrite etc. I’ll take 6 tkts to game 3 for solving this for you

  PRAIRIEVILLE, LA MAN ARRESTED AFTER TRYING TO TRADE HIS WIFE FOR A USED BOAT, $400 CASH AND A BAG OF FROZEN CATFISH GONZALES, LA — Because apparently Craigslist was down, a 54-year-old man from Prairieville, LA wandered into a Bass Pro Shop yesterday morning and attempted to negotiate what he confidently described as a 'reasonable trade.' The store associate stated the man wanted to trade his wife of 23 years for a slightly questionable 14-foot aluminum fishing boat and $400 cash. Authorities say Rodney Thibodeau approached the boat counter at exactly, 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, and a bag of frozen catfish. Bold strategy. Shockingly, the employee did not immediately ring it up. Rodney then presented a printed document titled 'WIFE-FOR-BOAT TRANSFER AGREEMENT' (yes, in all caps, to ensure the legality of the contract). Highlights from the document include: A 3-day return policy. A notarization by his cousin who authorities stated is absolutely not a notary. A 'best features' section listing 'doesn’t snore very often, can clean a bass & siphon gas from a truck.' An 'as-is condition disclosure,' because he wanted to 'keep things honest.' 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 law enforcement. When deputies arrived, things only got better: Denise reportedly responded with a deeply philosophical, 'Where the hell is he', followed by 'I'm going to kill him' Rodney insisted the trade was 'fair market value as the boat, again, did have a hole in it.' Both were taken into custody. Rodney for attempting to sell a human being and Denise for threatening ****** injury against Rodney and 7 other Bass Pro Shop associates. Denise has since filed for divorce, citing what legal experts are now calling 'the boat thing.' When asked for comment, Rodney stood by his decision, stating, 'Look man, it came with a trolling motor mount.' 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.' I have to believe there's a lesson somewhere in there, but I've not been able to suspend my disbelief long enough to figure out what it might be.

  In 2005, Craigslist turned down $10 billion from Rupert Murdoch. No auction. No bidding war. No counter. Just no. Craig Newmark thought selling would betray the people who used the site.

  Who in the world owns Craigslist? I just heard that Tesla had bought it out, is that true? We listed Belgian Mallinois puppies on there for sale and they keep taking the ad down, saying “some posters objected to my ads”. There are some petty, immature jackasses out there including Craigslist! That’s my rant for the week!

  @Charles07788205 @RubiRubidoooo KSL (not KSE—likely a typo) is KSL Classifieds, Utah's big online marketplace (like Craigslist) run by Deseret News. The guy in the video is from the Kingston clan ("The Order"), a polygamist group based in Davis County, Utah. Polygamy is illegal under US/UT law (bigamy felony), but these groups often use one legal marriage + "spiritual" unions to skirt enforcement unless abuse/fraud/child issues arise. They've been investigated for decades but operate in plain sight there.

  @Ridire_Creachta I promise you it is. Found a motorcycle on Craigslist and scheduled to go drive down that weekend to get it. Parents wouldn’t let me leave the house and said if I did “in their truck” then they would report it stolen and the only way I could leave was if I paid them what I “owed” them.

  @sarahlol1863603 @Howlingmutant0 This reminds me there used to be these craigslist ads in an area I used to live of some old geezer looking for someone to "come find me in my house already lubed up presenting my ***" etc etc. Then they took down craigslist personals.

  @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.
