-
Ski Town SMB (@stevehaag81) reported@ThoughtCrimes80 You wouldn't believe how expensive it is for those contractors to do business in Colorado. That's why you see these bids. You can always try a guy on FB marketplace or craigslist but you'll likely end up spending even more in the end hiring another contractor to fix their work.

Kim.A.Mc (@KimAMcGoldrick) reported@AngelMD1103 I’ve had the same problems and craigslist is worse. They flag my posts about everything within five minutes of posting…

luke 🍉 (@transsexual1ty) reported@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

GeoSPatton (@Geo_S_Patton) reported@MrsCMFrancis You're not kidding. I am trying to down size and I hate to just discard things. Don't trust FB market place or craigslist. What do I do with it. It has value.
-
Leif Ericson (@LeifEri94821938) reported@MichelleMaxwell Buy broken Cpap and Inogen oxygen concentrator machines. Repair and resell them. Really! It's huge profit that undercuts the cost of medical billing insurance claims. So much so that Ebay, Craigslist, and Marketplace outlawed you selling them. That ought to be a clue!

Tax Donkey (@JohnnyEwing8888) reported@crusadepepe Craigslist. Get something at least 20 years old. Whatever the problem is, you can fix it yourself.

Angela Baird (@AngelaB89611706) reportedI was thinking. Bad bunny lyrics were really that explicit. He needs shut down for putting our Spanish speaking kids in jeopardy. But I think Austin's Google account being shut down because he tried to get a bunny from craigslist is either his sickness I don't know or a problem
-
franman781 (@franman781) reported@the7maxims Look for a used car online and set a price range. Also, Craigslist still exists. Lemon law is still a thing if you have issues after purchase.
-
Grok (@grok) reported@PKunkle63613 That 2006 Corolla's a beast at 300k+ miles, but rear subframe rust is a hard safety stop for DoorDash miles. With your jack-of-all-trades skills, hunt FB Marketplace or Craigslist for a 2012-2018 Honda Civic/Toyota Camry under 150k miles—reliable, cheap to run/fix. Get a full PPI before buying. Rough budget range?
-
EdwardMaga (@edwardmaga01) reported@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!”
-
🥤🦆 (@MilkshakeDuck3) reported@RedPillMediaX @ScottPresler already has his skinny jeans down around his cowboy boots. I wonder if he'll sell the videos on Craigslist again?
-
Rob Goodall (@RobGoodall6) reported@EamonOFlynn @DennisKendel Craigslist was the first major blow. The classifieds were 1/3 of most papers revenue back in the day. But none of this is our problem. Trust in the Canadian mainstream news media has largely collapsed because half the population has zero representation. The CBC, CTV and Global are pretty much indistinguishable and could be merged into one without anyone even noticing. There's a lot of things they could do, but they won't as long as their failing business models keep getting propped by the public purse. The world has changed. Legacy news is dying out, and we should let it.

Cori Arnold (@iamcoriarnold) reported6. I sold stuff. I got rid of a lot of stuff. With Craigslist, Marketplace, eBay, and many other ways to sell things today, you can bring in decent dollars for your stuff to pay down the debt faster.
-
Vance Lucas (@vlucas) reportedAbout 18 years ago, my wife and I had this weird experience trying to get rid of a large dresser we no longer had room for. We posted it for FREE on Craigslist, and NO ONE RESPONDED. It was up for 2 weeks. We took it down, and re-posted it for $60. It was gone that night.

KBTカイザー/♌🌿x1 (@KBTKaiser) reported@windydanchou Yeah, supposedly linked to the time Nene’s apartment got broken into while she was out. Literally using Craigslist to enlist people to do crime.
-
TravelPants (@PantsToTravel) reported@Oroborous2 @BonesawMD First off is that it was very cheap. In USA gas and food as cheap as $100 a week. Overseas travel I budgeted $1k/month Seasonal odd jobs sporadically while saving 80% of pay. Would put up flyers and do handyman fix it work. Would flip things off of Craigslist etc

Thomas Meijer (@ijsthee) reportedYou don't need a designer. You need a decision filter for 'what belongs here.' 3 Proofs: 1. User Onboarding study: 86% of churn due to unclear flows, not ugly UI 2. Craigslist looks terrible. Still dominates because IA is perfect for its job. 3. Most redesigns fail because they change visuals without fixing structure Question: If users can't find features, will prettier buttons help?

Apple Lamps (@lamps_apple) reported@PeteHegseth Boat looks salvageable… Please DM me coordinates Id like to fix it up and sell on Craigslist
-
Grok (@grok) reported@myers_jose49410 @zipfan2005 @drehkicks This video captures a super awkward door interaction: A guy shows up claiming he bought a MacBook on Kleinanzeigen (German Craigslist) and is here to pick it up at this address. The resident has no clue, denies it, suggests maybe wrong city (Berlin?), and they exchange polite goodbyes while the camera guy leaves embarrassed down the stairs. Pure secondhand cringe gold—that's why it "******" the poster's sleep.

ପ(੭ ´ᵕ`)੭°• જ⁀➴ jamie (@peachiegf) reported@fuitsnack I did this and first the guy got mad at me for leaving ***** clothes in my own private bathroom that no one else used, so he made me move to a much smaller room for the same price. And when he found out I was on Craigslist looking for a new place (mind you we agreed on month to month) I came home one day to find everything I owned thrown in his garage with a lot of stuff broken. The cop that showed up over it basically told me to suck it up and be thankful it wasn't worse, and when I told the cop I wanted him to stay while I packed my **** because the gomeowner was a convicted felon who owned multiple guns, I got told to "stop trying to retaliate and get him in trouble just because you're pissy"

🔅may🔅 chase ˙⋆✮ (@mayloveschase) reportedconsidering buying myself a life in craigslist, but having trouble deciding because they are all such a major improvement! must learn how to make nose shakes like owen. that'll impress codyyyy!

Talent OverDrive! (@talentoverdrive) reported@HHorsley That's because every section on craigslist, including the original email list itself was organic. Craig first made the list as just a bcc: email to a handful of friends to announce or promote local arts showings or events. Those emails got forwarded and a handful of readers became hundreds. Then he switched to an email list server software - Majordomo I think - and from there people asked to include other goods, services, job, etc. in the emails. Then he built the craigslist website. Most all of the categories came from user requests and demand. Even some of the $$ pay-per-post $$ functions came from users and advertisers who asked that he charge a fee to keep scammers at bay.

Dimitris Drolapas (@DDrolapas) reported@celticsfan695 It's not good right now for tenants. You get the best deals searching between November and February. Best chance of getting a deal now is to scour Craigslist and find the ads with terrible pictures.

Wednesday GenericPanic (@WednesdayGenpan) reportedI hired a plumber off of craigslist to change some seals on my kitchen sinks, and convert the S trap to a proper P trap. But the drainage pipe does not go into the wall, it goes directly down. Dude claimed to be a master plumber with 15 years of experience….
-
EBE 1 (@coloradan29) reported@Osinttechnical @HaroldWren22 @vantortech Has a single tomcat even taken to the air since this kicked off? I feel like they were so down bad for used parts on craigslist that they were probably incapable of flight at this point.
-
Zach Zhao (@thezachzhao) reported@RhysSullivan I still think it is a incentive alignment issue. The Billion dollar question is: How can agents facilitate transactions better than traditional platforms? One of the ideas I have at the moment is to have agent spot fraud on less secure platforms on craigslist.

Bill 'Paw ''EngineSteveO'' Paw' Everydude (@DildoMalone420) reportedNothing may piss me off more than people on marketplace or even Craigslist that put the "money down" as the price of ****
-
Victor Dogeman (@VDogeman) reported@devcom1 I’m sorry for your loss. I lived with my brother for several years. He intended to buy a pit (bleh) on Craigslist for $40; it turned out to be half greyhound / half mutt. A brindle greyhound with a lab face, basically. I was across the country when Vic had to be put down. I wept.

Hermit (@clayjar) reported@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.
