Craigslist Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • ahtzib Jeb J. Card (@ahtzib) reported

    @JasonColavito I played with the toys, including several figures disappearing in backyard. Many got broken. My brother eventually sold the rest on craigslist But honestly the best part was assembling. Sort of a low-investment easy snap-tite model assembly thing that also produced a toy. Genius

  • lamsarttu Arttu Lämsä (@lamsarttu) reported

    @letsnotmeetcast Man, i have the SNES mini, the one that has preinstalled games on it, and then another problem. I live in Europe. In Finland. So shipping would cost more than the console. You should try shearching from like Ebay, Craigslist, Facebook marketplace etc.

  • meitbual Mikey Meitbual? (@meitbual) reported

    @ge0rgemcclure I think Craigslist is served by a pair of load-balanced servers, like for how much traffic it gets/got it's among the most minimal infrastructure-wise. At this point, think it's an ROI/don't fix what ain't broken thing.

  • SFran51 Stephen J. Bunclark 🇬🇧 (@SFran51) reported

    NHS App beeps bringing down society. NHS Boss: "I shouldn't have hired the developers off Craigslist."

  • EvMoWi Evan Morgan Williams (@EvMoWi) reported

    I sold some harps on Craigslist to a busker down at the Saturday Market. I was paid in one dollar bills. Lots and lots of rumpled one dollar bills.

    What are you gonna do peter fix it so I never work in another ****** abusive environment again? go back to cosplaying the craigslist guy you’ll never be him.

  • here4thefellas hugyerbud (@here4thefellas) reported

    @roughrawready1 I met a guy like this on craigslist back in the day...not quite as muscular, but fit and furry as ****, with an *** built for plowing in every position, hard and fast, or slow and deep. Dude would purr when I ate his ***, and literally growl when I chewed on his tits. #beastmode

  • nodoubtman Marc Paradis (@nodoubtman) reported

    I saw a nice stereo on Craigslist for $1. Seller says the volume is stuck on ‘high’ --> I couldn’t turn it down.

  • josie_dot_com josie (@josie_dot_com) reported

    Easy Side-Hustle Idea 💰💡📱 • Learn how to replace iPhone screens on YouTube • Buy the tools to fix + China wholesale phone screens (cheap) • Buy iPhones with broken screens on eBay, OfferUp, Craigslist • Replace screen and resell for profit Low start-up cost, high profit!

  • Bill_Shea19 Bill Shea (@Bill_Shea19) reported

    @jmwall24 The 1990s were a shortsighted time when news outlets SHOULD have put all content behind paywalls (and bought Craigslist). They did not, so the public got used to news for free. That's been a major problem, for sure.

  • Pele3313 Jennifer Lavoie (@Pele3313) reported

    @PhageHunterKW @Leao_pel I second that. I have bought a lot of furniture off of Craigslist and from IKEA here in austin. We also have the flea markets and such but that is really hit or miss of course. The ikea is in round rock though and has had inventory problems lately

  • michaelionsrage ☭ attention seeking communist $tristesse ☭ (@michaelionsrage) reported

    @honorcomplex craiglist, facebook marketplace, and i think estate sales on the last day they market things down like 90% bc they just wanna get rid of stuff, places like goodwill, etc

  • Jk91185408 Jk (@Jk91185408) reported

    @ohcapideas Getting right down to it , what value for uber actually add to the transaction? Accumulation of driver ratings stats and user account info? It would seem to be a Craigslist for rides but with a tweaks for account ratings and payment facilitation. Value the biz accordingly.

  • SaarioBrandon Brandon Saario (@SaarioBrandon) reported

    They kept making profiles of me on craigslist, dating sites, other baseball message boards. It was crazy, had to spend a lot of time tracking down the ring leader, finally called his family business and slowly it stopped

  • as_an_aquarius trevr (@as_an_aquarius) reported

    If your craigslist ad is in carroll gardens i'm gona try and negotiate you down a little extra

  • FiannaFatale Your Favourite Fairy ✨🌸 (@FiannaFatale) reported

    When I bought that other tank from Craigslist, the fish came with a whole bunch of problems. Idk what to do with them

  • Erniecxcane 3DoorPapi (@Erniecxcane) reported

    I think ima hire a craigslist ****** to just hangout with me. I'm this down bad bro.

  • sadalex666 hegel w lox and cream cheese (@sadalex666) reported

    Sold a broken laptop on Craigslist. The guy backed into a car on my block, pulled out, looped back around, and pretended it didn’t happen

  • richardgarrison Richard (@richardgarrison) reported

    @misreadbible This is a great example of why it's a shame craigslist casual encounters was shut down.

  • TheSethOtto Seth Otto (@TheSethOtto) reported

    @Hermann22 I had most of those issues. I miss them so much. Had to sell them on Craigslist years back when I was in a pinch. 😭

  • the_alphaman_ Robo Man (@the_alphaman_) reported

    I saw a nice stereo on Craigslist for $1. Seller says the volume is stuck on ‘high’ I couldn’t turn it down. #general #humour

  • animeb00bz polpette di carna (@animeb00bz) reported

    selling my soul on Craigslist, broken but can be used for parts

  • spookygallahad ultraviolet enthusiast (@spookygallahad) reported

    @restingpotato Good luck! If I were you it may be a good idea to list it on Craigslist instead of going through a dealer, you might also get more $$$. Then just take your cash as a down payment for a decent used car, the new cars from this and last years production model are fucky, good luck!

  • yburyug yburyug (@yburyug) reported

    @ge0rgemcclure As soon as they change it, it ceases to be craigslist. Everyone ever knows how it works and its dead simple. They instead invest their technical resources into automated spam/criminal activity detection so they dont get into trouble.

  • kelseyhuse30 Kelsey Huse (@kelseyhuse30) reported

    @imrissaallen Another idea: post on Reddit Better idea: make a TikTok about it Terrible idea: post on Memphis Craigslist missed connections

  • Greg79190803 Greg B (@Greg79190803) reported

    @mrctv How is it allowed by the city? If anything resale sites like Craigslist and FB marketplace are reinforcing the problem by allowing the resale of stolen merchandise.

  • fabulavancouver Frances Bula (@fabulavancouver) reported

    @vanalogueYVR It seems to be less crazy than Craigslist. I think because you have to use your real name, so fewer scams, more neighbourly type interactions. Fewer people trying to talk you down or not showing up.

  • elstupacabra Kristina R. Mosley (@elstupacabra) reported

    @BettyViaGetty Are you able to look at Glassdoor or Indeed employee reviews? I find those pretty helpful. Like, if I knew where I was applying on my last job (it was a Craigslist thing), I wouldn't have applied because reviews were terrible.
