    @ryantomorrow Saw a really clean manual 9-5x sportcombi aero with some nice upgrades on Craigslist and it sent me down the rabbit hole…..

  • RaccoonMediocre Mediocre Hourly Raccoon Names (@RaccoonMediocre) reported

    @raccoonhourly "Just name the time and place and Mr Fluffles will take care of all your problems" Says a worrying ad on Craigslist.

  • island_goy Gavin Eugene Short II (@island_goy) reported

    I think Craigslist is down

  • LeftEGrove Petty Guererro: Flow Wrestler (@LeftEGrove) reported

    @Sephsrot I wasn’t aware of it until I started looking around. And since I’m off Facebook permanently, marketplace is out. So is Craigslist. Not much more choice wise down here. But I’m digging.

  • pastelwhee ᝰ mo•mo pei•ji (@pastelwhee) reported

    @postmortem_jpeg There are a lot of forums and people with craigslist type ads looking specifically for someone to kill as a means to eat them AFTER. There are a few true crime YouTube videos discussing a couple recent cases. Wherein the murder *prior* to the cannibalism is the problem? Lol.

  • Roarysaur I put the cry in cryptid (@Roarysaur) reported

    @Echo_Rose_Heart @Oui_Cake I’m sorry to be that person but if you can only afford to neglect an animal until they die a slow and painful death, maybe don’t buy that animal. There’s plenty of ways to set up an affordable and appropriate tank. Look at FB marketplace or Craigslist, it saves a lot of money.

  • AtomicGaryBusey AGB (Alex) (@AtomicGaryBusey) reported

    @onefiftyfivemm @uckema Not sure personally. I only found out about this and went down the rabbit hole when I found a seller listing a few years ago on Craigslist buy/sell specifically targeting milk sales to bodybuilders.

  • sr_mad_science David Rolfe (@sr_mad_science) reported

    @Stuck4ger @Peter_J_Beck Thanks for the answer! 2 more q's: 1. Is the back of a Parafoil heavily reinforced, along with the last set of lines? 2. What was the wording of the craigslist ad you used to hire the dude who goes down the rope and wrangles the chute? :)

  • jdandersonct Jay Anderson (@jdandersonct) reported

    @SpyderTracks @AudiophiliacMan There’s a great high-end shop in my area that I have visited. Great guys, very knowledgeable. My problem is that I buy second hand equipment, usually eBay or Craigslist and don’t feel comfortable asking for help without making a purchase.

  • thebigtex915 El Casper Ph.D (@thebigtex915) reported

    @SF__Cali @The_Homie_9er_G **** playa. Old lady was asking $30 on Craigslist but hustled her down to $27 like a G. Haters fall back.

  • Johhnyjeeper Johhny (@Johhnyjeeper) reported

    @Jim_Jordan Do you even realize what you, or your Craigslist interns just put out there? Do better or sit down. You look like a clown.

  • kristorey_ kris☀️ (@kristorey_) reported

    been down abysmal anyway i was on craigslist for shits and giggles but ive become very enamored with a pair of cats that need to be rehomed god give me strength to let it pass

  • notfknbritish london (@notfknbritish) reported

    who's down to help me steal the RadioShack sign in kihei im pretty sure its the last one in existence and we could sell it for $3000 on craigslist

  • caseytube caseytube (@caseytube) reported

    Every goddamn apartment website is like this too. There's no escape. What's terrible is that the most valid one I've found is Craigslist, which is hard to avoid scams in, but ultimately more user friendly than these multi-billion dollar nightmares.

  • steven_metz Steve Metz (@steven_metz) reported

    Look at the Dow's close I guess I can take down. that ad that I placed on Craigslist offering to sell one of my kidneys earlier in the day.

  • RebeccaDante Rebecca Dante (@RebeccaDante) reported

    The irritating thing about using Craiglist for buyers are people who post something for sale and never take down the ad. And those who don't respond. For sellers, it's the "do you have this still?" when I state clearly in the ad if the ad is up, it's here

  • musicdude8437 Omar Villalobos (@musicdude8437) reported

    @HeadRushFX I bought a Headrush from Craigslist worked great but found out the usb port and midi ports are not working and can’t update the board now the screen stopped working what can I do? Help!!!

  • ANotoriousPIG Notorious P.I.G. (your Fairy Hogmother) 🐽✨ (@ANotoriousPIG) reported

    I just took my CraigsList ad down

  • spookadelicelle nellie (@spookadelicelle) reported

    The feminine urge to put an ad on Craigslist asking someone to take down my Christmas tree for me

  • dsngiem daniel (@dsngiem) reported

    Another box down. I still have a lot to put up on craigslist

  • fizziiepop ♬. hilda (@fizziiepop) reported

    @fabiiepop does i cant fix you have the line "if ive learnt one thing it's that, don't respond to craigslist ads"? no. it doesn't.

  • UNCBroMo UNCBromo (@UNCBroMo) reported

    @ATT @ATTCustServ when are you going to get your **** together and stop allowing spam text messages about local hookups and such? This is not Craigslist personals or back page. Fix it!!!

  • pets_in_danger Pets in Danger (@pets_in_danger) reported

    @sharirescue You circulate this under the guise of being a Christian...? Not a word about shutting down Craigslist where backyard breeders crank out puppies. Not a word about irresponsible owners not spaying/neutering. It's always shelters shelters shelters/ACC. @SenatorBraun @SenWhitehouse

  • GenTXeva GenTXeva (@GenTXeva) reported

    @Jerry10071111 @DHSBlueCampaign We’d do better to close down @adultfriendfind if we want to stop trafficking. It’s how I was used after Craigslist Personals got shut down.

  • Jonniey_Webster Jonniey Webster (@Jonniey_Webster) reported

    @braxton_mccoy Don't buy them new. You can find very good looking ones on craigslist. Even better yet broken ones that look great. Who cares if they don't shoot BBs or not. Who cares if the internals don't work. It's an airsoft gun.

  • StudioMelectro Melectro (@StudioMelectro) reported

    @angelofdarknes1 Zillow, apartments dot com, good ol Craigslist. I have moved around Boston so many times I just chaotically look at them all and shut down.

  • alm0ndmilf nicer in person (@alm0ndmilf) reported

    Craigslist trucks for sale post “yeah it has no sway bars, 278k miles and a dent in the windshield but I’ve been driving it through the pass every day 5 years no problems!”

  • sadtcdisrupt Sad Disrupt (@sadtcdisrupt) reported

    Craigslist, but for broken relationships. #TCDisrupt

  • JJFarrell451 John Farrell (@JJFarrell451) reported

    @EveLynne42 Actually I did a lot of day of show or Craigslist buying looking for those seats...I had parking down pat, but it just turned out that it came with the seats when I located them...The balcony at HOB Boston held maybe 40 and you could relax & watch the show with no obstructions...
