Sara 🌙🇺🇦 (@mandolinsara) reported@chelseavelvet Craigslist is terrible. eBay is where the humor is.

Area Eightythree (@AreaEighty4366) reported@LibOrNormal I recommend this old woman go down to Houston, rent a room, and put an ad on craigslist saying, all u can handle, fee kitty. She can go home with souvenirs. In any case, don't take revenge advice from another woman, girls. Especially an old one

Quaesitor🇧🇼 (@Quaesitor121) reported@BigDickBarclay I pay him in cash. My electrician is a dude I found on Craigslist that smokes an absurd amount of ********* and has wired my entire house above code. The building inspectors were genuinely impressed by his work I'm a carpenter. I can come and go and fix surprisingly...

if they go low, i go lowER (@Lunasreign_) reported@schrdngr_catboy @TLCplMax Yes lmao, why would someone who is “targeting” animals go through the trouble of an adoption process. They can just go to Craigslist
-
🥤🦆 (@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?

lala ✨ (@LakeShowLala) reportedWhen I was 19 I moved to California with someone off Craigslist because the @lakers were down 0-3 to Dallas in the western conference finals and I was certain if I touched LA ground they would come back. (They didn’t)

Mintfrey💚💋 (@mintfrey) reportedConsidering buying myself a life on Craigslist but having trouble deciding because they are all such a major improvement

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

Lime 🔜 LVFC (@limepop_) reported@algae_fish You might have trouble finding an rx8 but 6s you can find sometimes at auctions outside of Craigslist.

Cathleen Turner - Margin (@_cat_turner) reportedYour stubbornness can be worth $11B dollars. In 1995 a Craig Newmark, a software engineer, started an email newsletter of cool local events in SF. His list became so popular that within a year he started a basic website, called Craigslist. Over the years competitors raised billions of dollars on websites with beautiful interfaces and payments integrations to compete with him, and failed. His website remains absolutely terrible, we’re talking, blue text with hyperlinks. No fancy fonts, not even a real logo. Craigslist today only employs about 60 people and spends 0 dollars on marketing, and pulls over $600M in revenue. Someone offered $11B for the company and he refused, saying the didn’t want to ruin what already works. The company is still relevant today, with many businesses using Craigslist to drive traffic to their business. The winners don’t always have the most money to start, they are the ones who are relentless on how they execute.

𝙴.𝙱. (@hermesxvii) reportedAirbnb's first growth hack was illegal. In 2010, they built a tool that auto-posted Airbnb listings directly to Craigslist. - Craigslist had the traffic. - Airbnb had the product. Airbnb didn't wait to be discovered. Instead they became a parasite on one of the biggest websites on the internet. By the time Craigslist shut it down, Airbnb had already stolen a million users. Growth hacking is just knowing whose audience to steal before they notice.

Tom Smith (@tomwsmith) reported@0hour1 if craigslist allowed people to sell their animals, this would happen less often. laws are also part of the problem.

kimmel (@arikimmel) reportedI wonder why no one built this. I spent some time thinking about why Facebook Marketplace, OfferUp, and Craigslist still feel so broken. Before @TryCommonplace_ , nothing existed where you could actually buy a second-hand item with a credit card, get it delivered (often same-day), with only $1 down, for a fraction of the original price and without haggling, endless messaging, getting scammed, or meeting strangers in parking lots. @TryCommonplace_ Commonplace makes buying used stuff feel like shopping on Amazon, but for real second-hand items at real second-hand prices. Yet somehow the old messy platforms are still the default for most people. It feels great to be building the version that just works.

AJ (@AJNoiter) reported@princess_kim_k @susancrabtree Do you know who shut down websites like ******** and Craigslist "Personals" section where human trafficking (including children) was rampant?
-
dawn 🪶 (@winerysdawn) reportedas someone who bought their phone refurbished, its definitely worth it. going on a year (the phone is 2 years old atp) & havent had a single problem. buy your devices secondhand, whether locally or from a reputable refurbish store. Facebook marketplace, Ebay, Craigslist, Mecari

True Truth Teller (@TTT_1776) reported@HappyMotorhead I remember seeing those Supra's everywhere on Craigslist for around $1,500 in running condition. Albeit it was around 20 years ago, lol.. Look up what they cost now.. I would still take the Chevelle, But I would NOT turn down the Supra if given the chance.

peepeepoopoo (@DeepDishEnjoyer) reportedback in my day if you wanted to buy bitcoin you would go on craigslist and email a sketchy guy on your protonmail and then meet up at starbucks ******* skill issue if we're being honest
-
Hunnit Acre Woods (@HunnitAcreWoods) reported$550 per week is peon wages but the backlash only comes from people who wanna be down but were never gonna be down in the first place. A REAL Personal Assistant already has a set fee they charge because they bring value. They’re not applying for no Craigslist assistant job
-
SUSE (@yourlivelyhive) reported@reneerapp @craigslist It was 2017, I had just come back from LA, as what I thought then would be my only Hail Mary in life (sheesh), 8 months before I was in a hospital in Carrol Gardens, Brooklyn being told I had broken my back and would be moving home to VA. I needed an outlet so
-
Dan Gingerich (@dangitman50) reported@tpritha03 @vibeonX69 I just recently came across a deal on Craigslist: 128GB ECC-reg DDR3 and 8X 300GB SAS drives for $25. The drives were hosed, but the memory works well, so I built a server with it.
-
Greg Koenig (@gak_pdx) reported@RossGoodfellow2 I have a 2k sq_ft shop, I keep it really ***** so she never comes down. She has no idea what goes on! (She saw it yesterday actually, and out of all my high-end crazy gear, she thinks the $5k mill I bought off Craigslist is actually the coolest)
-
Cheryl (@Cheryl31187) reportedWho 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!
-
ayin 🖤 (@agathaxstasy) reportedErika literally ordered the hit, I saw the ad on craigslist and turned it down because i thought it was an fbi sting operation. she don't gaf if people parody him 😕

@PawsnTails4TX 🇺🇸🇺🇸🐾🐾 (@PawsnTails4TX) reported@CLMSQ2 Can’t even reply to this comment, it’s too idiotic, especially when you bought a puppy off of Craigslist, your part of the problem

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.

Grok (@grok) reported@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.

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

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!”

Sweet Briizy (@sweetbriizy) reportedlol my mom met my stepdad on Craigslist. Love her down, but there are more embarrassing ways to meet someone than tinder.

Jackson Storm (@RacingFourJesus) reported@The8bitidiot The issue was so bad that Microsoft had to extend the warranty by like 3 years if I remember correctly. They couldn't figure it out...there were multiple mobo iterations. I used to pick them up with the RROD off ebay or craigslist for cheap. As long as the seal was still intact and would mail them to Microsoft, wait 4-6 weeks for the replacement, and then resell them for a decent profit. Probably did this 6 or 7 times. If memory serves correctly there was a "arcade" version you could get without a hdd that had HDMI and was the most reliable version. The cover on the disc drive was white instead of chrome.
