    @EH_MK2 i wanted to message him back to see if he fixed the car but he pulled the Craigslist ad. he put it down to 2k last time i saw it

  • mjebodias Jeb Murphy (@mjebodias) reported

    @RepMontague Where where you when they shut down the classifieds site ********. Or pressured craigslist to remove their dating personals section.

  • kenkeiter Ken Keiter (@kenkeiter) reported

    @philiprosedale Craigslist. Sometimes the interactions are great, sometimes they're terrible – but either way, you have to have enough trust to meet someone from the internet in person.

  • joahspearman joahspearman (@joahspearman) reported

    @OneBandwagonFan After I graduated from college, I moved to DC and into a place with a roommate I’d never met that I found on Craigslist site unseen. We had a huge rat problem and he wasn’t motivated to do anything about it including leaving food out constantly. I personally trapped two.

  • iisa_bo iisa (@iisa_bo) reported

    @NEmlovesbacon of course!! when that time comes, i would keep an eye on fb marketplace, craigslist, and refurb sites!! i got my surface pro from fb and it was wayyy marked down for a practically new tablet!

  • jppullen John Patrick Pullen (@jppullen) reported

    1/ Having a strange Mac (mini?) bug where my Wifi is blocking internet access to various sites/services on the computer. Can't load twitter well (a good thing, tbh), craigslist is intermittent, lots of secure errors/flags. Computer is wired to ethernet but...

  • DesertTrash1 Desert Trash (@DesertTrash1) reported

    @SpiggyMoon @PlumberAlberta Couch surf Craigslist. They can't shut that down.

  • IvanTufek Ivan (@IvanTufek) reported

    @Jake__Wujastyk FB Marketplace is becoming eBay + Craigslist. Slammed by IG Ads since Omicron is slowing down (Midwest area), I think Q1 2022 will be really good now that the bar is set lower.

  • WhiteCIawQueen only tweets about rabbits and white claw (@WhiteCIawQueen) reported

    @GentlemanSin I mean, I don’t even necessarily have an issue with people keeping snakes as pets. What I do have an issue with is people rehoming or selling domesticated rabbits on community posting sites like Craigslist for little to no money because that usually ends with the rabbit dying

  • romallurgy R✦my (@romallurgy) reported

    I found one on craigslist for $25 but when I texted the guy he said he forgot to take the ad down :( it had only been up one day!!!6

  • usefulsometime whatever_I_want (@usefulsometime) reported

    @Da1sea Isn’t Craigslist personals down for like 2 years now…..

  • Mavs54127102t Mavsmansbiggestfan (@Mavs54127102t) reported

    @plsmavsplayoffs @KirkSeriousFace Cuban was too cheap to find a repair guy on Craigslist to fix it. Got damn!

  • exesoterica sea bunny (@exesoterica) reported

    @ocethot my most immediate suggestion is to double check on craigslist as to what the roommate situation in that area is (typically much cheaper than renting outright though it's got its own challenges ofc) and if there's any bus routes at all that go by your work, checking down those

  • ryanfinlay Ryan Finlay (@ryanfinlay) reported

    @juliey4 Yeah, it's a significant product. I bet it's taken a huge amount of the market from Craigslist. Solves the trust/identity problem that Craigslist had, among other things.

    Is Craigslist down?

  • BostonXpat Boston X Pat (@BostonXpat) reported

    @fin_vagabond If you do go used, go on Craigslist list or FB. I needed a car quick as mine was having electrical issues. Got a 2005 AWD Mercedes for 4k cash. Would have been 7k at a dealer.

  • Amelia_a_writer Amelia (@Amelia_a_writer) reported

    @jballoregon @KATUNews There are so many apartments for rent in this stupid city. The problem is studios start at $1000 for 300sqft. That’s not affordable. And there are 3000 pages of apts for rent on Craigslist. There is no shortage of apts for rent. They are all horrifically expensive.

  • snarknight01 snark knight (@snarknight01) reported

    @CellarDwel13r @JacksonGuitars I'll hit craigslist for a cheap cheap guitar, I cant see ruining my prs.... unless @JacksonGuitars wants to donate a broken guitar? Hint.... cough.... hint...

  • 47gene 47Gene☮ (@47gene) reported

    @Roshan_Rinaldi Was "Craigslist" down for the day??

  • QuodNostra Frontier Futurist (@QuodNostra) reported

    @VeritasVital Sounds like your problem isn’t the ammo in the house, it’s the lack of wealth. Do people quit doing crack when they can’t afford it? No, they sell their kids’ PlayStation on Craigslist. Adapt!

  • 2sexy4thisclass Borat Sagdiyev (@2sexy4thisclass) reported

    @Salon @AmandaMarcotte don't you find it interesting that Mike Pence types and 3rd wave lunatic feminist types are completely in agreement about inane nonsense like shutting down the Personals on Craigslist?

  • lifewinterest Life With Interest (@lifewinterest) reported

    I slept on the floor for a few weeks. Finally I got a futon off craigslist from a very nice but in hindsight creepy old man who had me go down to his basement apartment and asked me to watch a movie with him. Luckily nothing bad came of that encounter.

  • empencil Sewer People Denier (@empencil) reported

    I have a chair for sale on craigslist and whoever finds it first gets to buy it! Also there’s no people down there!

  • pigfoot_power slayman_4eva (@pigfoot_power) reported

    just ****** up my new years resolution. it was “stop trying to fix problems by hiring menacing looking guys off craigslist who destroy stuff and hurt people”

  • Gears_of_Truth Gears (@Gears_of_Truth) reported

    @Melaningaming They on Craigslist like crazy just meet at a police station the tax has went down like crazy saw on there with an ExTrA controller 600

  • HaterCouch HaterCouch (@HaterCouch) reported

    @SkillzVa @Dart_Adams *sigh* I copped a 950 off ebay YEARS ago for like $150. Unloaded it on Craigslist are few years later for maybe $300. TERRIBLE decision. Regret it to this day.

  • smellsofbikes smellsofbikes (@smellsofbikes) reported

    @justinsimoni @cyclelicious Looking on Craigslist for a used parasail. .... No, never mind, that's a terrible idea. $6K you say...

  • AlexandraDixon Alexandra Dixon (Love Thy Neighbor - Wear a Mask) (@AlexandraDixon) reported

    @peggy_blair That's interesting to know. Here in San Francisco French bulldogs are being dognapped at gunpoint then sold on Craigslist. Owners are offering $$$ rewards, and "good samaritans" are supposedly buying the dogs from the on-line sellers and claiming the rewards. See the problem?

    @Zeymoney314 ****** be down bad horny striking out with the 1st, 2nd and 3rd choice then going to pick up a swamp creature off Craigslist lol
