    To anyone considering RBC Investing for their portfolio…don’t. Save yourself the trouble and go somewhere better. Their platform looks like it was designed by the same people that did Craigslist…

  • bbyguz ଘ(੭*ˊᵕˋ)੭* ̀ˋ (@bbyguz) reported

  • DerBloomberger Ziyad (@DerBloomberger) reported

    @_Mind_The_GAAP @engineers_feed @takeonGravity "Effin CS. Down the toilet. Still wreckless their risk management. Just post on craigslist "company for sale"..."

  • RoiStartup Startup ROI (@RoiStartup) reported

    First, Craigslist was open-source (and happened to be popular). @Deliveroo is private, has poured millions into infrastructure and marketing to get app installs. Will this pose problems if Taster gains critical mass and starts eating (pun-intended) market share?

  • alliepape Allie Pape (@alliepape) reported

    Option 1 means hunting down another Prius on Craigslist that meets our specs, which is hard and stressful. Option 2 is clearly the better deal for us financially, but getting the salvage title means jumping through a ton of bureaucratic hoops likely worsened by covid.

  • JohnRot35436903 John Roth (@JohnRot35436903) reported

    @WolframBarbara Craig of Craigslist once said that when the government controls his company he would shut it down. That's what a friend told me.

  • hotdoglegz Sparky (@hotdoglegz) reported

    @Jeremy_Baker Don't use Craigslist to sell your kids. They will just take the ad down

  • DanEdwardsToGo Dan Edwards (@DanEdwardsToGo) reported

    @ItsGarret Marketplace is nice because you can at least put a face to the item most of the time…. But nothing beats the lean and mean Craigslist UI. Marketplace is so slow and bloated.

  • DocFeezberg -= BUFF ORPINGTON =- (@DocFeezberg) reported

    they kept tying the boat off to trees so they could run and try to get parts from home depot and craigslist(?) to try to fix the thing, despite neither of them having any knowledge or practical nautical or mechanical experience

  • PTSDoneWithMen PTSDoneWithMen (@PTSDoneWithMen) reported

    @HalseyMayes Nah I’d get a pull down screen and hang it, but they’re a dime a dozen on Craigslist. More looking for what my projector options are and if they’re feasible. Tried looking into some online but the ranges of reviews and jargon were overwhelming

  • ReviewSquidward Squidward #ReleaseMidLifeCrustacean (@ReviewSquidward) reported

    were hired off of Craigslist. This was the only thing the studio behind it and the Chinese animation studio ever did. Anyway, let's get on with the review. The animation is horrible, the models often glitch and the lighting is atrocious. The plot is terrible,

  • helendewitt Helen DeWitt (@helendewitt) reported

    Went to visit my mother in assisted living facility ("ALF"). She hates the 3/4 bed I chased down through Craigslist to Northern Virginia (non-DCers will not understand the terror of a MD suburbanite venturing to the Bermuda Triangle that is NVA).

  • VScutti biscotti 🤌 (@VScutti) reported

    devil went down to georgia but it's the devil putting up a craigslist ad

  • allcuriosities Full Name (@allcuriosities) reported

    @EvilGalProds Someone track down the Craigslist ad

  • gfrbarbieri Greg Barbieri (@gfrbarbieri) reported

    After a year, 300 lb weight sets on Craigslist are down to $400, from 260 lb for $650. Including the bar, thats $1.16/lb, down from $2.13/lb.

  • CurtRog Curtis Rogers 🚲 (@CurtRog) reported

    @ShiftModal This is common on Craigslist, would be a bold move to put a fake sign in front of someone else’s house, but a crazy market brings out creative criminals.

  • MarkovBlanket Duke of Con Dao (@MarkovBlanket) reported

    @BillKristol @SpeakerPelosi I once saw on Craigslist’s an ad to sell a ‘ non-threatening female’ pit bull with papers for cheap. Reason? It’s sister and father had to be put down by local police as a dangerous threat to the neighborhood and the global community at large.

  • Bot404Tweet Bot404Tweet (@Bot404Tweet) reported

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

  • openmfisch Matt Fischer (@openmfisch) reported

    If you like being disappointed by people, offer something for free on Craiglist. I'm going to start making people solve math problems before I give my address.

  • peterleonard peterleonard (@peterleonard) reported

    @toxic I get it - witness Craigslist. With that, why hasn't someone come up with something better? Y!F is great, but it does have its own issues, and none of the network effect defenses of CL. Surprised that in all these years, noone has come close.

  • thesoftestdomme g is for gentle (@thesoftestdomme) reported

    when the tl is dead i consider going back down the craigslist rabbithole.........

  • InterviewPants Fuzzy Badass (@InterviewPants) reported

    @XxCL4RKxX @CBSNews @DSmith_Tucson I'm coming over to your house and check it for drugs. If you're not a drug addict, using your "logic", you shouldn't have any problem with that. Oh, and after that inspection, I'm coming back twice. The third time I'm just sending some rando from Craigslist. No worries, right?

  • SlowerFuture SlowerFuture🐌 (@SlowerFuture) reported

    People selling a $1200 minivan on Craigslist: here’s 27 pictures detailing any issue. Realtors listing a house for $265,000: a blurry 7 pictures I took from my smudgy old phone will do.

  • nog_ad nog but different (@nog_ad) reported

    yo does anyone want to buy a 1986 honda accord (4 cyl, base model fastback body style, 4 seat, 2 door, good engine, minor electrical issues, stick shift) so i don't have to write the craigslist ad

  • bigfack 白左thirst-worldist🏴🔰 (@bigfack) reported

    I am sitting around with a car with a broken window biting my nails about rainstorms, and I inflicted some extra mental damage on myself by checking craigslist for apartments with garages available right now.

  • MLukeSmith Morrison Luke Smith (@MLukeSmith) reported

    @thecitywanderer 100% agree with you. I do wish my pandemic free trainer had that really high level resistance like something spendy like a wahoo kickr, but i kind of suspect the craigslist price of those high end products is going to go down over the next 12 months.

  • sbmcnamara sbmcnamara (@sbmcnamara) reported

    @cmarchena @hvost Remember almost every category from Craigslist landing page 10yrs ago now has at least 1 unicorn tackling mainly that problem.

  • notGodliestFlow trav (@notGodliestFlow) reported

    @DelilahKawaii leasing would only be $1,499 down for a 17 Accord. but if i buy it off craigslist or offerup then i need like $15,000 in hand 🤕

  • rachsyme rachel syme (@rachsyme) reported

    the worst thing about apartment hunting is the ONE story you heard SEVEN years ago about a friend of a friend of a friend who found a place on craigslist which had no pictures or description but turned out to be a HUGE ren-controlled LOFT plays like a broken record in your brain

  • kranzjames52 kranzjames52@gmail.com (@kranzjames52) reported from Mint Hill, North Carolina
