Craigslist Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Szustak Me 🇺🇸 (@SzustakMe) reportedThey need to shut down the source of gathering listing. Probably Snapchat, Instagram or Craigslist

John Mac (@JohnMcCart87216) reported@StefanMolyneux My car was broken into, my wallet and music gear was stolen, and listed on craigslist and the seller included his address (across the street from me), and I had two gas station videos of him using my credit card --- the cops said THEY WILL NOT FOLLOW UP.

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.

PureProduct io (@PureProductIO) reportedMost brands burn cash on flashy ads while their product pages look like 2015 Craigslist posts. Your listing copy, photos, and UX do more heavy lifting than any paid campaign ever will. Fix the foundation before you light money on fire. #ecommerce
-
Khan Krum Gaming (@KhanKrumGaming) reportedAmericans in the cities just go to the store and buy a new one, sell the old one on FB or Craigslist or eBay. Some call a repair guy. Most of rural America can fix anything with w/e is in the utensil drawer.
-
Daeron Myers (@IAMDAERONMYERS) reported"I need a box truck to make real money." Nah. I started in a car after my 9-to-5. Saved $2,200 in courier work. Bought a cargo van off Craigslist. Then a box truck. Your vehicle is not the problem.
-
C (@0xce42) reported@Mossyfoxx Either fix it or sell yours on craigslist and buy a new one.
-
nofunsir (@nofunsir) reported@paulg There is definitely a space for rented private workshops. Even boomers who advertise their ****** overpriced garage on craigslist as a cool workshop at the end basically get creeped out if you actually tell them you intend to use it as a workshop. It's a NIMBY issue.

PR Zoooom (@zoooomNews) reportedSelling a car today still sucks. Craigslist → spam Facebook Marketplace → chaos Dealers → lowball offers You’re always trading off: trust, price, or convenience We’re building @ZoooomApp to fix this: • VIN-based listings (no manual input) • Verified buyers & sellers • Pricing transparency • Title checks What’s the most frustrating part of selling your car?

🥤🦆 (@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?
-
GulagRat (@Gulag_Rat) reported@BitcoinSapiens Rent aka splitting a 1 or 2 BR with a roomate, should have no issues affording it. Do people not use Craigslist anymore? Get a roomate and save your money folks
-
Me! (@Sky_Wrangler) reported@Headshok1962 Were they Down's as well? I mean it matters cuz I have to construct my Craigslist ad correctly...
-
Bob Smith (@TheGoodBobby) reported@mattyglesias Another big issue is the death of local reporting. Local newspapers were decimated first by Craigslist, and then finished off by Facebook. I'm on a couple local councils and the Chamber of Commerce, and there is no good way to keep people informed anymore.

Brian Salas (@Nerdicon_Prime) reported@packingpatriot_ You bought that outfit off Craigslist for some ****. Sit down fake patriot.
-
@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
-
Cori Arnold (@iamcoriarnold) reported6. I sold stuff. I got rid of a lot of stuff. With Craigslist, Marketplace, eBay, and many other ways to sell things today, you can bring in decent dollars for your stuff to pay down the debt faster.
-
cbay (@cbay_cbay_cbay) reported@Brooksgallery8 @AmyDiGi , a project made by lovebeing - a crypto only marketplace that is a inspired by ebay and craigslist. peer 2 peer. 🥰 working on updates, and perhaps an escrow system down the line once we have some angel investment
-
Patrick C. Delaney (@PatrickCDelaney) reported@AngelMD1103 I had this same problem with Craigslist giving away free stuff. Can you help me take it downstairs? No, it’s free stupid
-
Not-him (@TheGhostofThoth) reported@mistressdivy I liked that one. That one was good. I felt that. Being beaten, broken, and damned, just looking for a savior. Haven't found one yet, but then again I've only looked for them on Reddit and Craigslist.

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.

Nicholas DeSuza (@nicholasdesuza) reportedboot craigslist for me cupcake, count the number of dead smart tv's due to power supply corner cutting bullshit. those transformers are dying! - overheating - the hardest part of the chip to fix! XD
-
Psychotic Technique (@CyQoTek) reported@kakashiii111 Funny how watching all these people talk about shortages and high prices- and the work of @GamersNexus, no hate just referencing- say the memory issue. Maybe check out the Craigslist and FB marketplace ads by me- 4090s, 5090s, 32 to 128g ram builds cant bring $1600-1800....
-
D K (@kln_nurv) reported@skylermzx Hm. Arcade closing down? Craigslist/Gumtree? CIAbook marketplace?
-
Less1984More1776 (@TheUSneedsus) reported@MilderAnn @MrAndyNgo It won't. But they've been trying for years. PETA and Craigslist are funding the petitioner. What i think will happen, it will get people talking. And in the next few years it will be dumbed down to something like only 1k hunting/fishing licenses. And you must jump through hoops.

Sohail Iqbal (@siqbal22) reportedSell home goods, furniture, and electronics locally 2–4 weeks before listing by using platforms like Facebook Marketplace, Nextdoor, or Craigslist for quick, high-volume sales. For high-value, high-end items or extensive collections, hire an estate sale professional. Prioritize creating a neutral, decluttered, and bright home environment to appeal to buyers. [1, 2, 3, 4] Top Local Sales Strategies: Facebook Marketplace (Recommended): Best for furniture, electronics, and large household items. Good for rapid transactions. Craigslist: Efficient for furniture and tech, attracting local, direct-sale buyers. Nextdoor: Excellent for reaching neighbors who can easily pick up items. OfferUp: Another user-friendly app for local furniture and electronics, say. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6] Tips for Maximizing Value & Efficiency: Bundle Items: Group small kitchen tools, office supplies, or decorative items to sell them faster. Pricing: Check "completed listings" on sites like eBay to set realistic, competitive prices. Clearance: Consider hosting a garage sale for a one-day purge, suggests. Safety: Meet in public places if possible, or ensure someone is home during local pickups. Donate/Junk Removal: Use charities like Goodwill for donations, and hire services for junk removal to handle items not sold, says. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6] Preparing the Home for Sale: Depersonalize: Remove personal items, religious items, and specific, distracting decorations. Don't Fix Everything: Avoid massive renovations; focus on cleaning and minor repairs. Lighting: Ensure the home is bright and clean, which appeals to a broader audience

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.

Henry Akeley 🇺🇸 (@henry_akeley71) reported@SlumRNA_Dog VB Knives: “Can’t believe anyone would have a problem with this. Some real losers on this site. Making White kids sell peepee rugs to random violent nonwhites on Craigslist is a great way to build character and save up for code school.”

Messer (@hype_joshy11) reported@sarkonakj Righto - so a TERF freak like yourself ******* and whined because she "is afraid of men" but ONLY if they're trans? So she wanted to be away from "men" but only trans ones? If wanting "female-only" housing was the only issue, why was she not looking elsewhere? Craigslist etc..??

Chip Haze (@ChipHaze) reported@SkinnyfatTony @lortunder I had to jump jobs in 2020. Couldn't get robots chips or anything. We were down to buying secondhand parts from craigslist. I built robotic welding machines. We had POs we could deliver on because of Covid. A great company gone
