Brett Nashlund (@BNashBHHSDP) reportedBecause: Your price was too high Your marketing was poor It has too many problems or clutter You thought Craigslist had worldwide exposure. Call a professional... Contact me if you're in Northern California.

Rogelio Rodriguez 🇵🇷🏳️🌈🇵🇸🇮🇷🇨🇺 🖖⚾️ (@rorodriguez73) reportedLast time a newspaper classified ad was of use to me was in 2007, when an ad in a physical copy of the Tacoma Tribune got me a new apartment. After that, Craigslist online was the go to, especially in emergency situations. Too bad they had to shut down the horny part of the site.

MasterBismuth (@MasterBismuth) reported@Dong_Quixote1 Back in the day this is precisely what I kept a pair of Craigslist IBM Thinkpads around for. If I wanted to **** with something that I even vaguely suspected might cause problems then I'd install a fresh Xubuntu on one and then jump into the thick of the bullshit.

Conan (@CF_Harms) reportedAll that craigslist **** just adds to the problem Christina

Ryan Du (@Rydx101) reported@felixleezd 'Bad design' is just design that fails the wrong audience. Craigslist looks terrible to designers but users dgaf — it works. Objective bad design doesn't exist, only mismatched context.

Tigerloose (@tigerloose1) reported@GrahamAllen How difficult will it be to track down the people that are selling the merchandise? Facebook, Craigslist, flea markets. Well it is not a law enforcement priority.

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.

Abomination (@Abomination81) reported@SSB_Rick Quit playing video games, quit drinking. How I started making money, that would work today. Found couches on facebook/craigslist for sale. Negotiated them down to almost free. Took them home, cleaned them, took good pictures and posted them for sale with free delivery = 3,500 a month. Yard sales on weekends. Got there at open. Use ebay, click the search for "recently sold items". Look for old video games, sports stuff, action figures... anything. Search for the real value. Offer pennies on the dollar =2,500 month Flipping items I found at Ross, Costco, Walmart, Berlington, Target etc. Look for clearance items. Same as the yard sale. Flipped those items for about =1,000 a month Get an amazon sellers account. Look for items at stores to resell on amazon. Bought Millenial monopoly for 10 dollars at walmart, sold it for 50 on amazon. Rinse and repeat. This replaced the flipping items above, jumped to 5000 a month. Quit wasting your time. The money is sitting there, go work your *** off. **** your video games. **** your alcohol. **** X. **** sports. **** everyone except your kids. You got this man. You can dm me if you want specifics with any of this.

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.

State Sponsored Disinfo Bot (@6EQUJ542) reported@ichewthings I once adopted baby rats on Craigslist. I went inside the house. A cat came down the stairs and jumped on a chair. No less than a dozen rats then came down the stairs and jumped up after him and made a rat pile right on the cat. Cats are bros too.

Kim.A.Mc (@KimAMcGoldrick) reported@AngelMD1103 I’ve had the same problems and craigslist is worse. They flag my posts about everything within five minutes of posting…

Steve (@IovannaSteven) reported@BitcoinNoder I've never had any issues selling livestock on Craigslist. I think that is the only option - the others all have "no live animal" restrictions
-
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

That Startup (@ThatStartup_) reportedIn 2005, Craigslist turned down $10 billion from Rupert Murdoch. No auction. No bidding war. No counter. Just no. Craig Newmark thought selling would betray the people who used the site.

Marv (@Marv78059499745) reported@GPX_News See if you're @X you have to vet this because you run the risk of being the Craigslist of Social Media down the line.
-
@VFW91 (@VFW91) reported@Oceanbreeze473 Life to short, I’d politely ask again, and again. Then I’d buy a $200 car off CraigsList and park it there permanently. Problem solved for $200.

OTROVERT🔴⚪️ (@OLUDAVID_D) reportedA young Swedish woman, who described herself as having extraordinary beauty and extremely seductive charms posted an anonymous ad on Craigslist stating that she was looking for a wealthy man to marry with an annual income of over $500,000, plus several conditions. She received a response from a commenter, as follows: - My dear beautiful lady... I read your post with interest, and I think many beautiful girls have questions similar to yours. Allow me to analyze your questions as a professional investor. My total annual income is over $500,000, which perfectly matches your requirements. From my perspective as a businessman, it would be a bad decision to marry you. Here's my short answer, and let me explain why: "Regardless of the details, what you're doing now is a pure transaction. An exchange of your "beauty" for "my money." Person A has the beauty, and Person B will pay money for that beauty. A perfectly fair and straightforward transaction. However, there's a fatal problem here: your beauty will inevitably diminish over the years, while my money isn't expected to diminish without a strong reason. The truth is, my income will likely increase from year to year, while you won't be any more beautiful in a few years. So, from an economic perspective, I represent an "asset" whose value increases over time, while you represent a "consumer" asset whose value decreases. If your beauty is all you own, things will get worse because you won't be a normal consumer product, but rather a product with a very high depreciation rate that will completely expire within 10 years.

Miyata (@Miyatafest) reportedi never thought we would have a freeloader problem just grab people off craigslist again #fishtanklive

Linda Hand (@JenniferX117) reported@ClownWorld Well what do you call online shopping? We have a problem in the world where people steal from large corporations & others to resell the items online through hosted and self hosted sites such as WhatsApp, poshmark, eBay, micari, X, instagram, Facebook marketplaces and Craigslist.

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

Nicholas DeSuza (@nicholasdesuza) reportedbecause if i can't buy my sh*t for $200 on craigslist, you bet your ******* *** ican walk into a **** and buy the exact same sh*t for that price in a bundle and tear it down anyway from a ****. hilarious. stupid nerds doing the favor now. they'll drive it down for me.

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.

Punky Brewster (@xLAWx_) reported@Lawprism21 @sadhawkeyefan Also they probably got kicked out of school so I cannot really see this craigslist ad for recruits going anywhere outside of a campus. "Just 20 chill dudes who want to hang out. You have to let us best you up and throw salsa down your pants to be our friend though."
-
LeadPilot (@tryleadpilot) reported@andrewchen craigslist worked because newspapers were already dying from their own economics. AI replacing jobs is different than AI undercutting a broken business model that refused to adapt.
-
Redacted (@theKageRyu) reported@desert_starr_57 It's the same with Offerup, Letgo, and craigslist. Though despite the same issues, I did get decent results from Letgo up until Offerup bought them out and tanked the platform I stated right in my posts "Stupid Questions and lowball offers will be ignored and users blocked."

Greg Betz (@gregbetz55) reportedIt's not a coincidence that God killed the founder of the prostitution website OnlyFans with cancer. The government needs to shut that website down like they did with ******** and Craigslist.
-
Bill 'Paw ''EngineSteveO'' Paw' Everydude (@DildoMalone420) reportedNothing may piss me off more than people on marketplace or even Craigslist that put the "money down" as the price of ****
-
Cosmic Nuisance (@cosmicNuisane8) reported@0xInk_ That slop looks like Gypsy Danger from Craigslist, and the "transformation" is just parts awkwardly appearing out of thin air. These problems could be fixed if you didn't need a ******* clanker to do the hard work for you.

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.
