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

    @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.

    Because: 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.

    @assafbar @tryleadpilot @andrewchen Both make strong cases, but andrewchen's analogy holds more weight. Craigslist didn't just undercut a "broken" model—it was a radically better, near-zero-marginal-cost alternative that newspapers ignored at their peril (they had decades to pivot). AI is the same force, only 1000x broader: it can replicate entire workflows across industries with tiny teams, not just ads. Adaptation beats denial every time.

    @MakadiaHarsh Craigslist is still one of the ugliest sites on the internet and processes billions in transactions. Speed to solving the problem will always beat polish.

    @spaztron64 Yeah, go to Craigslist if you want to see what most websites looked like in the 2000s. Most websites were just menu boxes on a page. None of this scrolling down forever nonsense.

    Here is the Craigslist ad for the company that hired this petition gatherer. Note: this is a subcontractor to the firm hired by CHA/CTA/Consumer Attorneys/Uber. They hire people as independent contractors. Based on the three part test in AB 5 (@LorenaSGonzalez) this is illegal. And everyone knows it. But they still hire these firms who use an illegal employment practice, one which is fraudulent, and encourages more fraud. The AG @RobBonta should be shutting all these operations down, confiscating all the signed petitions, and creating a massive cost to any organization that collects signatures with these shady firms. Firms that hire the handful of shady / monopolistic firms should fear that all their petitions will be impounded by a legal action by the state AG or a County Prosecutor if the firms they hire are breaking the states employment law. And that’s a minimum. Preferably this gets backed up by an aggressive reform. Looking at you @isaacgbryan - LFG!!

    @Jome253 I had the lite but didn’t keep it long and sold it off so no big catalog I have a 50min-1hr train ride to work so handheld is ideal, can also use during shift.. Money isn’t issue but I’ve looked on Craigslist for value but most are too used up so leaning brand new.

    @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)

    Who 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!

    @skillissuesf @dieworkwear Bruv, if you can't find a place to make a sweatshirt for $400 in the US that is the very definition of skill issue. You could probably get people willing to make them by hand with just a Craigslist ad for that kind of money.

    @13B_SWAPPED @HankHil82749816 My buddies dad would keep buying him burner cars, these ones that run but with tons of issues from Craigslist for 500-1k every few months because we’d run them into the ground, crash, etc. an alcoholic repairman lived in their shed and illegally gave him inspection stickers

  • rebelbroker

    Let me suggest that for any meeting like this where you are selling something to someone you do not know, you schedule the meeting at the local police station. Whether it is Facebook Marketplace or Craigslist or any other site, always take some minimal precautions for your safety. I have done this myself and I usually will call the police ahead of time to let them know I am doing it, just so they know what is up. The added benefit is that when you tell them you want to meet at a police station, if it is a scam, they will likely back out and you save time and trouble.

    @crusadepepe Craigslist. Get something at least 20 years old. Whatever the problem is, you can fix it yourself.

    Selling 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?

    @the_dadchef When my '77 wall oven started acting up: "Ma'am, for the cost to fix this you may as well buy a new one!" After TWO new garbage wall ovens later, I'm scouring Craigslist & Marketplace for a circa 70s-80s oven in decent shape (avocado or gold now acceptable). Ridiculous.

    @MichelleMaxwell Buy broken Cpap and Inogen oxygen concentrator machines. Repair and resell them. Really! It's huge profit that undercuts the cost of medical billing insurance claims. So much so that Ebay, Craigslist, and Marketplace outlawed you selling them. That ought to be a clue!

    @rottenmahae ...is it bad that I can immediately tell that this is the terrible book about a girl who like, went on Craiglist and decided to rp a dog for a rich guy? The one with a stolen artwork for cover? The same book that one booktuber reviewed?

    @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.

  • Bigfootpool
    Asuka, the redheaded shitposter (@Bigfootpool) reported

    @Sundance88088 @Ravious101 The police would literally not care about theft of services because they would tell you it's a civil issue when to go to court file a lien against the home for unpaid work. Which is what you're supposed to do and if you aren't some third-rate hack working off of craigslist with no license you're going to have all the documentation needed to go to court show work was done to spec, literally have paperwork from start to finish, And that case is going to last all of 15 minutes. Or, you can destroy someone's property, likely not get paid anything and ended up having to pay to have it replaced, That's assuming you weren't arrested for felony vandalism which is a very real possibility.

    if you really study zuck you’d realise that zuck’s superpower was never seeing the future. it was reacting to the present faster than anyone else. stories from snapchat, reels from tiktok, marketplace from craigslist, ai from openai. every single win was a fast copy executed at a scale nobody could match. the metaverse was the first time he tried to lead instead of follow. $80 billion later he’s shutting it down & going back to doing what he’s always done - chasing whoever’s winning right now. which at the moment is ai.

    @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

    I was thinking. Bad bunny lyrics were really that explicit. He needs shut down for putting our Spanish speaking kids in jeopardy. But I think Austin's Google account being shut down because he tried to get a bunny from craigslist is either his sickness I don't know or a problem

    @devcom1 I’m sorry for your loss. I lived with my brother for several years. He intended to buy a pit (bleh) on Craigslist for $40; it turned out to be half greyhound / half mutt. A brindle greyhound with a lab face, basically. I was across the country when Vic had to be put down. I wept.
