  • Has_hazee Hass the Hurricane (@Has_hazee) reported

    Do younger #millennials and #genz know about #Craigslist? Or was it just for early born millenials back then , and has now started to die down as we enter 30s ..

  • MIveyDirector Ivey 🇺🇦 (@MIveyDirector) reported

    @MeachamDr @RonFilipkowski What the what? Maybe since they shut down the personals in Craigslist these party girls have found a new way to advertise?

  • neveralarch Never a Larch (@neveralarch) reported

    @fascination_ex Ohh I'm thinking like.... Minimus is facing pressure from his aristocratic house to settle down with a good conjunx who can run the estate. Desperate to avoid any arrangements, he posts an ad on space craigslist looking for someone who can help him thoroughly ruin his reputation

  • nihil_ad_rem Just Elizabeth, II 🇺🇦🇺🇸 (@nihil_ad_rem) reported

    @JaimePersists You didn’t have any issues with Craigslist?

  • jp247 James Park (@jp247) reported

    @Avis #DontRentFromAvis. 21 days after original post about the terrible, Avis is AMAZING at giving me the runaround. I have had better exchanges with Craigslist agreements than AVIS. $10+ million salaried CEO, and now I see how he gets the money. BBB is next for the Avis scammers.

  • UsabilityPeople The Usability People (@UsabilityPeople) reported

    @Red_Web_Design Ever heard of Craigslist? This is the problem w “modern" web design & “Bootcamp” designers People don’t leave because of poor visual design They leave because the site doesn’t match their mental model, or workflow Analogy: Wow a great looking car, oh, bummer no transmission

  • JosephDesrosi14 Joseph Desrosiers (@JosephDesrosi14) reported

    To craigslist can you please tell me why everytime i edit my post i have to give a phone number don't you think that is stupid please fix the problem

  • dannyman Danny Howard 🌻 (@dannyman) reported

    I hate it when I Google a technical problem and the top hit is Reddit. Reddit is like the Craigslist of Stack Exchange.

  • CaucasianHonger Caucasian Honger (@CaucasianHonger) reported

    @NickAddison77 Pretty much everything I've got came from either eBay or Reverb at a far better price, even the stuff that was brand new. I have my issues with Reverb, but there's not really another option. Craigslist people are all high and overvalue all their ****.

  • MsStarr7 Ms.Starr (@MsStarr7) reported

    @despinne @Keck553 Thankfully no. We don't sell at actions. However, if they crack down on backyard flocks (about half are for my neighbors, others will be on Craigslist), it will affect me.

  • mattwensing Matt Wensing 🐙 (@mattwensing) reported

    How can consumer banks get away with such ugly websites? Why do people use Craigslist even though it has the UI it does? Why do people continue to use telecoms with terrible service? Not all weaknesses are Achilles heels.

  • 4elix Aelix (@4elix) reported

    @willsmithaf @Apple I went from a Craigslist 2013 MacBook Pro that I didn't expect good when purchasing, broken keyboard, lmao so like 7 years later I ordered a 14 inch 1TB since I'll probably have this thing for 4+ years. I love it, its so pretty...major speaker/screen upgrade for me omg

  • FThaeta Delta-P Crab (@FThaeta) reported

    @lordvictor How else am I supposed to get used parts from some dumb teenager that doesn't know what he's selling?This is how wealth"trickles down" amongst car enthusiasts. 1. Dumb rich kids buy new. 2. Crash. 3. Sell parts to rural hicks on craigslist. 4. ???? 5. Hicks build cheap racecar

  • JonathanHulen Jonathan Hulen (@JonathanHulen) reported

    @FinanceTactics @Budgetdog_ Don’t be scared of high mileage cars if they’ve been maintained. A few years ago I bought a 20 year old corrola for $1400 on Craigslist. I drove it for 6 months and sold it for what I paid for it. It never broke down.

  • unommin Anna Nommin (@unommin) reported

    A close friend told me that he knew something was going to go down in DC yesterday because there were ads in Craigslist to pay people to come and protest at a certain time

  • RealTrump2020_ VeryStableGeniusTrump2️⃣⏺2️⃣4⃣🍊 (@RealTrump2020_) reported

    Hey @elonmusk, can you please buy Craigslist and fix the search so that it shows you items that you actually searched for instead of whatever the hell it's doing now? Thanks in advance, Humanity 🙄

  • KindKinkster 💚 Kin(18+) / fae/they / Trans Lives are Stellar (@KindKinkster) reported

    @ShockisSheep There you go! That's already a big help Looking on Craigslist can work and possibly be cheaper but only if the people selling agree to meet at a mechanic shop, some will even look over a used car for free to estimate fix. Fold down seats or a hatchback are cheaper usually!

  • Maciasmichael Michael Macias (@Maciasmichael) reported

    Lot cars junkyards just need new fans ****** rigging. Wire get oxidation no voltage slow motors idk. I can get cars Craigslist 600 ***** rug um wires every drive Vegas back forth jedi skill

  • GVMNTCHS GVMNTCHS (@GVMNTCHS) reported

    @ChristianGulden @UriCobalTwitch No. I said normal living situation. I seen an ad on Craigslist and put down a deposit. Cry harder.

  • AlderfireBBQ Alderfire BBQ (@AlderfireBBQ) reported

    Finally think I’m done with the @GMGrills DB prime. Can’t fix the crazy temp swings or the set point issues. Dealer is no help either. It will be hitting Craigslist this week.

  • Clonestwo Clone.two 🧙‍♂️ (@Clonestwo) reported

    What got you into #btc. My first purchase of #btc was robbed off a person from Craiglist. Still remember it like yesterday, I tracked him down as he left too many personal info open to the public. He was arrested in 2010. Still here now and will be tomorrow.

  • wootnik765 wootnik fine foods company (@wootnik765) reported

    @rexamillion82 "down to 400 or so" when I bought my hi-fi system off craigslist, the guy threw in like 70 albums, but they're all old dad rock that I want nothing to do with I've bought maybe 6 or 7 albums of my own since

  • takestime2build assassin (@takestime2build) reported

    @wasphyxiation It would be funny and constructive to adopt pit bulls being given away on places like Craigslist and then taking them to animal control to be put down.

  • mrlunchmoney mrlunchmoney 🇭 🇧 (@mrlunchmoney) reported

    I hate all the scammers out there on FB marketplace, Craigslist, etc... get a life...stop trying to scam everyone...@elonmusk can you do something about this...you seem to fix a lot of things.

  • AelinaChatysse Aelina ✨ (@AelinaChatysse) reported

    Today was leg day at the gym & my dog just walked across them while I was laying down 🫠 I almost posted him on craigslist.

  • CullingSongs CullingSongs (@CullingSongs) reported

    A round of applause for Craigslist, who has ignored the industry trend of constant revision and redesign and opted to keep their site as terrible as it was 15 years ago.

  • RanchSkywalker SkywalkerRanch 🔜SummerCAP (@RanchSkywalker) reported

    Literally nothing makes me as unfathomably horny as an obscenely soggy diaper. NOTHING. Like, I have contemplated posting ads on craigslist just to have a bunch of random men let me suck their ***** as I rub my squishy diaper and piss down the back of it as I swallow their loads

  • bclever_nft bclever | (buh-lock-ay) (@bclever_nft) reported

    @serpin_taxt @moonbirds @proof_xyz is that some mandingo from craigslist coming to lay it down while you watch from a chair crying?

  • SheDreamsInTeal Elizabeth B (@SheDreamsInTeal) reported

    @youmatter0125 PadMapper is good for *basic* listings but you still have to email/call for accurate prices. For roommates I used to always use Craigslist- but of course, use caution and always meet up with potential roommates before signing anything/putting down $$$

  • Ollieeatsbrains Ollie (@Ollieeatsbrains) reported

    @Danfriedz Why sell them at gamestop? That's a terrible idea. What did he get? Five bucks in store credit? Sell them through Facebook marketplace, or Craigslist.
