  @KosinskiKen I’m sick and tired of people shoving their ****** crosses down everyone’s throats but that don’t stop you. Also homie you have a bad case of the gay face and you look like you smell like Craigslist.

  Roofer: SEO doesn't work. Me: Looks at their website. The design structure looks like a 2012 Craigslist ad, the "Call Now" button is broken on mobile, and the content is just a wall of generic text copied from somewhere, idk

  MEMPHIS MAN TRIES TO TRADE HIS WIFE FOR A BASS BOAT, SAYS ‘FAIR DEAL” Because apparently Craigslist was down, a 54-year-old Memphis man wandered into Bass Pro Shops on Tuesday morning and attempted to negotiate what he confidently described as a “fair market trade”: his wife of 23 years… for a slightly questionable 14-foot aluminum fishing boat and $400 cash. Authorities say Ronnie Buckley-Jenkins approached the boat counter at exactly 11:14 a.m. (because of course he did), pointed at a boat priced at $4,200, and asked, “What would it take to walk outta here with that one?” When the associate gave him the price, Ronnie countered with a package deal that included: His wife, Denise $400 cash A bag of frozen catfish “to close the deal” Bold strategy. Shockingly, the employee did not immediately ring it up. Ronnie then stood at the counter for 41 minutes… just marinating in confidence. During that time, he presented a printed document titled “WIFE-FOR-BOAT TRANSFER AGREEMENT” (yes, in all caps, because professionalism). Highlights from the masterpiece include: A 14-day return policy (because customer satisfaction matters) A notarization by his cousin… who is absolutely not a notary A “best features” section listing “doesn’t snore” and “can clean a bass” An “as-is condition disclosure,” because we’re keeping things honest A checkbox marked “VERY GENTLY USED” (sir…) Meanwhile, Denise was sitting in the truck outside, completely unaware she had been bundled into a clearance deal next to a boat with a hole in the hull. The Bass Pro employee did what any reasonable human would do: pretended to “check with a manager” and immediately called the police. When deputies arrived, things only got better: Denise reportedly responded with a deeply philosophical, “He WHAT.” Ronnie insisted the trade was “fair market value” The boat… again… had a hole in it The employee was later offered a $50 gift card for surviving the interaction Denise has since filed for divorce, citing what legal experts are now calling “the boat thing.” When asked for comment, Ronnie stood by his decision, stating, “It came with a trolling motor.” Denise, however, offered a slightly different perspective: “I have a job. I have a HOME. I did not sign up to be traded like a dented canoe.” Somewhere in Memphis, a Bass Pro employee is still staring into the middle distance, wondering how their day went from selling fishing gear to rejecting a human barter system straight out of 1823…

  @TheCarolineMc Unfortunate. Check the ads on Craiglist for cheap scooters and hunt the guy down... he's probably the only thief in town.

  @ohgoshimsam @pokimanelol @bigmonkeong 1. Why you respond to this so late? I didnt' even remember this conversation LOOL 2. Still no. If I try to haggle the price of the bike I found on craigslist down 20 bucks I'm being manipulative by definition but I'm not a predator. Manipulating people does not inherently make you a predator. Nobody uses the word like that

  🤔💭People forgetting $eBay already had one of the nastiest corporate PR scandals in tech history. Federal case.DOJ involvement. Former employees pleading guilty over harassment campaigns against critics in Massachusetts. Surveillance. Threats. Creepy deliveries. Fake Craigslist posts. Whole thing sounded unreal. So now RC starts publicly cooking management, trolling seller experience, mocking culture, gets suspended… and internet immediately starts reposting old headlines again. 😭 Bad timing doesn’t even begin covering it. Narrative went from: “haha meme CEO posting socks” to: “why does every new controversy keep connecting back to older culture problems?” Online momentum moves FAST once people start linking patterns together. 👀

  @frecklequeen45 I buy too many farm animals that’s my issue. One minute my life is happy next minute I bought a donkey off Craigslist.

  @Thedude69750960 @bradleyryder @Cryptoboyy_Aji I did NOT have a "chance." I clawed success out of the rocky ******* ground. People make their own "chance." My fiancé and I rented an in-law quarters for $500 a month. It was ONE ROOM! So we slept and crapped right next to the kitchen. We had my pickup and a banged up scooter we got off Craigslist. Most times we took the scooter. Fun times. My fiancé waited tables and I taught piano lessons afternoons and nights, which paid the bills but still didn't offer much to save. So I went to a hard money lender (which means an exhorbitant interest rate and one year to pay it back - or you get your shins broken. But no credit check.) and bought wrecked houses, fixed them up, and flipped them. It was grueling work which cost me blood, sleep, and in the end a f'd up back. But we saved enough to buy our OWN wrecked house and fixed it up. Again grueling. We had to use the gas station bathroom for a months while we rebuilt the plumbing in the "new" house. Eventually, we started a new business and phased out the piano lessons and waitressing. Now we have four kids, and life is golden. Opportunity doesn't just fall in your lap. You have to fight and claw and dig for it. But it hurts. It's much less painful to sit around making lousy excuses.

  On the last day of Q4, Salesloft posted a "free lawn mower" ad on Craigslist with my Head of Sales cell phone number. He got over 100 calls. It was a nasty tactic, almost ruined our quarter, and I wish I would have thought of it. It was 2017. Over half of Outreach’s business was SMB and transactional — small deals, fast cycles, the last day of the quarter doing 30% of the month. Mark Kosoglow was on the phone closing those deals. Or trying to. Every other call was someone asking about the lawn mower. It took us six hours to figure out what was happening. One rep checked Craigslist on a hunch and there was the ad. Mark's name. Mark's number. Free lawn mower, come pick it up. We couldn't take it down. It wasn't his ad. So Mark spent most of the day distracted and pissed. That night our team huddled. Michelle Obama was everywhere then — "when they go low, we go high." One of my execs pushed hard for this approach. I agreed. We didn’t respond. That was the wrong ******* call. When business is two guys fighting in a phone booth with a knife, you are always at war. Salesloft threw a good punch. It got us off our feet a little bit. No impact to the quarter, but definitely made it harder than it should. And most importantly it got us talking about them internally. And getting in your head, is free competitive real state. What should we have done? Get right back at them but harder! Hire away their best rep with access to their top accounts. Buy out their contracts. Hire their best engineers. Attack their customer base with all their shortcomings. Profile all their churned customers on targeted ads. Infinite possibilities to respond and a golden opportunity to take this affront as a rallying cry for the team to go take market share. ”When they go low, we stomp on them.” - that’s a better slogan Your job as a startup leader is not to take the moral high ground. The job is to win.

  @hostbodyhan I find the best cars on Craigslist, beware anything that’s been on the market for too long. Test drive everything, corner at slow and medium speeds with the windows down to listen etc - Good luck!

  @malovvave I'll give them a pass on this one just because if you've ever sold a vehicle on Craigslist or FB Marketplace it's like wading into a conglomeration of short bus graduates. So I'll pretend he's waiting for someone not crazy and then will walk down to a reasonable price.

  @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.

  @TheLastKekker If Facebook marketplace goes down will Craigslist take its place?
