Marcus M. Long (@Ol_Marcus) reportedAlso finally threw out an old TV set that I bought over 20 years ago off Craigslist. In my mid 30's I carried it into the house with no problem. At 57, I almost gave out carrying it to the curb.

Eric McCurry (@eric_mcCurry) reported@RussellCartwr18 Thanks man. I'm having trouble finding the robe by itself on eBay, Mercari, and Facebook marketplace. Might try Craigslist too

Chloe Santiago (@chloe_uncut) reported@Queendollas24 AND YOU ABOUT TO HAVE A SCARY ENCOUNTER WITH ME NEXT! I asked you before and I’ll ask one more time. Take my photos down off Craigslist. I’m not asking again. I’m showing up next time. Sick of it!!!

Perry Jia (@perryzjia) reported3/N But here's the thing: Craigslist ads get you applicants. They don't get you world-class data. That part comes down to how you treat the people collecting it. My management philosophy is simple: treat people like people. More precisely: - pay people well - make them feel like part of the mission - trust them and believe in their potential

Citizen (@afistfulofteeth) reported@MidlifeCrysis_ It still can’t be functionally equivalent at all. Consumer initiated transfers transfers work from a business standpoint or a legal stand point. If this were to happen, then Sony would be getting in the middle of sale disputes between random people. Bob down the street could agree to trade games with his neighbor Steven. Then go to initiate the transfer from Sony (or do it themselves if you think that would happen). Then the key gets transferred and what happened? Steven didn’t pay Bob!! Who would they have to go to fix this or dispute it? Sony! This is just one instance. Multiply that by millions. You have to think about the big picture. Companies aren’t going to put themselves out there to be legally liable for crackheads selling video game licenses on Craigslist.

node33 (@x_esk_x) reported@Kintakus @RobotPerson78 I hear the cost for escorts has gone up from $25 per hand as was on Craigslist to $100k on 𝕏 or 60k if in San Francisco. As long as can afford it and not fording someone unwilling to do it and threaten them with guns and extortion probably can do and gets you in trouble for hiring escorts if not CEO or billionaire as extra risk

Alex Minecan (@alexpagepilot) reportedthe ugliest product pages on the internet outsell the most beautiful ones and nobody wants to accept this craigslist is ugly. does $1B+/year. the design screams 2003. nobody cares. amazon is ugly. the product page is a wall of text, a dozen images, and bullet points in 4 different fonts. it converts higher than any custom-designed ecom store on earth the pattern: ugly pages convert because they prioritize information density over aesthetics. the buyer doesn't visit your page to admire your design. she visits to answer 5 questions: - does this solve my problem? - can I trust this store? - when will it arrive? - what if I don't like it? - is this a good price? the beautiful page answers 2 of these and hides the rest behind whitespace and animations. the ugly page answers all 5 in the first scroll. she doesn't need the page to look good. she needs the page to answer fast the stores obsessing over design are optimizing for other designers. the stores obsessing over information are optimizing for the buyer. one group wins awards. the other group makes money

SonsOfRome (@FiliRomaeAscend) reported@WexitPepe Otherwise the stuff would go to the junkyard to it’s still worth it for me. Facebook marketplace or Craigslist are the only other viable options and there are 2 major issues: 1) geographical constraints I.E. limited market 2) Everyone wants your stuff for free so you end up lowering the price just to move it. Having sold significant amounts on all platforms I prefer eBay for the smaller hard to sell locally stuff.
