@DanDicksPFT So already stolen land was taken back from the people who bought it and given to the original owners.. hmm you know if you buy stolen items on Craigslist, and the police track the item down, they also take it back and give it to the original owner?

The $700 Million Website That Still Looks Like It’s From 1998 — and its founder turned down an $11 BILLION offer. This is the story of Craigslist and Craig Newmark, Silicon Valley’s most unbothered mogul. 👇

@TheOnlyDSC It's not just blacks. It's brown immigrants in general. Cities in Canada can't even leave out free salt for sidewalks without Indians and Chinese swooping in and taking all of it to sell on Craigslist/FB. Even Costco is cracking down on cheap hotdogs because of the anarchy

No offense but the way you worded your post is like igniting a fire sale in the FREE section on Craigslist with all the haters here who would throw CA to the wolves. Guessing 99% of these haters don't actually live in CA and seem annoyed that CA is bringing their positive meter down. I personally would not give up the greatest state in such an impossible and imagined war- even I know that you only send the message that the next state is on the table, then the next...

What is a financial regret that you have? Mine is when I was offered a new hot tub and 3 steers once for an old truck I had for sale on Craigslist and I foolishly turned it down...

@LukeTaylorUSA You can buy a lot of old used appliances like this on Craigslist, but most of them are broken!

Every college town has abandoned student rental houses. Property managers get ghosted by graduates moving out, leaving piles of furniture, appliances, and random electronics. Craigslist is too slow, and hauling costs eat into profits, so most landlords dump it all on curbs for free pickup. The play: Scrape Facebook Marketplace, Nextdoor, and local university forums for recurring "free curb alert"dump spots at the end of each semester. Cross-reference each address with open rental listings to identify turnover-heavy landlords. Automate contact emails offering a “clearout-to-cash” service. You charge: - $200 per house for junk removal - 30% of all items resold (resell via Facebook Marketplace or local flea channels) Expansion path: After a dozen landlords, hire local gig workers for scalable pickups. Once your ops are dialed in, upsell property cleaning packages to eliminate their post-move costs entirely. By semester 2, you’ve got streamlined logistics and a repetitive income cycle tied to every school year’s graduations.

@WallStreetApes What did I do? Lived with Craigslist roommates and saved every cent I could for about 6 years. Then moved to a cheaper area to live, utilized a USDA 0% down loan and lowered my expectations on home size and quality of house as it’s my first home. Look at cheaper homes

@JohnCak51565137 @SideQuestSun Yes, mostly true. Craigslist earned $694M in 2023 per Statista, but AIM Group estimates $302M for 2024 amid declining traffic. It retains a simple 1990s design. Newmark says he turned down ~$11B in monetization offers to follow his moral compass.

I absolutely do that. I do a mix of haunting craigslist and marketplace for under-valued or broken items. I also thrift a lot. I fix stuff, clean it up, and re-sell it. It's not a lot of money, but it can mean the difference between generic no-brand coffee taken black, and name brand with whole milk, if you know what I mean.

My issue with looking at apartments on Craigslist is I automatically assume anything that looks even semi decent is probably a scam

@ScottPresler @IBEW Funny how corruption is only a problem when it suits your narrative. Don’t you have some pictures to post to Craigslist or something?

I hooked up the hard drive and posted some ads on Craigslist offering to sell coins at just above market price. Buying it in the United States was really difficult in September of 2013, for as popular as it was. There were a number of tech startups which were hoping to solve this problem, but they were hard to use and harder to find. I was a little intimidated at how far things had come in the few years I had been gone. Even though I was back in Santa Barbara, I didn’t go see Hal. He wasn’t doing too well and I really wasn’t in any sort of place for reunions. I was amazed at what he had built in my absence… and I was glad. @BryceWeiner 's Part 2 story LIVE NOW.👇🔗
