  @SlumRNA_Dog VB Knives: “Can’t believe anyone would have a problem with this. Some real losers on this site. Making White kids sell peepee rugs to random violent nonwhites on Craigslist is a great way to build character and save up for code school.”

  @namyakhann If design gets me a customer vs not then hey I am all for great design. Most early adopters don’t care. If the problem is hair on fire they will use even Craigslist

  @LibOrNormal Well he needs to expand his skills and get a side job. All of us had to work weekends even if it was mowing a lawn, putting in a fence or fixing a car for extra cash to pay the bills. Plus not to mention selling anything we didn't want on craigslist if we had an extra bill to catch up on. Now for some who don't know, the bar is the best place to find some side work. If you have some side skills. People are always looking for a hand to build something, fix something or even do yard work.

  @PokeCardsDaily Yes but a this has always been a problem with high value items on marketplace/Craigslist. Should never have been trying to move a black label on marketplace especially in person. And if you think thats the only way you can get a sale done, do it INSIDE a police station or no deal

  Buy Right, Avoid Fireworks Scams Fireworks sales scams often spike around the Fourth of July, featuring fake websites, illegitimate online marketplaces (Facebook, Craigslist), and fraudulent "clearance" deals. Scammers often demand cryptocurrency, gift cards, or apps like Zelle/Venmo, providing no contact info. Inspect products for fake "safe and sane" seals and avoid unlicensed roadside stands. Common Fireworks Sales Scams: Fake Social Media: Scammers create social media posts advertising cheap fireworks or "after-holiday" clearances, specifically stealing payment information. Illegal Online Marketplaces: Fraudulent sellers operate on platforms like Craigslist and Facebook Marketplace, often selling illegal or nonexistent products. Misleading Product Packaging: Products may be disguised, such as canister shells packaged to look like different, or sometimes, lower-quality items. Counterfeit "Safe and Sane" Seals: Sellers may use fake, non-genuine safety seals, particularly on fireworks that are illegal in certain areas. Unlicensed Roadside Stands: Temporary, un-permitted stands may sell illegal or dangerous products. How to Avoid Scams Verify Sellers: Only buy from reputable, known fireworks retailers. Secure Payment Methods: Avoid paying with cryptocurrency, gift cards, or apps like Zelle, which offer little protection for fraud. Check Local Laws: Ensure the fireworks are legal in your area; illegal fireworks are often sold via illicit channels. Avoid "Too Good To Be True" Deals: Extremely low prices or "exclusive" sales are red flags. Inspect Before Buying: Check for legitimate packaging and seals. Further insight into potential scams associated with larger vendors, consumers have reported issues with high minimum spend requirements for discounts as under covered by Ed Haury of United Fireworks.

  PRAIRIEVILLE, LA MAN ARRESTED AFTER TRYING TO TRADE HIS WIFE FOR A USED BOAT, $400 CASH AND A BAG OF FROZEN CATFISH GONZALES, LA — Because apparently Craigslist was down, a 54-year-old man from Prairieville, LA wandered into a Bass Pro Shop yesterday morning and attempted to negotiate what he confidently described as a 'reasonable trade.' The store associate stated the man wanted to trade his wife of 23 years for a slightly questionable 14-foot aluminum fishing boat and $400 cash. Authorities say Rodney Thibodeau approached the boat counter at exactly, 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, and a bag of frozen catfish. Bold strategy. Shockingly, the employee did not immediately ring it up. Rodney then presented a printed document titled 'WIFE-FOR-BOAT TRANSFER AGREEMENT' (yes, in all caps, to ensure the legality of the contract). Highlights from the document include: A 3-day return policy. A notarization by his cousin who authorities stated is absolutely not a notary. A 'best features' section listing 'doesn’t snore very often, able to clean a bass & can siphon gas from a truck.' An 'as-is condition disclosure,' because he wanted to 'keep things honest.' 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 law enforcement. When deputies arrived, things only got better: Denise reportedly responded with a deeply philosophical, 'Where the hell is he', followed by 'I'm going to kill him' Rodney insisted the trade was 'fair market value as the boat, again, did have a hole in it.' Both were taken into custody. Rodney for attempting to sell a human being and Denise for threatening ****** injury against Rodney and 7 other Bass Pro Shop associates. Denise has since filed for divorce, citing what legal experts are now calling 'the boat thing.' When asked for comment, Rodney stood by his decision, stating, 'Look man, it came with a trolling motor mount.' 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.' I have to believe there's a lesson somewhere in there, but I've not been able to suspend my disbelief long enough to figure out what it might be.

  @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.

  @UziCryptoo Craigslist has one bedroom apartments and even houses for $6-800 in LA. The latest generation cries more than any before. "Get up, get knocked down but, always get back up." -Mom.

  @PrimNomoPrimo @Ahmadansari2233 iPhone 3G is vintage 2008 tech—won't work on modern cellular (3G shut down), only WiFi for nostalgia or collector use. Check Craigslist: one listed in Hurst (Dallas area) for $50, white 16GB unlocked, minor back crack, pick up only. Also scan Facebook Marketplace Dallas, eBay "iPhone 3G local pickup", **** shops, or used spots like Recharge Electronics on Alpha Rd.

  @Nachtel_Hussar My car is fine, it just is inefficient because it’s old. My car broke down two years ago, I searched Craigslist and fb for weeks prior bc I knew it was coming, went to see the Audi, it works fine. Are you arguing that gas is NOT too expensive?
