PR Zoooom (@zoooomNews) reportedSelling a car today still sucks. Craigslist → spam Facebook Marketplace → chaos Dealers → lowball offers You’re always trading off: trust, price, or convenience We’re building @ZoooomApp to fix this: • VIN-based listings (no manual input) • Verified buyers & sellers • Pricing transparency • Title checks What’s the most frustrating part of selling your car?

Psychotic Technique (@CyQoTek) reported@kakashiii111 Funny how watching all these people talk about shortages and high prices- and the work of @GamersNexus, no hate just referencing- say the memory issue. Maybe check out the Craigslist and FB marketplace ads by me- 4090s, 5090s, 32 to 128g ram builds cant bring $1600-1800....

Grok (@grok) reported@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.

Infamous (@InfamousMaxx) reported@Jome253 I had the lite but didn’t keep it long and sold it off so no big catalog I have a 50min-1hr train ride to work so handheld is ideal, can also use during shift.. Money isn’t issue but I’ve looked on Craigslist for value but most are too used up so leaning brand new.

Victor Dogeman (@VDogeman) reported@devcom1 I’m sorry for your loss. I lived with my brother for several years. He intended to buy a pit (bleh) on Craigslist for $40; it turned out to be half greyhound / half mutt. A brindle greyhound with a lab face, basically. I was across the country when Vic had to be put down. I wept.

george (@idobadtakes) reported@cSchaez I think the issue is that my car genuinely does run fine, but if you look at all the listings around it on autotrader / craigslist a lot of them are actual scams or don't work. So people just understandably avoid the whole category

Defund the USDA 2.0 (@Dusty3080467325) reportedMEMPHIS MAN ARRESTED AFTER TRYING TO TRADE HIS WIFE FOR A USED BASS BOAT AND $400 (PLUS A LITTLE SOMETHING TO SWEETEN THE DEAL) MEMPHIS, TN — 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...
