  3. #Cars #Craigslist . . .

    So, the lease on my 2023 VW id4 Pro is expiring next month & I'm looking for another car to replace it by trolling the ads on Cragislist but . . .

    The weird thing is . . . I 've sent a couple of emails & texts to purported sellers to ask about the cars they have listed but have gotten absolutely no response whatsoever to my inquiries. 🤷‍♂️

    Are there people who place fake ads on Craigslist with no intention of actually selling anything? 🤔

  4. Wow, do I have to ditch Craigslist now? It's gotten unproductive lately in terms of sales, but now they want me to give them my phone number in order to post an ad for a used box scraper (a $300 farm implement, ffs).

    No.

    There's no option for email verification. So, they can fuck straight off.

  6. So apparently the latest #craigslist #scam is people with Indian phrasing saying they don't trust Carfax and I should buy them a crash report from some random website

    Lol

    Anyway I have a nice blue 2017 Bolt #forSale in #Seattle if you want a great electric car

    There are several platforms you can use instead of Facebook Marketplace:

    eBay – about 180 million monthly users worldwide; a classic site for both new and used items.
    Craigslist – roughly 80 million listings per month; great for local, no‑fee classifieds.
    Nextdoor – over 90 million monthly users (mostly U.S.); listings are posted in neighborhood‑specific groups and accounts are address‑verified.

    There was OpenBazaar as an ethical, fully open‑source alternative, but the project shut down🙁. I still hope for a successor, or a FOSS buy‑sell‑trade community‑driven option to emerge.

  10. CW: Fediverse infrastructure musing

    [ if you're not old enough to remember directory servers, you can skip this ]

    In all the hullabaloo about #digitalsovereignty , I'm surprised that I haven't heard proposals for public (or even shared) directory services to break away from #WalledGardens and make it easier to share information about resources like groups, forums, events, etc.

    I cringe every time I see a small business or NGO share an Instagram, TicToc or Facebook address (don't get me started about What'sApp) just because:
    - it's easy
    - uses an existing login
    - makes them discoverable

    #europe in particular should know better because some postal agencies already operate identity and payment services.
    Since governments tend to be late adopters, I have to wonder if #fediverse friendly companies like #craigslist might consider offering services to APIs the way they do for people.

    Someone please tell me this is already a thing and I just need to get out more.

  12. The box says that two people are required to assemble this grill and my plan is to prove the box wrong.

    I am impressed that it came with tools. That will save me a trip down to the garage.

    In the meantime I listed my old grill on #craigslist for $75 and someone's coming tomorrow to get it. #SayNoToMarketplace

  14. They delivered it and even carried it up the stairs for me at no extra cost. I gave the two guys $20. They were very friendly. I tried to give them my cat but they wouldn't take him.

    It's in the living room now. I don't think I'm going to assemble it today. (I need to write an article with a deadline tonight.) Other photos show the older, smaller smoker it is replacing; I just listed it on #CraigsList. That smoker cost about the same 13 years ago. #SmokingWithPellets #SuchADeal

  18. That happens to the best of us, sometimes. I think you need to drink more water, and avoid foods with too much chance of creating kidney tones. #random #craigslist

  26. Hmmm... industrial sized coffee grinder from the 1800's, very tempting to see how much they are going to ask for that thing. (not that I need one that size, lol) I dunno what you do with it. #random #craigslist

  30. Now I understand why Craigslist isn’t the place anymore where both seller and buyer are happy. Buying and selling used stuff is all about making the big bucks.
