Well marketplace basically killed Craig's list, so that's one reason.
We gave away computer parts on Craigslist a few months ago. It was a no-stress transaction and the receiver was a sweet old-school computer person building a basic machine for his kids to play Minecraft. Would do again.
we should kill facebook and go back to craigskist.
if we managed to take it down for like a month, the internet would heal itself so quick.
This one irks me. I grabbed an Auto-Trader paper today as I was reminiscing about how local trader-papers used to be a thing. I got my NES and Saxophone that way. I still have one of those. -Then craigslist ended that and now that has been replaced by a website that requires membership to read the listings.
