YSaC, Vol. 587: Post the Monkey!

Need Help Posting Pictures to Craigslist? I CAN HELP Funiture!


I can help you post any pictures to your ad on craigslist.

I will even come to you and take the pictures of your items for sale.
Then Ill post your items to sell on craigslist.

If you don’t have time to list your item or you just don’t know how to post or add pictures to your posting, I can do it for you.

FOR JUST $20 YOU GET:

Big Beautiful pictures and as many as you want or need to show potential buyers the detail they need to want to buy your item.

I’m no way affiliated to craigslist, but I do use craigslist and there’s a lot of good sales but NO PICTURES to help sell the items. Most people viewing craigslist want to see pics of your items. I assure your pictures will sell your item.

Sellers!!! do not sell yourself short, if you really want to sell your item add pictures, especially yard sales, and garage sales etc.

If you need help e-mail me or call me.

[email]

###-###-#### text Msging are welcome.

“t”

I’ll be glad to help.

Example size pictures.

Example 1

[The second picture is exactly the same picture at a different resolution.]

Wow! For $20, you’ll add pictures to my Craigslist ad, something which I could do for free by myself? That’s fantastic! That’s like charging people to flag Craigslist ads! The only thing that would be more perfect would be if, after we posted this here on YSaC, someone contacted US for help with posting pictures on Craigslist.

It also raises the question: If you are trying to impress potential clients with your mad photo posting skilz, why THIS particular picture? There’s nothing like a monkey on a bedspread to say “high class commercial photography.” And there’s nothing like eating hay when you’re faint.

“‘I should think throwing some cold water over you would be better,’ Alice suggested: ‘-or some sal-volatile.’
‘I didn’t say there was nothing better,’ the King replied. ‘I said there was nothing like it.’
Which Alice did not venture to deny.”

Thanks for the link, Jessica!

    To be fair, he says he’ll help FURNITURE post pictures on craigslist, not people. And furniture does have trouble doing that, what with the lack of hands at all. And chester drawers and the armore are too busy preventing the French to do it themselves anyway.

    The ad starts with an offer to help “funiture”, but then goes on to describe awesome skilz with a camera.

    I’m left confused and disappointed. My “funiture” is in need of an intervention, especially since it has been taking a beating from the new man in my life. He’s two, and everything he touches turns sticky.

    “Funiture” is feeling used and abused, and here I thought I could get him the help he needed…all for only $20! Sigh…

    1. I have an item that I want to sell for $8
    2. I have no knowledge of how to take a picture let alone post it.
    3. I hire an enterprising ass clown for $20 to do it for me.
    4. My item sells.
    5. I’ve made $8.

          I’m getting the eponymous Fat Man’s Jerky and wireless ethernet adaptors, a combination that I find very odd and disturbing.

    I wonder if Curious George chewed his tail off when he was hung from the swingset…

      Nope. He lost his tail on the monkey bars, which is the other playground equipment that will be included. (You know, I knew people who lost their tail on the monkey bars….)

    Monkey porn is the last thing I need right now.
    I thought we were paying that other guy to block this kind of smut!

    Poor George, who knew that his experiment with the ether was just a gateway into harder drugs and harder living. Look at him now, taking low paying “modeling” jobs for amature “photographers.” Bet that breaks the man in the yellow hat’s heart.

    I like the part about using photos for yard sales and garage sales.

    So, first you stage your yard sale in advance. Then this guy comes by and takes photos of a bunch of crap spread around your yard. Then you pack it all back up, post an ad, and pull everything back out a few days later for the actual yard sale.

    Sign me up!

      You’re not getting with the program BS!!! The pictures are well worth it and are “what you NEED to show potential buyers the detail they need to want to buy your item”… That is just so obviously worth the tradeoff.
