| Craigslist
Okay this has been happening to me for the longest time, and I'm wondering if it happens to anyone else. If not, good way to collect a bunch of fails. 
Everytime I'm on Craigslist, it sets the location to Seattle. No matter how many times I set it to Vancouver, it just reverts. Every. Time. Thought it might've been my computer but it seems to happen to me wherever I go!

not just you. It saves any US city last visited once you've tried a US city. If you've only surfed on Canadian cities, then you're good! I regret checking out cars in the states! You'd think a cookie bug like this would be fixed by now!

Could be a problem with your USB/Serial Port drivers. Try to download some Linksys Logitech hardwares, and set the module to Voodoo3 speed.
After that, press Alt+154 on the numpad. This makes a smiley face like this: Ü
Smiley faces means you're happy, and happiness means more production and speed and turbo.
In conclusion, baking soda does not remove BMW cheese.

I check both the Seattle and Vancouver CL's, and I do the .ca/.org thing for both. Each is saved depending on which one I look at.

K while I'm at it, new rant:
What is it with Craigslist and people saying things like "OK i'm buying this for sure, hold this for me, I'll be there this afternoon!!!"
[few hours later]
"Nevermind I got something else. You can stop holding it for me now." (or worse yet, they just simply don't show. ever.)
-or-
They show up, and then they hit you "can you take 50 bucks off?"
I'll never complain about RS buy/sell again.

I'll never complain about RS buy/sell again. | My ads always state, "If you're serious, email your contact number. I won't waste your time so don't waste mine."
Sounds kind of douchey but it weeds out a good number of flakers.
...and +2, I just added http://vancouver.en.craigslist.ca/ to my favourites and it works fine.

I'll never complain about RS buy/sell again. | You're lucky they even communicate with you. So many will just completely forget you. And then leave you hanging for a few days. Then you'll have 3 other guys contact you asking to buy it. And then you'll wonder whether to hold and wait for the other guy or just do "first come first serve."

I always say first come first serve and I say price is always firm. If you are even short a dollar I'm not selling it. And anyone who asks a question not in this add will be ignored. Posted via RS Mobile | |
