buying a jeans via Amazon sucks so much. but buying it in a store that does not have my size or trying to find any in the big outlet would take so much time

Plus you have the problem of fakes, having to pay shipping for returned goods that were sold by vendors NOT using Amazon Logistics...a real spoiler, if the article came from China!

Why not use a national e-tailer like or , etc.?

Very cool. Find projects/sites/etc around you.

And I just discovered the human-made work along Cheesecake Brook that I walk along several times a week was a New Deal project! Cool!

Dazu gibbet noch ein wenig "Telezeugs":

je 2x NTBA + DSL-Splitter und 1x Fritz!Box 7140 – am liebsten als Gesamtpaket abzugeben, sonst staubt der Rest hier nur ein. Auch hier nehme ich gern Angebote an, oder gebe es einfach so weg (Abholung in München oder gegen Versandkosten).

Jetzt rennt mir bitte die Bude ein, damit der Krams endlich wegkommt – bevor mein Frauchen sich einen Bart anklebt & mit Ozelotohren zur Steinigung ruft 🙈

I’m trying to sell my tv on and had the same step by step experience as in the article. It’s interesting that last year I sold a pair of speakers and never encountered a single scammer. Now the place is rife with

Really interesting perspective from , blaming the 2008 financial crisis on the debt ceiling.

As they tell it: If we didn't have a debt ceiling, Fannie Mae wouldn't have been privatized, and wouldn't have facilitated massive investment in mortgage-backed securities, counting on the federal government to bail them out if the worst came to pass, which it did.

There's an odd social phenomenon tied to the "marketplace of ideas." It always starts with a stated intent to give voice to the marginalized, and it always ends with the establishment and protection of xenophobic hate speech against those same marginalized people.

We are broken.

Why the Congressional "MAGA" legislation to slash the IRS budget puts the US deeper in debt:

“Every dollar spent auditing these high income tax individuals would collect more than $12 in additional tax revenue”

Here's an episode of CBC's Marketplace where they test whether computer repair shops respect customers' privacy or not. Most of the shops did not respect customers' privacy.

With all of the fediverse tech from Lemmy and WriteFreely to Pixelfed and Mastodon it seems like nobody has considered an ActivityPub Marketplace.

We need to bring Craigslist into the fold.

Interesting, and surprisingly persuasive, story from Marketplace yesterday on what is the debt ceiling, the "mint the coin" proposal to solve it, etc.

When we get proper groups here, I hope there’s a marketplace like they have on Facebook. Maybe each server could run a marketplace to fund the server.

"Despite the rising usage figures and online interest, the quality of the Marketplace, much like the rest of Facebook, seems to have deteriorated in recent years.

Scottish bank TSB reported that 60% of all purchase fraud cases originated on Marketplace last year. They also found that a third of ads on the site appear to be scams. Vehicle parts, phones, shoes and clothing, and game consoles appear to be the most scammed items."

You know the oligarchs are getting annoyed about something when the Wall St Journal writes about it.
