Grim items on FB market place

[Neverplayleapfrogwithaunicorn]

Over the last few years I have seen a bewildering amount of things on FB market place. Please share your local "finds"

Today I came across a corner sofa for £250

What am I missing? It's not my style of sofa so am unlikely to pay £250 for it, but it may be someone's cup of tea, I'm not what is so noteworthy about it?

Why is it grim? Looks ok to me.

It's hard to see beause MN makes the pictures miniscule but it's covered in watermarks 🤢

Unfortunately I'm not sure this thread will work until they fix the pictures issue.

Ohh… I see the stains now. When I first looked at the photo I thought it was just velvety material with a napp.

Presumably, the person buying would steam it or have it professionally cleaned anyway? It's a very reasonable price, probably for that reason.

Must be great to be perfect.

I thought you were going to be referencing the very grubby/broken items that I often see advertised on Facebook. My SIL has the sofa you attached a photo of and it’s very comfortable, (although not to my taste either).

If you zoom in I think its covered in stains.

Oh….and now I’ve just looked closer and seen the stained cushions! I take your point OP.

You can't see the stains?

It is very stained. Looks like milk or something..

Even if the covers can be cleaned, whatever substance it is will be deep into the foam 🤢

£250 is too much. I've seen similarly used items for free.

A perfume bottle covered in glitter for £15

Classy 😄

It's not glitter, it's "crushed diamond" 😉
