I was going to sell some baby equipment that my DD has grown out of. A friend said that she had a friend who is pregnant and has no money, and could make good use of the items, and could she please have them for her friend, for free.

As I don't technically need the money for the items, I agreed. She did kind of railroad me into it really. I gave her the items, she said that her friend was delighted with them when I asked if she'd given them to her.

Yesterday I saw on a FB group that she is selling the items, which total up in value to around £500. I know what her Ebay ID is and I checked that, and she has listed them on Ebay too.

I don't know what to do. I know she is struggling financially, but I loathe the dishonestly involved here, and the assumption by her that because we are comfortable financially that it's ok to do this to me. I'm pretty upset, she is a very good friend.

Send her a message to FB saying 'Oh, that are nice items, I actually love them, may I have them for free please? I really need them back, to sell them myself, you know, they will bring me some of the money I put on them back, and I can treat my family to something nice. I am waiting for an explanation here, and it better is good because I am fuming'.
Unacceptable, get the money out of her, she has lied to you.......
