Do people really think that I sit around waiting for them to reply. I had something for sale for £20 and they offered me £10. It’s unused and costs £40 new.
I said no. He then offered 15. I’m trying to do washing, housework etc and now I’m getting ??? Because I haven’t answered yet.
AIBU being pissed off. It’s the second time this has happened. When I haven’t replied it one minute I get question marks.

I've stopped selling and now give stuff to the charity shop. People either don't turn up or are rude on FB

I tried to sell something last week for £30. Had 5 scammers in the first two hours!

Block the rude people. No point engaging with them.

I hear you. I sold some garden furniture recently and honestly the stress of it wasn't worth the (small amount) of money I made.. people are so rude and then there are those who don't bother to turn up to collect and don't have the courtesy to let you know they don't want it. Arghhhh! I can feel the stress of it all boiling up again! 😡

I'm selling stuff currently. Someone today just messaged 'available'. Not even a hello! Just one word! Then someone else kept tagging my name because I didn't reply to the first message. A guy messaged 'hi dear' with nothing about the item. I believe most of these people are scammers anyway so I don't feel rude ignoring them!

If you agree the price the next text will be letting you know the buyers address so you can deliver the item - for free of course

I get, is this available, and then they disappear.
Also, can I pick up Friday? Then nothing.
I'm sure people do it to take the piss.
