Anyone ever purchased a sofa from Facebook

[Graceishere]

So on Facebook marketplace there are a number of people selling brand new corner sofas for around £300. You can't view them though. I just wondered if anyone had ever bought one from there and what your experience was?

Yes! I did go to see it before, and then arranged a time to pick it up.

yes I did, didnt view it before and got a man with a van to pick it up. It was only £70 so took the punt and its ace, had it 2 years now. I knew the make and model of the sofa so knew it would be good, and it's possible to get replacement covers for it so knew could do that if it was awful

Do you mean commercial sales rather then individuals?if so there's no way Id buy one without being able to see it never mind sit on it and try it out

Does anyone do that? How would you know it's comfy for you?

I have it was second hand for £100. All my furniture comes from Facebook selling. I haven’t handed any money over until I have seen the items.

You can get some genuinely lovely things from there. I have even got things for free because I could collect.
