I just had a look at one of our local pages (picked the first public one on the list) and it's awful.
Someone is selling live Pekin chicks, which I'm now really worried about because they look so fragile.
Someone else is demanding a set of internal doors, which she "doesn't want to pay a fortune for" so wants any potential seller to send her lots of photographs, measurements and condition of each door, charge her a reasonable price and deliver them to her if they don't live close enough for her liking.
Someone is using those square box frames to stick in cheap scrapbook paper, scrabble letters in words of your choice and little glittery bows or stickers to decorate the corners. There's a football one with the name "Wayne Roony" spelled out in it in wobbly scrabble squares. The 'n' in Wayne is also the 'n' in 'Roony' and they want £10 for it.
Someone else is selling a 1 Direction stationary set that looks like it came from Poundland for £10.
Worst selling experience I ever had was to a woman wanting to buy a toy I'd advertised on the Children's Centre sale for £3.00.
After a lot of weird messages from her, where she ignored all my replies and then sent the same set of messages again, she told me she would buy the toy if I threw in the bouncy chair I was advertising on the same poster. That would be the chair I was asking £35 for. Um. No.
But I did say if she bought the chair for £35 I would throw in the £3 toy for free.
In the end she agreed to meet me at the Children's Centre to look at the chair. I had to load up the car with bouncy chair, the £3 toy, and DS in his baby seat and drive all the way across town, then unload the car and carry bouncy chair, toy and DS from the surprisingly far away car park to the Centre and wait for her to turn up. She was late.
When she did arrive, in a very expensive car and clothes, she decided against buying the chair but still tried to claim the toy for free, just for turning up.
At this point I wanted to throw the toy at her and have done with it but I felt stubborn and provoked by then so I reminded her I'd said I would give her the toy if she bought the chair. As she wasn't buying the chair, I would sell her, not give her, the toy.
She made a whole production out of taking the money from her child because "the lady doesn't care that it's your money DD, and she said she would give the toy to you but now she wants you to pay for it with your own money."
