Stupid Facebook selling.

[VivaLeBeaver]

Real post I've seen this week.

"Got some cheap stuff for sale if you want anything"

Cue 20 posts along the lines of;

"Have you got a patio heater hun?"

"No sorry"

Have you got a wheelbarrow?

No, haven't got a wheelbarrow.
Xx

3 days later the thread is still going strong. 20 people have been disappointed that the seller doesn't have what they want and the seller has made no effort to make any suggestion what she does have.

This is brilliant
Just had a look at my local one, a couple of gems include 'full tattoo kit, everything you need to do tattoos, needles, inks, 1 gun, gloves and lots more' and '2 blackberry 9800 1 needs connecting to a computer to update software so won't turn on and other the touch has gone and sim readers broke offers'
Surprisingly no offers for either of these

Star Whores

At first glance i thought the teddy bear was a penis

MarthasHarbour So did I! I think it's the positioning of the feet...

This thread has just inspired me to delete my most recent post on my local selling site.

I was offering the covers from our baby car seat- the seat was too old to be used safely but the covers might be useful for someone as a spare set with a sicky baby. Decent nick, complete, in red so nice neutral colour, for free. No pic but if you have the seat they go on chances are you know what it looks like and how hard is it to google?

So first reply asked for the colour. Read the post...

Second reply arranged a time to collect and didn't turn up. Blocked and reported to admin.

Third reply asked for a picture.

Fourth reply posted their own advert...

Bollocks to it. It's all going to the tip. (Unless anyone here wants a FREE set of maxi-cosi cabriofix covers in red?... )

I’ve just had a look on my local one. I foresee the entire day being wasted now

“Hi I was just wondering if any one had any free kitchen stuff ie fridge washing machine ovens micro wave many thanks”

“Stepper machine wanted”

The ones that really annoy me are the photos of clothing with no information, so someone then asks “what size?” “medium” “Thanks, too small”.

“2 boxes of 24 persil gel tablets £ 3 each” She’s then says she’s got 4 boxes and is asked if she’ll sell all 4 for a tenner as “that’s all I got on me” “No”

“Size 5 paid £25 offers” “5” No, I was looking for £10”

“Louis Vuitton bag £25 brand new “

“need a nice going out dress or outfit can anyone help size 14 thanks in advance xxxx”
“Got this says size 22 but it will fit a 14 as just a little to big for me and I'm a 12 £12.50 bnwot x”
“its lovely how will it fit if its a 22 lol x”
“It's a tiny bit big for me on the arms and I'm a 12 lol it says 22 but it's like a 14 x”
“ahh ok u got n e thing else x”
“no x”

The best post on mine at the moment is someone selling some worms because her "breaded dragon died n a shame 2 go 2 waste".

I thought breaded dragon was funny enough - until someone replied saying they were selling a "beaded dragon" .

I don't know which is rarer, breaded or beaded.

Oh, I shouldn't have started looking .

Another post:

"wonted front door".

Bit drafty at the moment is it?

Hours of guilty pleasure on these sites, always the "hun" people being "greatful" and of course the "looking for anythink (insert colour/style/size here)"
Fav today is the lady "looking for a hamster cage with wheel for my daughter" .... is that even legal :)
Our town page is even more fun, no matter what the gripe, the consensus is always "F**in discustin, the counsel shud do somethink" Privately owned shopping centre, privately run car parks, no matter what, it's "The counsels" responsibility :)

breaded dragon coming soon to Iceland no doubt!

Ours is just full of nosey feckers

NF - 'Whats going on down XX road, loads of Police cars
Cue twenty posts of 'DK'

Don't even know what to make of this one

Thanks

Someone put a post on my local site this morning that went something like this.

woman - wanted, anything free
man - I have a pile of shit, what's your address?
Woman provides address to whole of facebook.
why would you put your address for all to see, does she really not realise this man is offering her actual shit!

Brand new Jimmy Choo purses just gone up on mine. Only £15. Choice of colours.

I loooove selling sites! Provide so much entertainment. I love when people try to gloss over the fact that they are selling Primark clothes, by labelling them as "gawjus Atmosphere top". Err, no love, that'll be Primark.

Also, just seen this on a local page. Goodness me...

I was selling my pram on a Facebook page. Politely with photos and fill description obviously.

Lady arranged to have it. Turned up. Looked at it and said "well this isn't what you advertised. Don't you think that's a but out of order?"
Me "um yes it is. And there were lots of photos"
Her "well I assumed it was the newer version which comes with 'blah blah blah'. I'm going to report you to the admins"
Me "ok. Fine do that then. I think you'll find I'm only selling what I advertised. If it was the newer deluxe version I would have said so. Plus the extras would have been in the photo"

She then offered me a fiver for it and left in a huff when I said no!

What a cheek!

The new pram and pushchair obsession phenomena really comes into play on these sites. My neighbour is a lone parent, low income and struggling but recently got a loan and bought a pram for 300 pounds. Then she decided to sell it on Ebay and was livid when it fetched ten pounds!

She is now buying another pram somehow despite already having three!

And we have a winner!

Had to take. Picture as I think it would look made up if I typed that out.

Is it a different language ?

Mind. Blown! Rainicorn what do we think guns benwell means?!

"someone sell me an iphone 5s or 5c or even 6. what you got?"

Manners!

Dishwasher wanted, must be nearly new, able to deliver and be free

Cheeky bugger

Benwell is an area in Newcastle, so that is english, unsure of the rest.

Just checked my local one ad this is near the top.

"A bit of a strange request, but I'm looking for a life size ish cut out of elvis, is any1 selling something like this? Please x"
