When my tito, a hoarder, died we ended up with a bunch of stuff that we had to get rid of since it was all essentially junk. For instance, we had to get rid of 10 pounds of popsicle sticks that he had bought for some reason. We ended up selling them on Facebook Marketplace. One potential buyer messaged us asking if our tito had licked them (ig he thought they were from actual popsicles and not just the sticks that you can find at craft stores), to which we told him that he had not… the person messaged us back and said “sorry, no longer interested then.” It confuses me to this day.

Two things about Facebook marketplace: 1. Search Mirror, the reflections are sometimes super funny 2. I went to some woman’s house to buy plants from marketplace and when she asked if I had any at home I told her they were all dead and she looked like she was gonna cry as if she was handing her children over to a murderer.

My family straight up bought a kitchen off Marketplace. A family was selling all their cabinets, stove, sink, etc for $1200. Truly the nicest part of the house lol

In Germany people often take their kitchen with them when they move. If you move into a place with a kitchen you usually have to buy it or pay extra rent for it. It's common to see whole used kitchens for sale!

One time I bought a plant from a woman and she acted like I was the police. She barely opened the door and asked me all these questions. Once I answered them because I’m not a cop (wtf) she showed me her crazy grow house in the back filled with exotic plants. Apparently the city has fined her for illegally selling plants without a license.

Most of the furniture in my house is from Facebook market place. My housemates and I shop on there religiously. One of them got a vintage 1920’s Persian rug for $20 from a lady moving into a retirement home, she just had to sell it quickly. Seriously if you look hard enough you can get the best deals. Got my first fridge, dining table/chairs and 2 couches for $50 because the guy selling just wanted them gone. They were kinda old but for poor students it’s the best!!

My mum uses Facebook marketplace religiously. She's a landscape designer and she buys plants, gardening tools, pots, sculptures, scrap wood/metal/stone, stuff like that because gardening supplies are really expensive. She goes to their house to pick stuff up but never goes inside or anything just usually in the driveway or on the street. We're from Australia though so I think it's a little different (safer?) to the US.

[@renaeparks2370]

well it would depend where in the US, this was surprising to me how much they bashed it, they live in california where there is high crime but where i live in the US lots of people use it and have no problems, most of my friends buy their first cars off of it, and my mom uses it too! i think it all just depends on where you are

When we got there, the seller and his wife showed us the chair, while also introducing us to their old, *huge,* retired race-dog, Dewey. As we began loading the chair into my car, Dewey decided that it wasn’t quite time for us to leave and proceeded to jump *into* my car. This man kept climbing from seat to seat to avoid us, and it took an embarrassing amount of time trying to get him to come out.

I actually bought my sectional couch on Facebook marketplace. The dad who sold it to my roommate and I was super cool and genuinely just your average suburban dad. Great couch - so ridiculously comfortable the only issue was when they gave us the couch they didn’t clean it out thoroughly and we’ve literally found multiple wii remotes, deck of cards, rubber ducks, so many forks, and sooooo much more. Apparently the couch was in the kids playroom lmao💀😭 just imagine carrying a couch in your apartment and the whole way down the hallway there’s shit falling out. It was funny as hell.

my boyfriend’s mom collects these weird angel chatchki’s and i found someone selling a bunch of them on facebook marketplace and we met in a walmart parking lot in broad day light and it was all good. it also helped that i was able to check the profile of the seller and she looked to be a woman in her late 60s, so i felt more safe about it.

Facebook Marketplace is a really common way to buy/sell where I live (New Zealand)! 😀 I sold my spare mattress on it last month! And they came to my house with cash, lol. I always profile people though, before I accept their offer, to see if they seem sane/safe. I've also bought off there before and gone to people's houses, they generally just leave the product in their letterbox after you bank transfer them (in NZ we have bank apps where you can direct transfer each other - noone uses cheques over here). I guess people in NZ are mostly trustworthy - in saying that, there's still some weird stuff on there... like no-one wants to buy your old socks, Karen. 🙃

[@kawaii_strong]

You say that but there are some people out there who like sweaty socks 👀 it's a thing lmao

[@NoteToLoser]

Also from New Zealand! And I've only ever heard of it being a very normal transaction on marketplace. Everyone I know has referred to buying or selling or at least browsing marketplace. Maybe it's because we were so used to the etiquette of Trademe before marketplace became a thing? Other countries don't seem to have legitimate buy and sell platforms online that are controlled and safe like Trademe

[@Breezyflower]

My husband loves FB market place. He’s bought: a truck, a car, our camper and we got a love seat off of it once.

I haven’t had a bad experience on FB Marketplace, but my sister and her ex bought a TV on marketplace. They did the right thing and met up with the people in a public, place, handed the money over, and the people literally TOSSED the TV at them (which broke it in the process) and drove off. Literally insane. Couldn’t even just hand the TV over. I’m just glad she didn’t get attacked.

[@SalEcho]

i’ve attempted to sell before and the amount of times i’ve gotten “i can’t afford this because…” and then they tell me some wild off the wall story, followed by “so if you could cut me a deal or give it to me for free that would be great.” FB MP never fails to make me laugh.

[@RealElongatedMuskrat]

I've never ventured into the depths of trying to sell on FBM but I've seen so many screenshots of conversations like that. Everybody's mom is dead or dying, their kids have been kidnapped by their crazy ex who also flipped their car on the way home and that's their only means of getting to work, so now they're also unemployed and soon to be homeless.

[@leahh1060]

I love marketplace. It’s so unhinged yet I must say I got my tv from there, my mattress, I got my fridge. Met a disaposable vape lady, and I once bought a bratz milkshake machine. In uni/when you’re moving a lot. it’s a life saver.

I didn't purchase this but I saw someone selling their mall Asian food leftovers on Facebook marketplace at 7PM during a snowstorm. They took pictures of their full to-go box and captioned it saying "You get whatever I don't eat." and priced it at $12. I found the post so funny and sent it to my friends who did not laugh.

I’ve literally bought almost all my furniture off Facebook marketplace. my roommates and I just went together. Honestly all very normal and not terrifying experiences.

[@rizzardthewise]

I've sold a laptop of mine on marketplace and I bought a majority of my basic furniture items for my first couple apartments from marketplace! As long as the seller and customer communicate well, it can go really smoothly. I always took another person with me for safety during transactions. Marketplace is a weird lawless land but it can be a good thing too!

[@ashleystephens2750]

I search Facebook marketplace all the time! I specifically use it for furniture and house decor because that kind of stuff is so expensive when moving into a new apartment! I always make sure they have posted good pictures of the product, have reasonable pricing, and communicate well with me. I typically creep on their profile too just to make sure I'm not going to be meeting with someone sketchy. I love fb marketplace, but there are definitely strange products and people on there!

[@lawr_bear]

Facebook Marketplace Story: I was actually able to find a good 1-bed apartment in South Florida by the beach for a relatively affordable rent through a marketplace listing. It wasn’t the actual listing itself but the real estate agent who was showing me that disgusting unit brought me to the unit I wound up renting just down the street.

I sell and buy things on fb marketplace and haven’t ever had a bad experience, the way y’all think of fb marketplace is how I think of Craigslist! Seedy people, weird shit being sold, kinda dangerous if you don’t meet in public etc. But on fb I’ve just bought/sold stuff to a bunch of bored suburban moms 😅 (some stuff I’ve gotten - a steamer, free moving boxes/supplies, free baby clothes, shoes, furniture. Things I’ve sold- my peloton, a baby monitor, shoes, clothes, dishes. All to totally normal and nice people 🤷‍♀️) it’s fun to make fun of though so lol do your thing queens

[@Bmilam18]

I’m a genuine huge fan of Facebook marketplace, I got my couch, a bed, a desk basically the majority of my apartment has been furnished through Facebook market place and I’ve gotten a bunch of antiques. I always make sure that the seller has a good seller rating and when I can I do contactless pickup or if I can’t I bring someone else along. My tip to everyone is that it looks crazy at first but as you search for things the algorithm learns what you like and suggests good stuff.

I've never bought stuff on fb, only sold stuff. And what you said about conversations with buyers is so true, everyone is SO WEIRD, it's like they've never interacted with a person or bought anything before. 99% of inquiries are not even serious, they'll be like "is this available? I want to buy ASAP" and then I say yes and then never hear from them again lol. Also yeah, never meet at someone's house, I always pick a gas station or grocery store to meet at.

[@deanoctis]

I am so fucking happy for you both. This is such a big career move and I know for a fact, this is gonna be amazing. Such a journey! I received some news today which wasn’t exactly the best and it’s had me worried and sick to my stomach. As soon as I received a notification saying “Violating Community Guidelines has posted their first podcast video” from Spotify, I got so happy. It really perked me up.
