Plus on marketplace you could probably get them down to $15 if you actually send an offer and don’t just ask if it’s still available. Or if you have all those batteries already and your drill died, $15/$25 beats buying a brand new one with different batts for $140+ My dad has one of those older Dewalt drills still and the motor in it still works awesome.

One of my favorite moves on marketplace is to find something I need at a fair price close enough that I can pick it up. Then my opening message to the seller is “I’d like to pick this up between 6:30 and 7:00 this evening if that works for you.” They can then tell me someone else is already coming to get it, agree to the pickup time, or whatever.. The point is I get something I want at a fair price and no hassle for either of us. Marketplace is awesome for buyers.

I put kitchen units up for free. Had lots of time wasters. People still asked how much. I started saying £20 after a while. Still no one took them. Still have them sitting in the garage. My Dad put up a fridge for free. People asked him to deliver for free too 😂

[@kjata77]

Spot on... just hate when sellers don't take down their listings when not available any longer or try to 'bait & switch' (I'm a seller & buyer)

[@Don-xc9yj]

I dont want to mark my item as sold until I sell it but its difficult getting any response back out of the hundreds of "is this still available" messages asking for it.. let alone the angry messages "why havent you responded to my message for it yet". I just let it sit as available for a few days then mark it as sold and work my way up the list of messages until I get a response and make a sale.

[@marcellkovacs5452]

@@Don-xc9yjit’s available until someone has paid for it. I don’t reserve anything unless the person strikes me as extremely trustworthy.

And that is why I hate selling stuff on social media. I put a harbor freight lathe up for sale one time. I had just upgraded to a nicer one. They retail for like $280. I was asking $150. Decent little starter lathe to get somebody going on the cheap. After 3 weeks of that nonsense..."Does it work?" "Will you take less?" "What size is it?"...You know...stuff that was in listing...4 years later, it's still in my shop and I still use it on occasion. LOL

Tried selling a PlayStation with a bunch of games a while back. Biggest pain in the rear. People wanting it for free, or wanting to meet in an alley. Some guy never showed up. After a few weeks I just sold it all to GameStop.

[@over07ful]

This is why I told my parents to take their household items to goodwill and call an auctioneer to take the large items as they are downsizing. I sold an item on FB. The endless texting asking stupid questions was unbelievable. I now give away to neighbors or throw it in the trash.

[@liquidt3ch]

he forgot about the people that say they want it, give a time to pick it up, and then never show. I find most the of the time, when you think you've sold something, this happens

[@projectknowbull]

I hope there's a special place in hell for those people. 😂

[@timlong1462]

Literally sums up every experience I have had. I don't even attempt to sell small items on there. It's got to be an item in the $200+ range. I have to factor in my time answering all the dumb questions, and dealing with a 75% no-show rate. Anything less than that and I try to give it to somebody I know, or sell it to someone in my friend circle. I would never even consider selling something for $25 on marketplace.

[@ancientflames]

Damn a 25% show rate is pretty good.

[@Rew123]

Good point. But then you have to worry about safety if you're selling something that valuable. I don't really sell stuff online anymore. I offer it to my family and if nobody wants it, I drop it off at Goodwill.

[@tannerbaer]

Last guy had a good point. If someone say will you take a trade I always say yes, for cash.

[@steve_main]

OMG this is the most accurate depiction of what it is like to sell somthing on Facebook I have ever seen. I lose my crap when I put all the details in the ad and then I get all these questions.. Like why dont you read the fricking ad? Do you really buy stuff without reading the ad??? Also the peopel that want it but then when they ask for your address they didnt realize you live 100 miles away. Its says right at the bottom the area i am from!! BUT you are missing the biggest issue in this, he fact that people NEVER show up.. LIKE WTF PEOPLE. I absoloutly hate people of Facebook!

[@davidfitnesstech]

I get the same mess on Craigslist. I have a full description of the items with over 10 detailed pictures for each one. I get nothing but texts with stupid questions. Items I thought would take a couple of weeks to sell has taken over a year.

I still don't own a truck...

[@adamr4198]

The price is $115 (which somehow means I’m supposed to make an offer above $115) or the price too good of a deal (the item fell off of a truck). Still sometimes you do find good deals. 😅

[@Thinginator]

@@captaindishman9126As someone who recently was car shopping, almost nobody knows how to properly list their vehicles. My favorites are when they say something like “interior needs work” and provide 0 photos of the interior. Like… what does that mean!? It could mean anything from “the seat has one tear” to “there is no interior whatsoever” and I’m not driving all the way there to find out, just frigging show pictures of important details so I can decide if it’s worth considering. Or when they only show the car from one angle, poorly cropped so you can’t see the whole thing… at that point I’m gonna assume the side I can’t see is just trashed.

@YeshuaKingMessiah It only takes 1 bad spple. The estate sale (garage sale) was the main concern. That truly does bring in all kinds. Selling specific items isn't so bad, but then I find myself wasting time haggling over $5.

My favorite is: "I'll take it." "When do you want to pick it up?" "I'm leaving now. Send address." Then you give them your address. "Would you take $10?" "No, you just said you'd take it for $25 and told me you were coming to get it." And then they leave.

I think sometimes they're worse. Anyone who comes to this country from a caste system treats retail workers as sub-human, even if they themselves came from a lower class. Had a woman come to my flea market stand, grab 5 items, and held out less cash than the total for 3 of them. On her phone the whole time, wouldn't talk to me and just made faces. I just kept nodding "no" with an angry face until she finally caved and put 2 things back. Also they think it's acceptable to open your boxes and examine items without asking or any intent to buy, then either cram it all back in the box incorrectly with dirty hands, or just leave it out in a mess.

[@thomaswaller3429]

Holy hell that was accurate. There's also the reverse of this...people selling items at retail prices which are obviously used.

[@DeAthWaGer]

Used, incomplete, and comes with random parts that don't go with it. "I think this is for it"... No, that is a wrench for an orbital sander, not a drill chuck.

I still sell my stuff on ebay, as I've been doing for many years. Either it sells or it doesn't. Nobody asks me any dumb questions, nobody posts any dumb comments. Usually it sells and usually for more than I demanded (I always sell as an auction but I'm happy to go with the starting price). And sure I offer shipping, not a big deal as long as the other person pays for it. I always have shipping boxes lying around from my own mail orders, just put the stuff into a box, fix it with some tape or add some old papers for stuffing, print the shipping badge myself (ebay offers me to buy one online and print it at home, it gets deducted from what the other person has paid, which included the shipping fees anyway) and drop it next time I go grocery shopping or at a gas station when filling up or hand it over to the delivery guy when I get an order myself.
