25 Funny And Delusional Things Seen On The Online Ads, As Shared In This Online Group

The convenience of online marketplaces like Facebook Marketplace, Craigslist, and eBay is undeniable. They’re perfect for decluttering, snagging a deal, or finding that rare collector’s item. However, these platforms also attract a unique breed of buyers and sellers whose antics can leave you rolling your eyes, laughing out loud, or feeling second-hand frustration.

Here’s a collection of some individuals whose bizarre, entitled, or downright annoying behavior deserves to be called out—and perhaps serves as a cautionary tale for us all.

#15 No Sir, Will Not Remind You I’ve Been Holding An Item For You For 4 Days

I’m selling a few things on marketplace and this guy ask me to hold a very underpriced punching bag for him, because he won’t have his car till Friday (4 days from now). I’ve been getting a lot of messages for the punching bag, so I didn’t make any promises but the audacity to ask me to remind him made me laugh. Like no I won’t remind you I’ve been holding an item for you for 4 days, I’m the one doing the favor?! Marketplace isn’t really worth the headache tbh.

#16 Didn’t Think I’d Ever See This

Look, I can understand people fall on hard times and I’m not in this to really make money. But asking me to donate AND deliver?! If they would have asked me to donate but would pick them up, I probably would have done it.

#24 Facebook Marketplace Seller Wasted My Morning And My Gas

I found a small van I wanted to convert. The price was good for the mileage. I reached out to the seller and told them I was interested and would like to see it, and that if it was good, they likely had a sale. Seller responds with time and address for the following day. I agree to the time and thank them. Was excited that night and found it difficult to sleep. The next day the seller messages me to inquire if I am still coming. I let them know that I am on my way (1.5 hours away with traffic). When I am mere minutes away, they tell me they just sold it. Wasted 3 hours of my time and 1/4 tank of gas. Couldn’t rate the seller since they blocked me. What does one even do in this situation? Well, besides sigh and just keep on keeping on.
