To save the rest of the online world the effort of digging and research, this exclusive group has collected screenshots of these posts. Some of these include hilarious interactions between people, which may also make you question the current state of humanity.
We’ve collected a handful of images from the group to compile a fun list for you. Enjoy!

“Will Launch About 35 Feet”

After having her first one, my sister told me, "It's normal to want to throw your baby out the window." My sister-in-law confirmed this. It's a thin line between impulse control and a catapult.

Facebook Marketplace is one of the go-to e-commerce platforms today. As of September 2024, it had an average of 1.2 billion online shoppers and 250 million sellers worldwide. At the time, 77.7% of Facebook shoppers had purchased merchandise on Marketplace, 16% of whom were regulars.
The amount of traffic and potential buyers may explain why people continue to use this platform despite the issues portrayed in the screenshots on this list.

If they are not benign and metastasise the common diagnoses are : a. it is at stage 4 with no symptoms and you only have weeks or a few months to live; b. it has spread to your spine and you could be in for a long and extremly painful end; or c. we found it early and the prognosis is that surgery and chemotherapy will save you. Suggestion: if benign, get them checked and removed asap!

I hope you're joking, because air filled tires were a thing since 1888 and were invented even earlier. And coiles springs are in use since 1700s.

Yeah, right. People really do stuff like this?? (Not on FB so I wouldn't know.) Is it a joke or are they fishing for suckers??
Given some of the unpleasant experiences some buyers have had with Facebook Marketplace, it is understandable to question its safety. However, experts say there isn’t a cut-and-dry answer.
According to AI and software security veteran Steven McKeon, the high volume of activity makes it difficult to track scammers, who continue to create fake accounts. However, he says Facebook Marketplace is safe enough overall.
“If you stay within their ecosystem and use their payment methods that are built into the platform, I would say yes,” McKeon told Reader’s Digest.

It's free, but you can bet someone is going to ask the poster for free delivery, too
Since many items posted on Facebook Marketplace come with an enticing price tag, it’s easier to fall for deals that turn out to be scams. To be safe, cybersecurity expert Dr. Zulfikar Ramzan advises steering clear of posts that are too good to be true.
In the same interview, he told Reader’s Digest that the same precaution applies to buyers eager to complete a purchase without seeing the product. This may be a way for scammers to lure a seller into a fraudulent transaction.

Bro, No Low Balls. I Know What I Got
Nice Beast Ludo 9 months ago
They had that at the fair this year. It was really scary. It's basically one of those rides that you stand up on the sides and spins and goes up and down except it just spins and is completely enclosed like a flying saucer. My husband said it looked like the roof was going to fly off. Inside, I didn't know the "seats" were going to raise up (plastic slab against the wall -I was panicking but the worst part was when they slammed back down ON THE HEELS OF MY SHOES. Clipped the back of one of my ankles. Some rides should be left in the 80s.

Pretty sure it "works", those machines run on very low-tech motors and controllers, can run off a gas generator or random electrical supplies, so they can take a real beating. I would be more concerned with metal fatigue on the frame and joints.

In an article for Glamour, Reed shared her experience buying an 88-inch velvet couch for $500 from someone in a wealthy NYC neighborhood. The original retail price, she says, is $1,499, which does not include taxes and shipping fees.

3rd Time's The Charm? Post Says "Firm On Price"

Load More Replies...Reed also offered a few tips for sellers, including limiting the number of photos they post. She recommends using up to four photos featuring different angles and close-ups of imperfections.
Reed advises doing research before pricing a product. In her case, she lists an item for 50% more than the lowest offer she would accept.
“There are very few pieces that will recoup their full retail value, so don’t be surprised to find that your item has significantly depreciated,” she wrote.

Parmeisan 9 months ago
Yes, it's silly to expect a discount because you're a beginner. But also, I hope that price isn't basically the new price because you opened it - we can't trust that you didn't use it. It's only normal to expect your price on a site like this to be a lot less than the new price.

“Come Do Thousands Of Dollars Of Work For Free”

Where I live, people have outdoor wood burning stoves to heat their homes. Free firewood in exchange for a few hours work is a good deal. Welcome to the barter economy. Goods for services. I don't even remember the last time we had to buy firewood, probably over a decade ago, because we always find people who need help taking trees down. It's a win for everyone.

I was curious about this one. It's not too far off. I went to kbb.com and put in the information I could get from what was shown. The "private party" sale range is $17,829-$22,782. This ad says "fresh trade", so I'm assuming a d****r put it up. D****r prices are typically higher than a private party sale, so yeah. It actually sounds like the price is about right for that vehicle. I'd never pay that much for a 11 year old truck with a quarter million miles, but I'm sure someone will!
