There’s nothing wrong with making a dollar or two by selling things you don’t need. After all, we are all trying to live more sustainably by making conscious choices to consume less and reuse more. But some people have surely taken the logic to the very end of extreme.

Welcome to the Facebook group that brings you the best of the worst of the internet in the comfort of your home. Titled “Sad Sales, Stolen Goods, and Sketchy Services,” it serves as a grim collection for “screen caps and photos of depressing or questionable sales, products, auctions, classified ads, or services.”

Anything from questionable mystery boxes and an object titled “nail art” that will make you cringe at the sight of it, to Edward Cullen’s cutout and a cake from a baby shower that the ad swears has never been touched, ends up on there.

Thanks to the group’s 287.6K members, we now have one hell of a list of very cursed Facebook marketplace ads. It makes you wonder if there's anything people wouldn’t sell for a dollar, and the answer is obvious.
