“Humans Of Marketplace”: 30 Times People Spotted Shady Ads On Facebook Marketplace And Shared Them In This Online Group
If you liked our article on "Sad Sales, Stolen Goods, and Sketchy Services", you're going to enjoy this one as well. It's about another Facebook group dedicated to the weird side of the platform's Marketplace, and this one is just as funny.
Aptly titled "Humans Of Marketplace", it might not be the biggest online community but its content perfectly illustrates just how opportunistic and out-of-touch both sellers and buyers can be.
Whether we're talking about someone who is offering a baby yeet machine or a person asking to lower the price by 1,000%, they're all here!

SAILING BICYCLE
FOUND IN UGANDA THE PEAL OF AFRICA
FOR SALE
Large glass TV stand, Little wear n tear showing, doesn't suit my requirements. Open to offers or trade.
How is this shady? Description says the box is empty. $50 for an ampty box seems high to me but you can ask any price you want. Whether or not anyone will pay that price is another story but I don't think this is shady
I don't know about your part of the world, but around here auto parts stores will do that for free.
ITS THE SAME F*CKING THING OK
Perhaps upgraded and is selling the old one packed in the new one's box. Not sure why they wouldn't just take a pic of the 3 itself.
More nightmare fuel.
Looks like a mat in poor condition
Check out the mean manu's he can do tho.
This guy has found the untapped market of used science fair projects.
Considering how nice the Avalon is, if they're only asking $750 it probably has issues serious enough to make $350 a valid offer.
Fule prices are out of control
This isn't that weird, it's pretty common to buy a chunk of a parts-vehicle when you're doing rust repair.
Fire located
I bought one of these as a gift for my friend's kid, they loved it. I'm unclear why this is on this list. Also, why 2/3rds of the rest are. This list is awful.
Many of these are just weird, sometimes overpriced listings but not really shady in any way. Delusional, maybe, but not shady as the thread title suggests
The first half was actually shady stuffs, but then it got to be kind of normal. A little bit of a disappointing ending.
that's because people upvote the actually shady stuff, so it moves to the top of the list while the unrelated/normal stuff moves down
