30 Annoying People Spotted On Facebook Marketplace Who Deserve To Be Shamed (New Pics)

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.

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.

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.

For more context, he even told me, “Not gonna have u come out here for no reason.” Woke up early and drove nearly an hour for this.

I spoke to this person once (pictured), in the summer when she was asking for donations of clothing for men on Marketplace. Then she messages me this morning, asking for money. Either she was hacked or she’s insane lol. Judging by her profile, she seems to fall into the second category.

He’s never drank coffee in bed I guess.

This is a 5 year old mattress I’m selling for $50, who would deliver that?

What kind of delusion, I am not physically able to do that let alone for free and 30 minutes away?

Selling a nice laptop on FB marketplace for $450 so I can also get through these tough times.

As soon as he got the TV home and set it up he turned it on and the TV was cracked, but he couldn’t even tell it was cracked when the TV was off. The person has blocked my dad.

Homeboy offered almost half price and required me to deliver it. I ended up getting full price for it and somebody came and got it from my house. Bonus for somebody trying to do multiple payments.

I market an old vacuum for sale and quickly received many messages for it. The first person (in picture) asked if i would deliver it, i told them i could today after 630. They did not reply or view the messages for over 5 hours, and in that time i got an offer for etransfer and pickup for today, which i accepted. Fast forward a bit, i notified the buyer it was sold and this was their response. (Midle aged christian mother)

Background - the company I work for sometimes has overstock of items that we don’t really sell (think bonus items, giveaways, promos, etc). They just take up space so we give them away to places that can use them and write it off.

We’ve been sharing them on Facebook marketplace with the very clear stipulations that these are items in bulk (we aren’t opening boxes to pass out 1-2, please take a few boxes) and you need to pick them up. Most of the places we hear from are schools, daycares, nonprofits, etc. If one is pretty close we don’t mind dropping off if it’s not out of the way but we don’t make it a habit.

EVERY time we list something, this person reaches out. The first time she said she only wanted one item (I referred her to the listing and she said “okay I’ll take two) and then after said she didn’t drive and could we deliver. I was very civil and explained that we did not deliver and I got three messages back in a row just saying “please”. I finally decided that I could do a good deed and asked her where she was and she proceeded to tell me that she lived 30 to 40 minutes away. I reiterated that we did not deliver and I was sorry I couldn’t help her.

This is the most recent one from this weekend. It had been a while since we listed something and I thought her name sounded familiar and sure enough, it’s the same one … only now she’s not even asking, she’s demanding that we mail her free items on our dime. I’m sorry, NO.

I had blocked one of her profiles but it seems she has more. Probably because she keeps getting blocked from people.
