This is why I give things away to friends and friends of friends. If they ask to borrow something that I’m happy to get rid of, I tell them they can borrow it on the condition that they never bring it back or even mention it to me again.
Why yall so scared all the time. You’re more likely to die on your way to giving the item away than the buyer murdering you.
It’s more the people on kijiji/FB Marketplace are the scummiest most entitled people you’ve ever met. You’d find a more wholesome group at the cantina on tatooine.
They don’t show up when agreed, they want free delivery, you get to the meet spot or they show up and they only have half the money you agreed upon as a shitty form of haggling.
I had one lady tried to get us to take a chair we drove to her house back because she changed her mind (she said she was disabled so we delivered it to her, I don’t think she was because she was just a piece of shit all around when we got there).
The only people who I’ve ever been happy to give stuff to are the ones who seem to be looking for free stuff, so now we just give stuff away. People show up, they’re excited, there’s no haggling, it’s great.
Interesting, cause I stopped giving things away for free or at least I don’t write it into the offer, cause in Germany it happend quite a lot that people didn’t show up, when I wanted to just give it away. I don’t know why, maybe if it’s free it’s not that important I guess? So I started to offer things for a few bucks but still I want some money (at least I write that I want money). When someone arrives and wants to pick something up I just tell them to just take it. That way I get rid of so much more stuff and the people collecting stuff are always so happy as well.
I’m not leaving my home for $9. Y’all that hard up?
When she says do it, you do it…it’s not the 9$, it’s the weeks of torment afterwards and having the blender still in the house to remind her
Wife bad! Hahahhahahahaha
In Germany it’s normal that people come to your home and pick it up 🤷
But can be sketchy when you trying to buy sth yourself :D
That’s normal in the US too. The only time I’ve met someone elsewhere was at a cafe, so we could set up the thing I was purchasing on a table and power it on to test.
Ah ok, I thought you were too afraid to let strangers come to your apartment or sth :D
