You forgot the: "I'd love to buy this but it's too far away, can you deliver it 2 hours away for $60 total? I'm a single mom and if you don't do this for me YOU ruined my son's birthday."
Oh man. My wife has a huge heart and almost fell for this. It was something for a baby. Maybe a crib we sold or something. She wanted it delivered and set up. I said, "Sure, what the hell? Get it out of our house." Setup was just a few bolts. My wife messaged her back with no response. In the meantime, an expecting couple messaged and said they would drive up asap and pick it up. My wife wanted to hold the crib for the original lady who never responded! I said no way first come, first serve. My wife agreed reluctantly, and it was gone in 20 minutes. Never heard from the other lady 🤷♂️
I don't even talk to those "single mother" people. I hope I ruined their kid's Christmas too. Maybe it'll incentivize them to not be like her when they're adults
One time I bought a vacuum on marketplace and the guy was genuinely surprised like almost baffled that I not only drove out to his place but that I also had the full amount in cash ready
Back in 2008, I was selling my 250 CC motorcycle for $2400. Guy calls me wanting to trade me a bunch of guns for the bike. I asked him "what am I going to do with a bunch of guns?" He said "sell them and keep the money." I informed him he could also sell those guns for money and give me the money.
That type of thing happened to me. I had my Trackhawk up for sale on Craigslist, and some dude wanted to trade his Chevy Silverado pickup for it. I said I wasn't in the market for a pickup.
The worst one is where they negotiate a lower price that's acceptable to you and them and then they say "can you hold it for me for a couple days" and they ghost you. Then they contact you 3 weeks later if you still have it. Like wtf man go to hell.
Something similar happened to me. I held it for a buyer for a couple weeks. They never came or contacted me so I sold it to someone else. The person then calls me on Thanksgiving when we are eating and asks if she could come get the item. I explained that she never got back to me and that I got tired of waiting so I sold it to someone else. She proceeded to flip out on me and cuss me out because she said that she wanted it. I ended up just hanging up on her.
I'm a landlady, and I listed a duplex unit for rent. There was this guy who came to see the unit on behalf of his elderly father. He visited, looked around, and said he might be interested. A couple weeks later, he called me again to arrange for another showing, and this time he'll bring his father. We set up a time on a Saturday afternoon. I stay home all Saturday afternoon to show the unit, and this guy pulls a no show. And then a week or so later, he texts me asking if the duplex is still available. I never replied, and that was the end of it.
cant wait for the episode where he mocks the sellers where "I aint actually selling im just tryna see what i can get for it" so far all these been true!
Nailed it. Anyone that has listed or sold stuff on marketplace gets it. Loath the buyer that thinks since he’s paying cash that a 75% discount is deserved.
I let someone else sell something for me on facebook marketplace. First and last ever the buyer demanded a 2 day warranty for the item in question. Where if they weren't satisfied with the item for whatever reason they get refunded the $200. While they get to keep the item in question. The person who sold them my item agreed to those ridiculous terms. Exactly 2 days later I get a call for the person who sold the item for me. Informing me I have to return the money and the buyer will be here in 2 hours time for it. I told him this isn't a retail store there is no refund. I asked if they had any issues with said item functioning. To which he replied "no they didn't", they just decided to change their minds. That was when he informed me of the ridiculous warranty deal he agreed to on 'my behalf' to the buyer. They refused to return the item and ended up threatening me at gunpoint. So I ended up having to give the money back. I called the cops and they only were able to recover a corner of said item. The people who bought it destroyed the item. So now I was out the item I was selling and wasted weeks worth of my time. Nearly got killed, and out $200. I had a camera in my driveway that recorded everything. Despite that the cops refused to do anything more. Despite I ended up receiving death threats over trying to recover the $200 for several weeks at least. There is a good reason I never have, and never will use facebook or other such toxic social media websites. I only use RUclips for videos.
Buyer: it's stolen right? Seller: of course it's stolen. We're on marketplace. Buyer: ok ill buy it. Just wanted to make sure it's stolen. Don't want to waste my money buying something that's not stolen 😂😂😂
In my growing older, I am downsizing and this video along with the dewalt drill video shows every experience I've had with buyers on marketplace and Craigslist. I can't believe people asked me to deliver a $40 vacuum cleaner 15 miles away. I've learned my lesson quick, I don't deliver or even meet them down the street, both takes time and gas. First come ,first served, cash only, no holds over 1 hour, and no ph numbers given. People suck.

I had people say this to me when I worked at Canadian Tire, as if I'm selling things in the store personally or would steal things for them in exchange.
I sold one thing on eBay, and the experience was so awful I never did it again. I sold a drawing tablet for the computer. I specifically stated it was a USB plug in tablet. The buyer demanded a return and refund, because I didn't "explicitly say it wasn't Bluetooth, and electronics that aren't are useless". So, not only did I lose my cut that eBay took, I ended up paying about $24 for shipping both ways. At this point it's less of a hassle to just donate your stuff to a charity shop.
@@calebchristensenviolin I sold a PlayStation 3 with one controller, cords and two games for $89.99. Between shipping and eBay, it dropped to $53.67. The IRS of course takes their cut too, which is more than eBay's cut these days, thanks to Bidenomics. This brought it down to $36.01. So I started at $89.99 and after eBay fees, shipping and the new forced federal tax, I received $36.01 and lost $53.98. You can choose not to pay the tax on it but they absolutely will catch up to you even if it's only over a small amount.
@@Jaxxie1981 That's awful, but I can absolutely relate unfortunately. This was about five years back and thankfully nothing this horrible has happened since, but I once sold five Schleich German horses for about $200. They are vintage, collectibles, fragile, model horses. These were clearly marked as such and you were in the collectibles section of eBay. A woman purchased them and a few weeks go by when suddenly she messages me, irate and demanding a refund because "nowhere did you say that these are not toys and not fit for children!" Her toddler aged daughter had completely destroyed them. What's worse? eBay sided with her and pulled the money from my account, because I denied the refund, and gave her the money back. The worst part is they asked if I'd like to pay the shipping to have the broken pieces of porcelain sent back to me....
This summer was my first time on FB market place and I didn't know about that scam, of course it was the 1st response to my ad. But I was suspicious immediately when they asked about what payment methods I was willing to accept (I listed it for $1). When I received a text about a Google voice code, I Google it quick and texted them back, "OMG you ARE a scammer, go to hell!" And then blocked them.
These skits are painfully on point. I just sold a trailer last week, i genuinely couldnt believe the guy i sold it to had great communication, showed up on time, and made a reasonable offer. I was waiting for the whole thing to go horribly wrong every step of the way.
I was waiting for the "Can it play the xbox games? I got my son an xbox game and he cant play it" I've only ever sold 2 things on market place and you keep nailing every single interaction.
"The I'm omw" ghosted kills me. It's literally why i switched to ebay. It's so much easier to print a label and hand it over to usps. Im not taking time out of my day for that dumb shit ever again.
omg. I cant put into words how funny it is with your acting, when the first guy finds out its still available and walks away. his attitude as he turns and leaves, hahahaha. omg so funny.
2:01.. yeah, sure- you can just buy the fan. For $100 you take this whole thing- including the fan; and do whatever you want with it. For $200, I'll take the fan out and give you it and throw the rest away.
DEAD ASS DYING over here in Northern Lakes/ Mountain region NH! THIS IS LEGIT Facebook Market place here! MaRsHaLl YOU done did it again!!!! Last one was spot on and this one is even funnier! IM calling HR you gots to pay for my medical bills from laughing so gOD DANG hard!!!
Could you tell me the volts, the wattage and amps it takes to run that PlayStation also I coming from far away any chance you could knock some off the price for gas?
Haha love this series, so true. Need to do one on all the stupid trade offers they do to. “Hey bro will you trade a this two busted speakers and a used toilet brush for the Honda civic”?
I'm 26 I remember when I was 10 my neighbor drove a Ford pickup into his back yard. One day when I was like 21 or 22 I went over and asked if I could buy it. ( at this point it has become intangled into a tree and bushes). I said I'd cut it out for him clean the brush out and tow the truck and pay him. He said no his daughter husband is a Ford man and will fix it up oneday. 26 as of this month still sitting back there. ...... at least they cut the tree out....
the moment you got the tv out i kept waiting for the report you because it didnt come with a tv guy to come back... lol still awesome made me laugh a bunch, keep up the great skits.
Luckily the more you do sales the easier it gets. Instead of saying no to the fan, say yes I'll sell the fan for $80 and throw in the rest of the parts for free. When they want to say it work say sure, as long as you put the money on the table and buy it when you see it works. (Otherwise they'll probably lowball you after you demonstrate it). Also it helps A LITTLE to say 'if its still listed its still available' and 'cash only, no trades'. But people still won't read haha.
Yup. Every item that I list for free I simply put the address in the post, put it out on the porch and that's it. Check on it every once in a while to see if it is gone and never look at any messages. It is easier than drive to the Goodwill. Also, my favorite whenever someone asks me if I deliver is: "Sure, my company charges me 300/h to our clients, so your house is 20 min away, considering back and forth, that's 200 bucks for delivery."
The amount of times I've tried to buy something that says "if it's still up its still available" only to get told "sorry I sold that a few weeks ago" 😅
Do people like you not understand that asking if it’s available is the default pre written message it sends. Sorry I’m not writing a custom message for your crappy ps4 when I messaged 100 other people for their crappy ps4’s in the same hour. All you gotta do is click the default reply which is “yes, are you interested”
I once had someone on Facebook marketplace asking if something I had up for sale if it was still available I said yes and there only response was "Nice."
@williecanuck5001 yup, that's the problem with Facebook. Nobody reads the freaking ad. There's so many times when a person asks a question that is already answered in the listing description.
Going through this right now with an atv. Dude wants me to drive an hour to his house for him to look at it and mentions he’s a “serious cash buyer”. Anyone remember making an ad in the newspaper and having to actually phone people?
interesting to see the other side of things. Sellers rarely respond to any of my messages, and when they do its either 3-5 days later, they already sold it and forgot to take the ad down or some other random ass excuse.
Nothing drives me crazier than being seriously interested in something, messaging to arrange to look at it, and getting "viewed" with no response. I'll even follow up just in case they were busy and get nothing
It's so strange. Happens to me about a quarter of the time where I offer to buy things, people read my message, and then don't reply or sell it. Funniest was a bike I offered to buy for 20 bucks last summer. They ended up having it listed for like 3 months and eventually gave it away for free, and I was the one who picked it up.
20 dollars was their asking price too, so it's not like they ignored me because I lowballed em or wanted delivery or anything. This happens way more often on my city's local classifieds too. People are just allergic to money or don't keep up with messages and end up holding onto stuff forever as a result.
I was looking for a set of used tires for my work vehicle. My work vehicle is junk, and it won't last more than a couple more months. But, I might as well drive it until the wheels fall off. I found a guy on marketplace who had tons and tons of tires- said he had all sizes/types/brands/quality lots of whole sets. I asked him for pics and he sent me some..looked like nice tires. So, I go look at them. This place is in the middle of nowhere, a couple trailers that look like they might be meth labs and a whole bunch of complete junk tires that are 3/32nd at best. He has the tires in a barbed wire fence in part of the field. Wanted $300 for full sets. I looked for about 2 minutes and high tailed out of there before being murdered.
Hey that's cool and all, but what I need is a Dewalt drill. Is that still available??? I've got this job starting tomorrow and I need a drill. Will you take payments on the drill??? And also I really need a ride tomorrow. Can you give me the drill and a ride on payments tomorrow????
You need to do the one where they want to pay you through Venmo but need your email address to send you the confirmation or the popular, "I'm out of town but I'm going to send my son but his bank account is frozen so I need to pay you through Venmo." My most favorite is when they agree to a price, time and place and just don't show up.
That stuff is so true Marshall sometimes you do get a few weird offers ,requests and wanting to trade for some old beat up crap..like here they just disappear. . .
Ahhh. Got to relive my pain and fun selling on Marketplace. I've done it about a dozen times and have quickly learned to identify the serious from the scammers. I start every listing with, "no reply to IS IT STILL AVAILABLE?" Are you looking at the add????? I don't need to make money - just want to reduce my pile of stuff. One guy came to look at my motorcycle then started in on how bad the tires looked, hoping to knock down the price. I stood firm and he went away only to return days later. Like magic, the price jumped up $50. Who could have seen that coming?
Cashier's check or money order are common for large purchases. Ever go to the bank and ask to take out $10k to buy a car with no notice? It doesn't usually work out.
@@kenshinhimura9387 How many times have you made private purchases in the five-figure range? I'm not saying people use them to buy $500 rust buckets; they're common for large, private purchases.
Forgot about the ones who agree to a price then either expect you to drive over an hour to meet them and/or deliver it for free (when the post specified local pickup only).
Need one where you’re giving away something big and let them know they need to bring a buddy to move it. then show up alone and expect you to move it all by yourself.
You still got that drill? My bank screwed up my check, so I only have about $6.18, could I trade you my blender for the rest? You only have to replace the power cable because my cat chewed through the copper. Thanks.
Sold a engineering sample of a CPU. Guy msgd me that it's illegal to sell engineered samples yada yada. Told him cool, thanks for ur input. He then proceeds to offer me pennies of its value or he'll report me. Had a good laugh.
too many times the guy who asks you bunch of knowledgeable questions about it and you have a seemingly normal conversation suddenly turns into the "i'm out of town right now. my brother will come pick it up with a check." guy.
Is the Dewalt drill still available? If so, does it come with the charger?🤣🤣🤣

Ebay: "Ooh, you sold your thing that's worth $100 for $90. Here, we'll go ahead and take $40 of that. You cover shipping." @@stevesmith1383
Yeah but like... are you ever going to refill that bird feeder?
omg. I cant put into words how funny it is with your acting, when the first guy finds out its still available and walks away. his attitude as he turns and leaves, hahahaha. omg so funny.
2:01.. yeah, sure- you can just buy the fan. For $100 you take this whole thing- including the fan; and do whatever you want with it. For $200, I'll take the fan out and give you it and throw the rest away.
DEAD ASS DYING over here in Northern Lakes/ Mountain region NH! THIS IS LEGIT Facebook Market place here! MaRsHaLl YOU done did it again!!!! Last one was spot on and this one is even funnier!
IM calling HR you gots to pay for my medical bills from laughing so gOD DANG hard!!!
Could you tell me the volts, the wattage and amps it takes to run that PlayStation also I coming from far away any chance you could knock some off the price for gas?
$12 and a high five. That’s my final offer.
A marketplace buyer would never give a high five, only a low five
You can just be scrolling the page and finger that "Is this available" button. Great design, FB web team.
Haha love this series, so true. Need to do one on all the stupid trade offers they do to. “Hey bro will you trade a this two busted speakers and a used toilet brush for the Honda civic”?
I'm 26 I remember when I was 10 my neighbor drove a Ford pickup into his back yard.
One day when I was like 21 or 22 I went over and asked if I could buy it.
( at this point it has become intangled into a tree and bushes).
I said I'd cut it out for him clean the brush out and tow the truck and pay him.
He said no his daughter husband is a Ford man and will fix it up oneday.
26 as of this month still sitting back there.
...... at least they cut the tree out....
I sell on marketplace all the time and have experienced every one of these situations. This was awesome!!!
This is every online marketplace ever. Thank you for this.
the moment you got the tv out i kept waiting for the report you because it didnt come with a tv guy to come back... lol still awesome made me laugh a bunch, keep up the great skits.
"ill pay cash!"
no shit, where did you think I was going to swipe the credit card?
Some people take PayPal, CashApp, et cetera.
"I'm on my way"................................................... accurate
I just relate to this so much. The microwave guy coming back is just the cursed shit that follows you through a whole day of retail.
$100 and no bahama vaction cruise?
Reporting a rip off!
im gonna have to start randomly asking people if their stuff will fit in my microwave
Luckily the more you do sales the easier it gets.
Instead of saying no to the fan, say yes I'll sell the fan for $80 and throw in the rest of the parts for free.
When they want to say it work say sure, as long as you put the money on the table and buy it when you see it works. (Otherwise they'll probably lowball you after you demonstrate it).
Also it helps A LITTLE to say 'if its still listed its still available' and 'cash only, no trades'. But people still won't read haha.
Yup. Every item that I list for free I simply put the address in the post, put it out on the porch and that's it. Check on it every once in a while to see if it is gone and never look at any messages. It is easier than drive to the Goodwill.
Also, my favorite whenever someone asks me if I deliver is: "Sure, my company charges me 300/h to our clients, so your house is 20 min away, considering back and forth, that's 200 bucks for delivery."
When I do sell parts I list what it fits, then say if you don’t believe me and ask if it fits something else I will tell you yes and take your money.
The amount of times I've tried to buy something that says "if it's still up its still available" only to get told "sorry I sold that a few weeks ago" 😅
Do people like you not understand that asking if it’s available is the default pre written message it sends.
Sorry I’m not writing a custom message for your crappy ps4 when I messaged 100 other people for their crappy ps4’s in the same hour. All you gotta do is click the default reply which is “yes, are you interested”
I once had someone on Facebook marketplace asking if something I had up for sale if it was still available I said yes and there only response was "Nice."
'If ad is up, its still available'. 1st line in my listings. nearly all replies are... is this still available??
@williecanuck5001 yup, that's the problem with Facebook. Nobody reads the freaking ad. There's so many times when a person asks a question that is already answered in the listing description.
Going through this right now with an atv. Dude wants me to drive an hour to his house for him to look at it and mentions he’s a “serious cash buyer”. Anyone remember making an ad in the newspaper and having to actually phone people?
I mean if that guy really does have cash - well that sounds pretty serious. I’d do whatever he wants.
Don't do that. Someone else will show up with cash in hand.
I've never done marketplace but all my friends have said this is exactly how it is!
interesting to see the other side of things. Sellers rarely respond to any of my messages, and when they do its either 3-5 days later, they already sold it and forgot to take the ad down or some other random ass excuse.
Nothing drives me crazier than being seriously interested in something, messaging to arrange to look at it, and getting "viewed" with no response. I'll even follow up just in case they were busy and get nothing
It's so strange. Happens to me about a quarter of the time where I offer to buy things, people read my message, and then don't reply or sell it. Funniest was a bike I offered to buy for 20 bucks last summer. They ended up having it listed for like 3 months and eventually gave it away for free, and I was the one who picked it up.
20 dollars was their asking price too, so it's not like they ignored me because I lowballed em or wanted delivery or anything. This happens way more often on my city's local classifieds too. People are just allergic to money or don't keep up with messages and end up holding onto stuff forever as a result.
Very well done. I love that the weirdest guy is the one who keeps coming back, too.
*They should just call it what it is, MethFace Marketplace.*
You left out my favorite. The guy walking up, saying nothing except screaming a friend’s name, and then leaving.
Just so everyone knows the microwave guy is a truck driver he’s trying to fit everything into his sleeper cab lol
I figured he was trying to block EM cause he's that kind of nut.
@@GamesFromSpace¿Por que no los dos?
These honestly are right up there with "If Google was a real person" these are sooo good!!
can't wait to see the guy who's 15 minutes away show up in a sketch a year from now and complain the ps4 isn't still for sale.
So freaking funny!! I love this original content and the amount of time you put into it!!
Is that the PlayStation slim?
It looks like a PlayStation thin, since it’s half the size I’ll pay half.
But the slim version fits better into the microwave...
This couldn’t be more spot on.
I was looking for a set of used tires for my work vehicle. My work vehicle is junk, and it won't last more than a couple more months. But, I might as well drive it until the wheels fall off. I found a guy on marketplace who had tons and tons of tires- said he had all sizes/types/brands/quality lots of whole sets. I asked him for pics and he sent me some..looked like nice tires. So, I go look at them. This place is in the middle of nowhere, a couple trailers that look like they might be meth labs and a whole bunch of complete junk tires that are 3/32nd at best. He has the tires in a barbed wire fence in part of the field. Wanted $300 for full sets. I looked for about 2 minutes and high tailed out of there before being murdered.
The craziest people come out when you start listing game consoles lol.
Your TV and couch comes with it, right? 👍 Can you deliver that? I only live 90 mi away
😂
3:27 That literally happened when I was a child and we were using our boats for tables during yard sales. No....the boat is not for sale 😂
Hey that's cool and all, but what I need is a Dewalt drill. Is that still available??? I've got this job starting tomorrow and I need a drill. Will you take payments on the drill??? And also I really need a ride tomorrow. Can you give me the drill and a ride on payments tomorrow????
This is so insanely realistic. I loved this
You need to do the one where they want to pay you through Venmo but need your email address to send you the confirmation or the popular, "I'm out of town but I'm going to send my son but his bank account is frozen so I need to pay you through Venmo." My most favorite is when they agree to a price, time and place and just don't show up.
Especially when it’s someone you know…
That stuff is so true Marshall sometimes you do get a few weird offers ,requests and wanting to trade for some old beat up crap..like here they just disappear. . .
That is how we end up with so much crap we don't use.
Ahhh. Got to relive my pain and fun selling on Marketplace. I've done it about a dozen times and have quickly learned to identify the serious from the scammers. I start every listing with, "no reply to IS IT STILL AVAILABLE?" Are you looking at the add????? I don't need to make money - just want to reduce my pile of stuff. One guy came to look at my motorcycle then started in on how bad the tires looked, hoping to knock down the price. I stood firm and he went away only to return days later. Like magic, the price jumped up $50. Who could have seen that coming?
Would have sold that man the fan for $100.. it also includes everything else for FREE.. what a value!
One of the few RUclipsrs I look forward to in the day
This was so funny and incredibly realistic. Thanks for the laugh.
I love it when the phrase “I got cash” comes up. Lol as opposed to what shillings? Geodes? What the else do you think you can pay for it with? 😂😂😂😂
Cash is now a luxury in the era of stupid apps. I thought this too until I became a seller and got soft robbed with Cashapp.
I had someone offer me a check today or they’ll be about a month to get cash…tell me I made a good decision.
Cashier's check or money order are common for large purchases. Ever go to the bank and ask to take out $10k to buy a car with no notice? It doesn't usually work out.
@@Morboeatspeopleno they are not common. I can count on one hand all the time in my life I've ever had to use one of them.
@@kenshinhimura9387 How many times have you made private purchases in the five-figure range? I'm not saying people use them to buy $500 rust buckets; they're common for large, private purchases.
Forgot about the ones who agree to a price then either expect you to drive over an hour to meet them and/or deliver it for free (when the post specified local pickup only).
The microwave cracked me up.
A lot of people buying stuff on market place have no money. Most low end people have no money. They’re your customer base on marketplace
Need one where you’re giving away something big and let them know they need to bring a buddy to move it. then show up alone and expect you to move it all by yourself.
...and of course put it in the back of the Honda Accord.
You'd have to make a 20 hour video to equal the real amount how many "is this still available?" messages you get when selling on FB
I once sold a kicker sub and a guy messaged me saying that hed buy it if i lived closer😂
It was important for you to know that
God this stuff is so spot on. I can't believe how hard market place is and how hard people make it.
You forgot the part where you just give up and give it to GameStop for 20 dollars
I was randomly recommended your channel today and now I’m binge watching😂 great channel
This is SPOT ON!
I’ve got to say- this is so well done and ACCURATE!
Does anyone actually sell anything on facebook???
I feel like it is just an endless spiral of people adding items and removing them.
I work with the public. This video resonates with me.
you need to do the same thing but from the other side where the seller doesn’t respond at all.
I sell cars on Facebook marketplace and this is giving me flashbacks.
You still got that drill? My bank screwed up my check, so I only have about $6.18, could I trade you my blender for the rest? You only have to replace the power cable because my cat chewed through the copper. Thanks.
Sold a engineering sample of a CPU. Guy msgd me that it's illegal to sell engineered samples yada yada. Told him cool, thanks for ur input. He then proceeds to offer me pennies of its value or he'll report me. Had a good laugh.
You can sell engineered samples off anything...😂
No way I was just watching your videos. Osha
The microwave customer has me in tears😂😂😂😂
When there’s 10 watchers and not a single message 😂
This portrayal is amazingly accurate. hysterical!
How many hoodies do you own tho? And is that all of them
He AINT selling his hoodies, aight.
😉
The orange hoodie was the male "Karen" 😅. That dude wanting to put the console in the microwave needs help.
There's also the guy who's asking for a trade. Bro, I don't want your shitty, used stereo system.
The word Bro garnishes immediate blockage from me😂
I've actually regressed back to Craigslist. Stupid emails are better than stupid posts.
Hey bud is it still available? I got 2 bald mud tires and 20 bucks. You can keep the cords. 🤣
too many times the guy who asks you bunch of knowledgeable questions about it and you have a seemingly normal conversation suddenly turns into the "i'm out of town right now. my brother will come pick it up with a check." guy.
