Marketplace - a cesspool of scammers

 And here we go again,.... having to sell everything I own. And unfortunately that means opening my Facebook back up so I can sell it all on marketplace. 

I hate marketplace

I have only listed all my stuff and already I have dealt with a scammer.

They message you with no questions just 'Ok where are you?" so you give them your address but they wont give you a time. (??) People really do think they can say I dont know I'll let you know,... so you try and get them to tell you a day at least but they wouldn't,... so I just said no thanks - no time your picking up - then it stays for sale. They didn't even respond. WHY? 

I just can't stand that people don't respect your time. All i want is a day with either the morning, afternoon or evening. I think that is reasonable. To not even give a time? or day??? Something is up. So i went to find their profile and it wont let me. There is no 'see profile' button to click on. I googled the situation and they say if there is no button to see the profile? then it's a scam.

And I have to do this for the next 2 months. Deal with people who think they can 'drop by and pick it up this week sometime" or the other pet peeve I hate,.... trying to talk the price down. Once is ok,... but to continue to want a $50 item for $5 is just taking the mick. Fuck off,.... I am so sick of dealing with these people. But I have no choice. I need to sell my stuff.
