On Facebook here on the MS Coast are a handful of little Buy Sell Trade groups. One person I have noticed on here constantly selling is a teacher and has sold several Rolex watches and cars in the past year. One of the most bizarre things I ever see. Every week it's a new car or Rolex. Nothing else. Like, there is no way you're not doing something shady. LIke, this has to be some drug money or illegal dealings, huh? All of her prices are a solid chunk under the appraisals as well.

I know someone who sells legit for other people who want nothing to do with FB or social media in general.

There’s a couple of women that pop up on marketplace dressed like a skank standing in front of a mirror. The description says to message with any questions about the mirror. I’m guessing they are trying to get subscribers to their only fans or something to that effect.

FB is surprisingly legit. I got a great deal on a model train once, and when I left the guy even gave me some imitation crabmeat for free.

2 possibilities:

1) selling for other people to make a small commission

2) knows how to spot a really good deal on those items. Finds someone selling them for undervalue. Immediately posts to sell for actual value in a different Facebook group. Agrees to sell. Then turns around a buys the undervalued item

Did it smell ok?


That’s awesome. I’d go home to play Deadliest Catch and be Sig Hansen.

This week, for the captain and his crew of the mighty Northwestern, in the tanks below remains 10,000 lbs of the V elusive opelio crab. Sig races to meet the train bound for the Mississippi Gulf Coast and one very special John (from the Silver Slipper).

All new, on Discovery

I get sketchy ads all the time.

Just last week I got one for pads and pencils.

Those are the sketchiest items I know.

Was he offering free shipping?

Was it at or below convenience store prices? Wally World charges anywhere from 75 cents to a dollar depending on brand or package count, while a shop and rob convenience store may charge 2 dollars a can.

Must be some hot Vienna sausages he lifted from the store, or they are expired, or they are looking to see if anyone takes the bait to rob you.

I was telling a buddy about this the other day. I swear it’s some kind of backpage shite on Marketplace. It’s way to often and always scantily clad clothing on.
