FB Marketplace shopping

So I do think that the marketplace is a great place to buy things. I haven't had bad experience on marketplace. I bought end tables on marketplace, and they were antique, and I just restained them. So I bought that from there. Done. I think one time I did, like some corn or something I bought from somebody off of there, off of a farmer's market. I bought a few things off of there

But I think Facebook marketplace could be okay if it's used correctly. If the person is reputable, you notice on their page, they've had their page for a very long time and that is safe. A meet up. I don't like going to anybody's house and I don't want them coming to my house

Big items

The use cases that I use Facebook marketplace are the same that I used to use with Craigslist. And I don't know if anybody remembers Craigslist. Does anybody still use Craigslist or has Facebook marketplace just completely wiped Craigslist? Irrelevant. I'm going to go check that out. I just have no idea. I haven't brought that site up in years. But anyways, I would usually do this for big ticket items and those items that are just way too expensive to ship, way too impossible to ship

So since she was faced with her neighbors doing that, she went ahead and called the ambulance. Ambulance came, got her, took her to the hospital, and then my coworker actually went in the room, and she was reaching for her cervix. And her cervix feels different on a lady who just had a baby or pregnant than a non pregnant person. And she knew just from feeling that it wasn't right. So she asked where the placenta was

But, yeah, those big ticket items, they are usually the ones they're selling. But some people make homemade things. I actually sold some holistic items on there before, but not very much. But, yeah, that is a good way. And sometimes people are friendly, but I always look at the ratings to make sure that I'm getting somebody that's good. Thanks for responding

Yes, ma'am, that is the story that I was talking about. And it's so tragic and so despicable that she would do something like that to her. She wanted the baby. I don't understand people. I don't understand people anymore. That was diabolical. It just was evil, just downright evil. And I have no sympathy for her because if she's in jail, she gets to sit in jail. This mother is dead. She's dead. She's gone

Hey. Yeah, I was kind of thinking that was a story that you were talking about. But like I said, I worked at the department when it happened. And actually I was off because I was getting ready. I was supposed to have my baby. I was supposed to be having a scheduled c section to have my baby. Like that weekend. I think this happened, like early in the week it

I look at that before I buy anything from anybody. I don't care how amazing it is, I look at the seller reviews, and if they have a track record of providing excellent service and they get a lot of glowing reviews, then I am more apt to buy from someone like that. Poor reviews can turn me off right away. Even if you have a great product, if you have poor reviews, then if you have a pattern of poor reviews, then that will turn me off instantly

It was already assembled and it wasn't a cat tree that was ever in someone's house, which that was part of kind of my apprehension with a cat tree and other stuff, because I don't really like to buy stuff on people's houses

Marble, like hallway table or entryway table, whatever. And it's a nice size. I was going to put it in my hallway by my laundry room, and then when I put it there, I was like, oh, wow, that's big. That right there is going to take away some space. But it looked nice right there. But I ended up actually, I have an open layout from my kitchen in my living room. And I actually have a sectional in my living room

And it's all good, but I understand people's curiosity and people wanting to know and being knowledge, having the knowledge before they purchase things. So that's my experience in trying to sell. But as far as buying, I haven't bought a whole lot of things off of there. But in the times that I've had, I have been pleased
