9 People Share Their Text Exchanges With Totally Self-Absorbed Nutcases
These people are unbelievable.
Some Facebook Marketplace sellers are learning that a simple sale can turn into a full-blown test of patience. A few buyers do not just haggle, they act as if paying at all is optional.
In these text exchanges, sellers deal with people who want items, favors, and even extra help without much concern for the other side. The result is a string of messages that are equal parts frustrating and unbelievable.
Here are nine encounters that show just how far some self-absorbed buyers will go.
1. Forgot she owed money for utilities…

That message did not go the way she expected.
2. I need my fridge cleaned…

3. And would that be all, sir?
He kept asking, and the seller kept saying no.
4. Well, he tried…
5. Yes, that is how you adopt children… via text messages.
This one gets stranger the longer it goes on.
This reminds us of the friend who spent their paycheck on non-essentials, and the struggle to say no.
6. Is that all? No problem…
7. It's not a job; it's a passion…
Some people really think enthusiasm should cover the bill.
8. "Is it made of gold?"
9. And what materials are preferred?
By the end, the sellers had heard it all.
Ready for more chaos, see the marketplace finds that are hard to explain.
