I'm not about to share my identity theft bait info with them so I guess
my selling days with them are over. Hello Craigslist...


I signed up for local buy and sell group on Facebook and readily sold a
bunch of stuff I no longer needed. No charge to do this. People show
interest in something you post and you give them contact info and they
come to you to buy.



The facebook buy & sell groups are good for being more local -
good for most things - perhaps less so if you have an unusual
or "collectible" item and you are looking to get top dollar.
I've not any Ebay experience at all ; in my part of the world
Kijiji is our Craigslist - but one tends to get a lot of idiots
replying - making low-ball offers without even asking a
single question about the item ; or VERY INTERESTED BUYERS -
- until you tell them you won't deliver and they will have to
heaven forbid leave The City and drive 20 miles to see it ..

Are you sure they're not scammers? Sounds like their MO.



Which ? I've named 2 types ...
1. low ball idiots
2. interested but not really
both might be scammers - FB has a "history"
but I don't use it.
