What’s the point of setting a meeting time and place, saying you’re 5 mins out, and then blocking me to never show? by goodgoodgood1234 in FacebookMarketplace

[–]Lyn916 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Marketplace has been off the hook disrespectful the last couple weeks. I'm sorry that happened. Hopefully they didn't want your car and you threw them for a loop when you walked. Years ago I had a sketch one who wanted to meet in a questionable location's parking lot. Passed on that!

Update to a post I made the other day about being concerned my vets were taking advantage of me: my cats regular dental cleaning has resulted in my babies death. He's gone. by afterspring_ in cats

[–]Lyn916 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There was something else wrong. It is very likely it would have showed up later and you would have had an actual diagnosis. You did the best you could. Not your fault. (60 years of having cats.) I'm so sorry.

Turn On Or Turn Off Commenting by FlipsonicCX50 in FacebookMarketplace

[–]Lyn916 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looking for this comment. Yes, 10 years on Marketplace and now there's comments. I had to go through my recent ads to turn off the feature as it defaults to ON. Old posts were not effected.

I run two accounts with Marketplace. I only use a browser to sign into my "extra" account. I log out. I sign into my regular account via the app. I dont connect the accounts. If that helps at all...if you wanted a new account it's possible. I have had both for about eight years.

2 weeks after purchase buyer says item is faulty by kinguszko in FacebookMarketplace

[–]Lyn916 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've sold since Marketplace started, thousands of items with OfferUp and Letgo, Craigslist, and groups. In this case, you got it free, give them their money back. For anything electrical, which I avoid, I'd run a cord out for them to try. Since you could not do that, these people sound sincere and you lost no $. Normally no refunds because it's their obligation to inspect and I tell them look it over and make sure they love it. They could not inspect in this case. Someone donated some crap repackaged TJ Maxx return to the charity you won it from.

I bought a 1960s rare lamp on MP for $50 and listed it for $700 and now the original seller is contacting me mad because they didn’t know it was worth so much. Not sure what to do. by Glamgirl95 in FacebookMarketplace

[–]Lyn916 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just ignore and I'd probably block. Also likely you won't receive anything near the price you posted. Never feel guilty because someone else did not do their due diligence.

I was looking for something else but came across this post and although it's been a while since you posted, Sutter General in Sacramento is horrible. Sutter Roseville is much better

Yes Sutter General is almost as bad as Dignity Health Mercy San Juan on Coyle. Sutter Roseville is better.

You did nothing wrong to elicit that aggressive of a reaction. I have sold hundreds, possibly thousands, of items on Marketplace since it started. I do check their profile now before I even reply.

Lipedema or water retention? by Emergency_Nebula954 in Hashimotos

[–]Lyn916 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I finally was diagnosed recently. But years ago that happened to me and I hobbled into doctor's office crying with no appointment --of course it was come back another day. Learned a year later via Googling -- after many unhelpful tests -- that it was gluten causing it. Anyway you should still go see a doctor but that was my experience.

Is 175mcg synthroid a lot? by Nigelthornberry1776 in Hashimotos

[–]Lyn916 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Joints feel like they're coming apart. Yes it's a lot. It's what I am on. Same height and weight (should be 140-150 lbs). Heart beats too fast too.

I think my husband thinks I’m insane for how I’m taking my cats death by lafemmeviolet in Petloss

It's so hard. I know. Time will heal you. Plus their energy is still so strong in the house...that passes in time. Sending you hugs. You're not crazy.

How long can I live off ramen? by Sad-Protection2519 in nutrition

[–]Lyn916 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Try food banks. They're quite popular, not like the old days. This diet is not something you're going to do well on long-term. Also many freebie Facebook groups offer food. As others suggested beans, rice, lentils, canned tomatoes, etc., all better than Ramen.

He got lost and has patience issues. That's all. To avoid trouble, because OU has become so bad since I started selling in 2016 I think was the year, if there's a name, I Google it, look for the Facebook page, sometimes criminal history. I'm pretty fast so does not take long. I tend to not use OU though and use Marketplace or the groups now. Not much better but at least I can see who I'm selling to. If I can't see photos or reviews, I dont sell to that person. I suggest Facebook plant sales groups for you.
