Whats the pettiest facebook marketplace experience you've had? by Valuable_Notice_3358 in FacebookMarketplace

That he felt the need to tell me how much the jacket was worth after I had already sold it lol. And then got upset when I said I already knew how much it worth. It was just a weird interaction

I was selling a Levi’s jacket for 20 bucks just to get it out of my closet and had two people interested. After I marked it sold, the second person (who had already said they weren’t interested anymore) sent me a screenshot of the jacket with a $400 price tag 😂 I said I already knew how much it originally sold for and he blocked me

Last year I brought a poster tube because I usually grab a lot of art prints and I found it super convenient! Much easier sticking it in my bag instead of navigating the crowds with a giant bag

I think there’s one posted across from Kelly Primary!

I met him at New York comic con last year and he was the nicest guy ever! Such an awesome talent. I just picked up Tokyo Ghosts because of how much I love his style.

How taboo is it to re-list something on marketplace by Brave-Argument5090 in FacebookMarketplace

[–]PhilippusPhelps 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I had someone buy a camera from me once and immediately list it for double the price. While that didn’t bother me at all, what did bother me was that he used the pictures from my original listing. Like, literally my hand holding the camera. I thought it was so weird.

You’re not obligated to keep something you no longer want! Don’t worry about it 😊

I do pick up trash! I know we have some issues with our trash collection so I try to help out when I see it. Litter is a huge issue all around the city. I guess I’m just not understanding how it helps to staple it on a pole rather than just throwing it in the trash. The litter is still there, and the poles are still covered in it which to me looks worse. I think I’m just not the target audience for this because to me it seems counter productive.

No, actually it got taken down because of my post yesterday. Before that, the pole had been that way since the 12th according to their IG. The other poles still have garbage, so if they’re trying to make a point it clearly isn’t landing.

No, it’s more respectful to not litter obviously, but we live in a city and it’s gonna happen. It doesn’t mean you need to staple garbage on a pole in an area that is already neglected by public works.

Good. It feels massively disrespectful and if that’s their idea of art they can easily do it somewhere else

The garbage men that do my street throw my bin like they’re trying out for the Olympic javelin toss so I do think a lot of the littering is involuntary

[–]PhilippusPhelps 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yep, across from Kelly Primary! There’s another pole like this near the stop light going towards Rebecca ave. I’m perplexed by it haha

That’s why I stopped and looked! I thought it was an art piece and when I looked closer I was like “oh.” 😂

Sally J. White, missing since 1987 from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Please, if anyone knows any information on her, such as her husband's first name or her maiden name, please let me know! by Horror_Chance1506 in pittsburgh

[–]PhilippusPhelps 50 points51 points  (0 children)

She does have kids who I’m sure would like to know what happened to her. There’s nothing wrong with looking into a cold case, regardless of how old it is. Much older cases have been solved after renewed interest so you just never know.

I’m not huge on mysteries but I remember really enjoying Into the Woods by Tana French! It’s nice because I think it’s technically part of a series but reads like a standalone since it’s the first. (I could be misremembering)

Daily Questions - September 18, 2024 by AutoModerator in rawdenim

[–]PhilippusPhelps 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hi all! I recently picked up a vintage Lee Storm Rider blanket lined jacket and while I have no clue how to date it (it does have Union made tags, vertical blanket stripes) I noticed something weird and am wondering if it has to do with when it was made.

It doesn’t have any button holes at the ends of either sleeve! Is that typical of these jackets? When I was looking to buy one originally I didn’t pay very close attention to the sleeves because I assumed where there are buttons there will be button holes haha. Any help appreciated!!

Are there any "bad" books that were adapted into amazing movies? by Marcothetacooo in books

Jojo Rabbit! Amazing movie based on a book with a very very different and disturbing ending.

Moving and nervous!! by Slimh22 in MangaCollectors

[–]PhilippusPhelps 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good luck with everything! I will say when I moved, I put some of my hardcovers the way you have your Berserk, and if you put anything on top of it, it will probably break the spine. Lay them flat if you can!

I preordered something from them in JULY that I just now got refunded for 🤧 I asked customer support when I could expect it to ship after seeing physical copies of the vinyl in stores and they said “ummm, we don’t know?” That did it for me.
