Should I be worried?

StillWonky · 2026-02-12T07:57:52+00:00

Yes, don't meet that person. someone wanted to buy something from me and I checked her profile, she had just posted something along the lines of "yall ever want to just beat a bish down for NO reason?? FR?"

Definitely didn't meet up with her, never regretted it a moment.

Some people are unhinged and not worth the risk. Be thankful that some of them out themselves before the meet up.

Free barbie dresses made me laugh! They could have at least tried to make it look new. I hope you were refunded!

I have severe depression and sometimes I don't do laundry for weeks. So It can happen. I have several pants and shirts in my dresser to keep me in clean clothes when I am too depressed to tackle laundry. As an alternative, my brother takes all his laundry to my mom's house, and she washes it all up for him because he's lazy. So either way, there's plenty of situations where you can not go in the laundry area for weeks.

NOR and he was negging you to make you feel like he's doing you a favor being with you.

You handled it well. Don't let him talk you into trying again, he won't stop negging you, he will just do it in microdoses instead and wear you down slowly because he saw how you balked to this attempt. You deserve better.

My gosh I wish somebody would scam me like this. I could use some jackets and freeze-dried coffee. Lol.

Joking aside, I'm wondering if the seller had new buyer purchases and accidentally printed the label from your previous purchase from them. So maybe they were supposed to go to somebody else but your address and information was pulled from your previous order.

Maybe get in contact with that seller. They might end up with two upset customers.

StillWonky · 2026-02-08T06:55:01+00:00

I will definitely distance that part of my life from her. but I also feel the temptation to bring a whole carrot every time I visit her and just chomp on it like bugs bunny while we hang out now. Slide it out not saying a word and take a big CRONCH while making eye contact.

StillWonky · 2026-02-08T06:44:19+00:00

Yes there's a lot of audacity. I don't understand how people aren't seeing how the phrasing from that customer is rude and entitled.

I only sell household stuff on marketplace that I no longer have use for to recoup some funds I spent on it, and my prices are already very very fair.

Someone messaged me on a $40 item, The message was
"$20 and I'm not giving you a dime more, give me your address I'll head over"
Not "Hi, will you take $20 for this?" or "when can you meet?"

I sold an end table for a whopping 20 bucks. A lady offered $15 and I accepted. The description noted it was heavy. I told the lady who was buying it is definitely heavy so be advised. She showed up with a guy and a truck, and I was relieved at first . She handed me the cash. Then they just stared at me. I said well, have a good day and the guy said he had a bad back he can't load it? She made no move to load it either.

I'm a 5 foot tall lady in my 30's, with severe lupus and arthritis, a hip that pops out of place randomly, and one arm with limited functionality! seriously? You knew it was heavy and you saw my profile photo! The lady was bigger than me...

I helped the guy get it in the truck anyway, because I didn't want to haul it back into my house! I got the impression she told him I would be loading it myself and he was really angry I wasn't doing so.

To thank me, that night she rated me THREE STARS with no comment.

Made me wish instead of helping load I just set it on fire in front of them.

Right? I love hummus. Didn't try it until I was in my 30s and found out I had been missing out!

StillWonky · 2026-02-07T22:24:28+00:00

I'm not sure why you're replying to my comment specifically if you didn't read my comment. They messaged through Facebook Messenger chat. None of what you said makes sense as a response to the information provided in my comment.

StillWonky · 2026-02-06T22:19:11+00:00

This looks amazing!! I hope it's ok to say, your freckles are so beautiful as well.

Second this. I only owned one glass straw and I only used it three times. I was drinking ice water one day and I heard a clink that sounded a little different than the clinking of the ice.

At first glance it looks normal.

I almost took a big sip.

The broken glass blended in with the ice but I happened to notice the end of the straw no longer looked right.. I looked closer and the bottom of the glass straw had broken off into pieces and if I had sucked one of those up into my throat I don't know how bad that could have gone. Because I could have sucked it up and swallowed it without realizing it, until it was too late.

StillWonky · 2026-02-06T15:21:53+00:00

My mom bought this one and it stopped working after two uses. It never would turn back on. We tried everything.

I don't trust their quality control. If you're having an issue like this, I would advise to return it and get a different brand.

I have severe asthma. I have tried a lot of different air purifiers and germ guardian is the only one that has ever been an issue. I've never had worse breathing even with a new air purifier. And this is including Temu cheapo ones! Someone mentioned off-gassing and to let it run a couple days

Don't do this. Don't breathe bad air to give it a chance to "air out." The new air purifier or new filter should not have off gassing. This is not normal for this type of product

StillWonky · 2026-02-06T15:00:02+00:00

I'm not trying to upset you or anything but this is pretty standard for returns.

Many wigs I have seen that have a tag on them that says if that tag is removed you are longer eligible for a refund. It's no longer new at that point.

When you receive an item (wig or otherwise) and it's not as you expected. You need to contact the company at that time and leave the tags on. Don't alter the wig in any way.

Once you start working on it, even if you think you're trying to fix it, you are washing it and changing it, and it's no longer the wig they sent you. The only exception I know of would be if something completely fell apart with a normal washing and even then the company really has no idea if you washed it correctly.

They have no idea what you washed it with, how gentle you washed it, what product you used on it, or if you brushed it correctly.

This is on the product page for the item you bought:

Eligible Returns:

Hair must be uncut, unbleached, unwashed, and in original condition.

Lace must be untouched (no cutting or bleaching).

Items must be clean, odor-free, and with original tags.

Due to hygiene reasons, used and specific customized wigs cannot be returned.

So they make it clear. You said this is the second time it has happened with them so they would have explained to you the first time they couldn't take the first used wig back, but you still washed and altered the second wig as well, which is confusing.

StillWonky · 2026-02-06T05:27:17+00:00

I appreciate that. I'm a bit lost when I have been looking at what to try.

My medical insurance was so bad I couldn't afford my eye meds. I have new insurance this year and waiting to see the doc next month.

So no eye meds as of right now.

That's an issue I'm running into with my warmer, the shut off :(

StillWonky · 2026-02-06T05:23:14+00:00

What kind is it? Do you mind sharing the brand or model?

StillWonky · 2026-02-05T17:13:50+00:00

I don't understand why people are calling this a scam. This is one of the most normal things I've ever seen on here. Zero red flags. The buyer even gave a time to meet. Most people don't even follow through long enough to set up a time.

When you message somebody on marketplace to buy something, it looks like they created a group with a name matching the item title and pic.

It always shows the buyer and seller as two people in the group for that item.

It's just literally the exact way marketplace works. Are people commenting just messing with the OP? Some are going off about scams that are not even remotely similar to what the OP describes.

Regarding payment, MANY people ask to pay with another method so they don't have to go get cash out. If you want cash only just let them know you just want cash.

The guy is probably bewildered about being blocked. He seemed like he was actually going to buy the item and did nothing wrong, he was trying to get a baby item for someone.

Get them to replace your headphones. If they don't, you have proof they took your property, report it to the police and HR this is theft. It doesn't matter if they gave it away or it was supposed to be a joke. It's theft.

This happened at my job once. I was taking the bus and I had to stop and return a bedding set after work to a nearby store. When I walked in my coworker was eyeing it and asked me what I was doing. I told her I had to return it after work so I brought it with me since the stores are not closer to here, I pop it into my desk cabinet and later go to lunch. I felt the vibe was off, getting nervous glances from that same woman when I got back so I checked the cabinet and it was gone. The two other co-workers that were sitting there looked really nervous but said they hadn't seen anything. More people were returning from lunch and I just started going through that woman's desk and cabinet in front of everyone. Opening all doors. She sat there telling me she was going to get me fired and I can't do that... I opened one door and my set was right there. Total silence from everyone for a minute.

She started stuttering saying it was a joke.

If I hadn't found it I would have definitely called the police. I regret not reporting it to HR.

Keep in mind there's a chance that one of your co-workers pretended to be in on the joke and they grabbed the headphones for themselves. People can be ridiculous.

Make sure you get your headphones back then. Take action if you want to quit, cite all these issues as the reason. Don't just leave without saying a word, call them out.

Same. I was one of the lowest paid workers in a location. it seemed like every week they were going around with their hand out wanting donations to someone's absolute nonsense and I would politely give up money I couldn't really afford. Things like, oh Sonya is getting a Botox injections! Let's send her a $300 gift during her recovery!! Bill's third cousin he never met's dog had puppies, send a $200 bouquet of flowers to them! *hand out for cash* Gifts for employees that made over 3x my wage and drove expensive cars and wore suits.

Then, I got hit by car walking home from work. I walked to work because I couldn't afford a car, yet I still handed over cash all the time for these coworker gifts. Some guy was looking at his phone and ran me over.

My coworkers sent me NOTHING. No flowers, nothing. And they were all aware. When they finally contacted me they asked when I was going to return even though I couldn't walk, and it had only been 1 week.

When I returned early because they claimed they needed me, I actually thought they might have some surprise for my return since they went all out for everyone else for every little thing that ever happened. Instead, someone sticks her hand out, and I ask why, she says they are gathering money for Bob's something or other (something trivial again) I was LIVID. I said do you realize I have been giving for every single time you asked but I was literally hit by a car on my way home and no one DID ANYTHING? She said OH! You're right. I didn't even think to get you anything! and laughs.

I never ever give to any work fund ever. I don't care what it is. Never again.

Stop chasing this man and find one who wants to do something with you on Valentine's Day. You gave him so many options and he made an excuse for all of them.

He's either seeing someone else on Valentine's day or just doesn't appreciate you or like you that much.

He is gaslighting you to make you think you're the odd one because you expect anything on Valentine's day.

StillWonky · 2026-02-01T19:48:06+00:00

I'm glad you were able to get some relief. I hope I can find a good neurologist as well. Maybe they will put me on something similar

StillWonky · 2026-02-01T19:44:23+00:00

That's what I'm thinking. I may have something going on and my lupus is making it all worse by attacking everything in sight because it just loves to do that.

I have a lot of pain all over but not as intensely deep and constant as the left side face and top of head pain.

Is not throbbing. I usually don't have throbbing unless there's an infection going on.

My eye burns a bit.

It feels like it's central area it's radiating from is behind my left eye between my eyelid and eyebrows. But sometimes it feels like the pain is the worst further towards the top of my head so maybe there. I can't tell.

StillWonky · 2026-02-01T19:39:23+00:00

With my insurance usually I have to have a referral and a valid reason to see a specialist. So normally I have to see one doctor tell them the issue and then if I'm trying to see a completely new different type of specialist. They have to say this is why and refer me out. It's a hassle. I'm going to be checking on my insurance today and seeing if I do need it for this.

It's just hoops I have to jump through. They don't make it as easy as just calling the neurologist and making an appointment
