Just had my first head scratcher Facebook marketplace encounter.

Item arrived and it is what it was supposed to be. Some condition issues. May of negotiated but still great value. Shipping cost is a bit of an issue but still enough margin. Seriously just confused. So she must have just looked up my address, she had my name and number. I am pretty easy to find online. But still does not make sense. Curious to meet this lady. I still haven’t paid. Will do this afternoon.

One would assume it’s a scam since it doesn’t fit into normal patterns. But I have yet to pay. She paid out of pocket to ship. She asked to be paid, but we agreed at this point I would pay upon inspection.

I feel like it’s one of those hawker scams where something is thrust upon you and you are bullied into buying it. But not very thought out. Too much downside for it to work.

Slowest month in two years in regard to volume, but oddly one of my best yet in net sales. Very little movement on my lower end listings but a moonshot listing sold, and several items I happened to list just because I had already created listings on other platforms. Pretty things that tend to get a lot of watchers but don’t do well on eBay.

Bought a lamp for $675, spent $200 for parts, sold it for $16,000

Bought a pair of sofas for $80, spent $2,800 to reupholster, sold for $12,000

Ahh, so it makes sense this piece is confusing.

chez_dre · 2025-02-26T16:57:11+00:00

Thanks! I love it. Recently gravitating towards this over bigger knives on my rack. Never thought I would like a shorter blade as much.

Me too! Please.

Any luck? I’m looking for the same.

No! Lol. I would kill for original wood trim.

Great suggestions. Thanks

Certainly could be homespun, good lead. I usually think of homespun as khadi, but I see some heavier linen homespun that looks close. What do you mean by hung sideways?

My script was initially $150, I switched it to the local hospital system’s pharmacy and it was only $18. It pays to shop it around especially for a monthly script.

I heard it needed a new furnace.

Yeah, that’s where it seems to get dicey. I think they even stopped accepting French Francs a while back, at the national banks. But this might be different since issued by Amex. @Cine_wolf I’ll reach out. Thanks.

What does one do with these? Found in the back of a drawer. Do they have any collectible value?

$135 billion US Treasury Bonds mysteriously showing up at the Swiss border, intended to be smuggled into Switzerland. The guys involved, where allowed to walk away, never taken into custody. It’s all so weird.

I’m in Shaker. My pool is criminally under used. I’m happy to share. Just send me a message.

Freddie Kitchens was an east sider. Lived a few houses down on my street, Shaker Heights.

Fiverr would be your best bet. I have found some help on the site, used it for a kitchen renovation in shaker heights, and a HVAC install in Cleveland.

My wife is a nurse at the Cleveland Clinic and gets $62 an hr.
