Please stop. I get it. 

I got a couple of free pints out of it. Don't give a shit that my movements in the pub are being sold to Vladimir Putin. Free beer.

Ridiculous villain bandwagons.

 

1) The media assault on Raheem Sterling. Now calls for him to not play in the World Cup because of a gun tattoo when he's described the meaning behind it.

It looks shit, but that's completely his choice. 

 

2) 480,000 have signed a petition for Sergio Ramos to be retrospectively punished for pulling Salah to the ground. No doubting Ramos is a helmet, but imagine the precedent that would set. Hot air all over the country.

British kids who say "mom". You're not American. It's mum or mam, end of!

time wasters when you sell something on Facebook marketplace!

 

Listed a fish tank and accessories. Bloke messages and asks loads of questions about it which I answer.

"I'll take it" - he says, "but I don't get paid until Friday"

So I agree to hold it for him

Friday comes rounds - I ask if he still wants it

"Yes, but can you deliver it as I don't drive"

Once again, I agree and say I'll drop it off on the way to work

"I won't have the money until tonight"

Why offer to buy something if you neither have the means of collecting it or paying for it!

I've never used FB marketplace only eBay but you have your fair share of time wasters on there too!

 

I sold a kids bike on there a while ago (collection only) went through the 7 day auction process and then the 'winner' messaged me saying she didn't realise she lived over 100 miles away from me so couldn't pick it up - idiot!!!

 

I then re-sold it to some woman who asked if I'd deliver it to her and she'd pay cash on delivery. She was 15 miles away but I agreed as I just wanted rid. When I got to her house she gave me a sob story that she didn't have the full amount so we agreed on £10 less because I'd had enough by that stage. Then she goes upstairs, brings down the kids money box, empties it out and pays me in coins!

 

Some people shouldn't be allowed access to the interweb really :rolleyes:

Same with Gumtree, I used it a while ago to get rid of some stuff and it was ok generally but a couple of real idiots contact you. One was a trumpet which gave a full description, price and then mentioned at the bottom "Collection only"

 

Someone emails from London "I want the trumpet, can you post it to London"

"I'm afraid this item is for collection only. Do you have someone who can collect it on your behalf?"

"No. Please post to London, I will send a cheque when I receive it"
