This is why I give things away to friends and friends of friends. If they ask to borrow something that I’m happy to get rid of, I tell them they can borrow it on the condition that they never bring it back or even mention it to me again.
Why yall so scared all the time. You’re more likely to die on your way to giving the item away than the buyer murdering you.
It’s more the people on kijiji/FB Marketplace are the scummiest most entitled people you’ve ever met. You’d find a more wholesome group at the cantina on tatooine.
They don’t show up when agreed, they want free delivery, you get to the meet spot or they show up and they only have half the money you agreed upon as a shitty form of haggling.
I had one lady tried to get us to take a chair we drove to her house back because she changed her mind (she said she was disabled so we delivered it to her, I don’t think she was because she was just a piece of shit all around when we got there).
The only people who I’ve ever been happy to give stuff to are the ones who seem to be looking for free stuff, so now we just give stuff away. People show up, they’re excited, there’s no haggling, it’s great.

Someone did that to me and I was so mad I was going to just leave. Surprise, they had the extra money the whole time! Actual garbage people who do that. I’d rather throw the thing away than get hustled like that.
I would still leave, fuck that.
If it was a 9$ blender I’d smash it to pieces in front of them before leaving.
I sell shit like this regularly for the past decade, 0 issues
I’m not leaving my home for $9. Y’all that hard up?
When she says do it, you do it…it’s not the 9$, it’s the weeks of torment afterwards and having the blender still in the house to remind her
If I ever get married I hope it isn’t to someone that let’s the existence of a blender impact them in any way shape or form. And if it does, they at least have the emotional maturity to be able to handle that themselves, because it is so stupidly trivial.
Inb4 you don’t understand you need to care for your wife. There a difference between caring for the emotional and physical needs of your partner, and enabling whatever childish dependency that is.
My ex wife would make me do things like this all the time. It happens once in a while in every relationship I’m sure, but if it’s routine it’s not worth it. I used to say I had a boss and work and a boss at home but my boss at work was much more reasonable. I realized how much bullshit I was putting up with under the guise of “happy wife, happy life”.
This gives big “are the straights okay” vibes
Buyer-“Hay kid i got the good stuff, come closer”
Seller-“Umm your the guy selling the blender right?”
Seller-“Blender?”
Your characters are so confused in this scene.
In Germany it’s normal that people come to your home and pick it up 🤷
But can be sketchy when you trying to buy sth yourself :D
That’s normal in the US too. The only time I’ve met someone elsewhere was at a cafe, so we could set up the thing I was purchasing on a table and power it on to test.
Ah ok, I thought you were too afraid to let strangers come to your apartment or sth :D
