Almost ripped off rant.
I was selling a juicer on Facebook and got contacted by a guy who wanted it. I placed it for $40 OBO. The guy offered 25 i upped to 30. Well we were supposed to meet at a Walmart in the morning but he didn't show. He contacted me and said he could pick it up. I gave him my address and he came. Well I gave him the juicer and he gave me the money. He already had it rolled up in his hand but I decided to just count it. This jerk gave me four dollars!!!!! I said " sorry but we agreed on $30 this is 4." He looked all surprised and said he had gotten the wrong money. He got his wallet out and pulled out another little roll of money and counted it and it was 6 dollars. He handed that to me and I said that's 10. He huffed and gave me a twenty. But what if wouldn't have seen he'd only given me 4?!? It made me so mad!!! Rant over

I would have told him to get off my property if he still tried paying me only $20 after all that when we agreed on $30

Good thing you didn't do porch pick up. You would have been out that money for sure. Maybe even all of it. I hate people like that. What makes them think that's ok?

If it was off a buy and sell site than you should report him to the admins. It's not okay that he did that to you! Even though he finally coughed up the money that was owed for the item, had you not checked he would of gotten away with ripping you off. So sorry that he tried to do that to you but so glad that you caught him!

This is why I won't sell things until SO is home, nobody would dare mess with him lol he's covered in tatts and knows martial arts.

I'm the type that gets embarrassed to count in front of the person so I would've gotten ripped off in the scenario ? glad you counted.

That guys a scumbag! I've been lucky so far not be ripped off, but this is why I like to have my bf around when I do the exchange cuz he's a lot more careful and street smart than me. I trust people too much and don't like to count the money in front of the person either. This story taught me not to give two ??'s now though lol.

Being covered in ink and knowing martial arts that a random person wouldn't know you practice won't stop someone from being ripped off pp. Some of the gentlest people I know have a s*** load of ink and some of the toughest that people would be fools to mess with have zero.

Same as @ patty.
Good thing you caught him.

U don't see anything wrong with giving a complete stranger your address???!! Maybe it's just me, I don't trust anyone.

Please don't ever give your address to anyone. People like him are scoping out more than just what you're selling.

I sold a $200 speaker to a guy a couple months ago. He offered me $150 so I went for it because we needed the money. After he bailed the first time we were supposed to meet, he said he could do $125. I said okay fine whatever. Well he finally came and got it one day (after like 3 weeks of saying he was coming), I had my fiancé go outside and meet with him because he sketched me out. This dude gave us $119 and the best part is that at least $50 of it was all in ones. ? Like thanks dude.

I would rather take $4 than ever invite a stranger to my home ?

I had something like this happen to me. I can't remember what I was selling but it was for $20. The lady came by, gave me a $20 bill rolled up, and then got in her car. I unrolled the $20 and it was only half the bill! I was lucky to catch her before she left, got another $20, and gave her the ripped one. People think you don't pay attention but we do when it comes to money.

My town is petty enough so that if anyone tries to pull that, they're put on blast. Rude, but effective.
