Who Buys This?! — The Wildest From FB Marketplace!
28 Apr 2025Facebook Marketplace is like the attic of your house — it’s where people stash everything they’re too sentimental to throw away, unsure how it even ended up in their home, or just desperate to pass off to someone else for a few bucks (or sometimes a few thousand). And sometimes, the listings go completely off the rails! We’ve rounded up some of the weirdest things people actually tried to sell there. Don’t ask why — just read on!
The Cheater’s Ring
If you thought Facebook Marketplace was just for couches and kettles, think again. People sell everything there — even painfully personal items. Take this shiny, perfectly nice ring, for example.
@Idiots of FB Marketplace/facebook.com
Except it comes with a backstory no one wants to wear on their finger again. Sure, it’s expensive — you wouldn’t just toss it. But there’s still something both wild and absurd about reselling a ring that carries the emotional baggage of a betrayal. You gotta wonder — who’s brave enough to buy that kind of energy?
When the Coffin Wasn’t Needed
Where else can you witness someone seriously trying to sell… a coffin? A brand new one, too! Turns out, the person it was intended for miraculously survived a fatal diagnosis.
@Idiots of FB Marketplace/facebook.com
Great news for the family — not so great for whoever now owns a very expensive, very unneeded box. So what do you do? Facebook Marketplace, of course. Where else are you gonna offload an unused coffin with minimal questions asked?
A Potato Dip That Looks Like Cuba
Some folks see a snack, others see cartographic magic. One seller decided that their McDonald’s potato dip — which happened to resemble the shape of Cuba — was worth a solid thousand bucks.
@Idiots of FB Marketplace/facebook.com
Why? Your guess is as good as ours! Maybe it’s an art piece or someone really loves Cuba… Or maybe it's a prank that escalated way too far. Either way, it's so weird…
“I’ll Glue Your Remotes Together” — The Service We Never Knew We Needed
Marketplace isn’t just for selling weird objects — there’s also a whole world of strange services. Take this gem: someone offering to come to your home and glue all your remotes into one, so you’ll never lose them again.
@Idiots of FB Marketplace/facebook.com
It’s the kind of chaotic energy that makes perfect sense in a very specific moment of life. One remote to rule them all. Of course, when you lose that one, good luck.
When the Couch Died but Creativity Lived
Now this one’s pure DIY madness: someone replaced a missing couch cushion with a wooden chair. Like, literally stuck it into the couch. And yes, there are photos to prove it.
@Idiots of FB Marketplace/facebook.com
The whole thing’s up for $10. Part of you thinks, “What kind of Frankenstein furniture is this?” The other part is like, “Honestly… not the worst idea for a studio apartment with no dining space.”
AirPod Case With One Silent Bud
Half the tech, half the value, right? One seller decided it was worth listing their AirPods case — complete with one very dead earbud.
@Idiots of FB Marketplace/facebook.com
Maybe they thought someone would want it for parts. Or just… for vibes? Sure, you might be able to use the charger. But let’s be real — this one’s better left to someone else’s regret pile.
A Coke Can With Nothing Inside
For $350, you could buy a weekend getaway… or, apparently, a completely empty can of Coca-Cola.
@Idiots of FB Marketplace/facebook.com
The seller swears it’s a rare “factory error” that left the can dry as a bone. And thus, it’s now a collectible. Is it wild? Yes. Is it genius marketing? Also yes. Will someone actually buy it? That’s the real cliffhanger.
A Crashed Mercedes for “Only” $10K
And of course, it wouldn’t be Marketplace without someone trying to sell a completely totaled car for a ridiculous price. This one’s a Mercedes — flipped on its roof, glass everywhere, the whole Fast & Furious treatment — listed for a casual $10,000.
@Idiots of FB Marketplace/facebook.com
Hey, at least they were honest with the photos! Maybe someone’s out there thinking, “I could fix that.” Spoiler: you probably can’t.
Life-Size Edward Cullen Cutout
On the endless scroll of Marketplace, a cardboard heartthrob from Twilight suddenly appears. Yes, you're not imagining things — it's a life-size Edward Cullen cutout!
@Idiots of FB Marketplace/facebook.com
Someone clearly lived through a teenage crush and is now ready to let their paper beloved go. He looks decent — like he’s spent the last ten years standing in the corner, silently watching guests. The only question is: how exactly was he “used”?
Practical and Romantic?
Now this one’s really down to earth. Someone listed a cart — not for gardening but, according to them, specifically made to transport their drunk wife home from parties.
@Idiots of FB Marketplace/facebook.com
A hundred bucks for romance and practicality! The main thing is, it works. But we are curious — did they mention any weight limits or levels of intoxication? Or is this a universal vehicle?
Purely for the “Right” Mood
Decor is a matter of taste. But when you see a painting of a plane in flames — full-on burning — you can’t help but wonder: are you sure that’s something you want to look at every day?
@Idiots of FB Marketplace/facebook.com
Maybe someone just wants to keep guests away while setting the tone with a truly unforgettable vibe. Either way, it’s wild that someone thought this was worth selling.
How Do You Unsee That?
Sometimes you see a product photo and just scream internally. This is one of those. A cringe-worthy full-family Simpson costume, apparently sewn by someone in a drunken haze.
@Idiots of FB Marketplace/facebook.com
And no, not because of the color — but the heads… oh, the heads. These yellow costumes with giant glued-on eyes could easily star in your nightmares. Even Halloween didn’t deserve this.
Couch Made of Old Jeans...
Of course, here comes some next-level interior “design”: someone took old jeans, turned them into covers, and fully wrapped a couch. They even gave it a creative name — jouch (jeans + couch). On one hand, it’s recycling and supposedly smart use of old stuff.
@Idiots of FB Marketplace/facebook.com
On the other — it’s hard to look at, and there’s real secondhand shame for the creators of this “masterpiece.” Especially if the jeans were worn and you spot, say, a pocket… in a very questionable place.
Tampon Decor
Yep, these are actual little ghosts made out of… tampons. Real ones! Unused, thank goodness but still. Googly eyes glued on, the shape is there — the kind of “cuteness” that gives you chills.
@Idiots of FB Marketplace/facebook.com
Please don’t show this to kids, or they’ll definitely want some of their own without knowing the true nature of these “ghosts.” Although, who knows — maybe next year this will be a trend and we’ll all be sticking these “decorations” on our windows?
$45 for Art or for Shame?
If you thought wine bottle decor died out with your aunt’s country house in 2007, think again.
@Idiots of FB Marketplace/facebook.com
Here comes the “wine tree”: two empty bottles gently hung on a tiny, bald tree. And here it is! A piece of art. Price? $45. Wouldn’t it be better to just spend that money on a few nice bottles of wine?
Logic Has Left the Chat!
Classic Marketplace move: the description claims “no pets on the couch,” but the photo features a furry criminal proudly posing on that very couch.
@Idiots of FB Marketplace/facebook.com
Maybe it’s just a coincidence? Maybe the cat doesn’t count? Or maybe it’s just a clever way to add some “cozy vibes” to the picture. One thing’s for sure — don’t ask what’s under that couch. Or who.
$50 for Cringe
Okay, drawing pets is sweet. But when a listing boldly says: “I only draw dogs, no cats,” you have to ask — why? Personal grudge? Principles? Revenge for chewed-up slippers? And if only the drawings were stunning… but no.
@Idiots of FB Marketplace/facebook.com
We’re talking “my niece drew this during recess” quality. Still, if you’ve got a sense of humor, maybe it’s worth it. Imagine ordering a portrait of your ex… as a pug.
Van Gogh Glasses
Someone particularly “creative” decided to sell glasses for $100 — with just one arm. Yep, you heard that right!
@Idiots of FB Marketplace/facebook.com
They’re even marketed as “Van Gogh style” glasses. Because, well… you know, one ear. Sure, originality is great but a hundred bucks for half a pair? Maybe this one’s for folks who enjoy a weird little prank on someone. We’re not sure either.
Culinary Innovation (That No One Asked For)
When life gives you an old toilet — make… a grill out of it. And sell it for 50 pounds. You’ve got to admit, it’s definitely an outside-the-box idea — and about as far from appetizing as it gets.
@Idiots of FB Marketplace/facebook.com
This is one of those cases where you really don’t want to know the backstory. And you definitely don’t ask what’s already been grilled in it. This is peak cringe-level innovation — for the brave, or the very hungry.
The Saddle Mystery
And now, the mystery of the century! A saddle is up for sale — but here’s the twist: it’s not shown on a horse but on a woman on all fours. Yes, like that!
@Idiots of FB Marketplace/facebook.com
No extra details given but… let’s just say questions arise. Is this for horseback riding… or role-playing? Either way, it’s one of those listings where it’s best not to ask too many questions. Or buy it.
Sheep Seat with a Surprise
At first glance — the cutest sheep-shaped seat you’ve ever seen. Fluffy, cozy, practically begging to live in a nursery (though it’s kind of cringe but hey, personal taste). But… the back opens up to reveal a hidden compartment.
@Idiots of FB Marketplace/facebook.com
And here’s where the imagination runs wild. What do you store in there? Secrets? Candy? A bottle of wine? Or maybe something more ominous — like a stash hidden from kids and spouses alike? This sheep clearly holds more than meets the eye.
Table with Human Legs — Seriously?
Some people just love unique furniture… and apparently hope someone else will too. Here we’ve got a table — and instead of regular legs, it has human ones.
@Idiots of FB Marketplace/facebook.com
Not real (Thanks God), just mannequin parts but it’s giving way too literal “living room” vibes. Is this furniture as art? Or a cry for help that only a therapist could understand? We’ll let you be the judge.
Sunbathing Gorilla for Your Garden
If you thought garden swans were strange, wait until you meet this tanning gorilla. A lawn ornament featuring a hefty primate mid-sunbathe. And honestly? Why not!
@Idiots of FB Marketplace/facebook.com
Some people have gnomes — some people have gorillas. The real question is: will your guests feel chill hanging out with this laid-back lady (or is it a dude?)? Or will she steal the spotlight at every backyard BBQ?
Green Man Chair
Ever sat on moss? Ever wanted to? Because someone covered a regular chair entirely in what looks like fake grass or moss. It honestly looks like it was abandoned in someone’s garden for ten years and just decided to embrace nature.
@Idiots of FB Marketplace/facebook.com
Maybe the idea was to blend the furniture into the landscape? Either way, for allergy sufferers (and anyone with a sense of design) — probably a hard pass.
Christmas Ornament with… Beans?
You thought you’d seen weird tree decor? Think again. Here’s a clear ornament — with a single baked bean inside. Why? How? For what purpose? No one knows!
@Idiots of FB Marketplace/facebook.com
All that’s missing is a candle and a label that says “minimalism is powerful.” Who’s the target buyer? A health-food enthusiast with a passion for irony? Maybe!
Sandals That Have Seen Life (and a Few Puddles)
Now this is a find — sandals for $30. Though they look like they've been through storms, music festivals, and a couple of days in hell.
@Idiots of FB Marketplace/facebook.com
Dirty, worn to the state of "mom, please take me home," but the seller swears they were "worn no more than six times." Uh-huh, six times… passed around the neighbors in a relay race, maybe. Honestly, it feels like even the sandals themselves are begging for retirement.
Who Needs Empty Toilet Paper Rolls?
If you thought empty rolls were trash, then clearly you’re out of the loop. The seller listed them as — we’re not even sure what... possibly "crafting materials"? We don’t even have other guesses.
@Idiots of FB Marketplace/facebook.com
Apparently, you’re supposed to build, I don’t know… a tower out of them? In any case, the fact remains: someone decided that trash is the new product. The only question is — will anyone actually buy it? (Probably not.)
Wooden Fireplace — Yes, You Heard That Right!
The fire at the heart of the home, warmth, coziness... and zero fire safety. Because this is a fireplace entirely made of wood. Yes, the very thing meant to house fire but it’ll likely just burn itself to the ground in a few minutes.
@Idiots of FB Marketplace/facebook.com
Maybe it’s a joke, or maybe it’s a bravery test but this thing looks like a one-time experience. Literally: one evening — and hello, fire department.
Jackie Kennedy Could End Up in Your Home!
And of course, there’s the porcelain doll that kinda looks like Jackie Kennedy… if someone tried to paint her from memory 30 years later. She’s sitting in a wicker chair, with a face that says she knows all your secrets!
@Idiots of FB Marketplace/facebook.com
Kinda creepy — the perfect gift for someone who misbehaved all year. Or for your worst enemy — especially if they’re scared of dolls. Keep this one in your back pocket!
An Icicle for $200?
Now that’s winter inspiration! A massive icicle shaped — well, let’s just say it “suspiciously resembles a sausage.” Asking price? $200! What do you get for your money?
@Idiots of FB Marketplace/facebook.com
A unique icicle shape, guaranteed short lifespan, and your bank account $200 lighter. Perfect gift for someone who “has everything” — especially if they live in a warm country. But we’d probably pass on this one...
Harry Potter from a Horror Movie
This is a new level of cringe. Someone is selling a doll that’s kind of supposed to be Harry Potter (if you squint), complete with glasses made out of real human teeth.
@Idiots of FB Marketplace/facebook.com
Yes, real teeth, arranged in a circle. So many questions, and frankly, we don’t want any answers. For fans of real magic and horror — a must-have.
Baby Rocker Made From… a Shopping Basket
Someone decided that parenting is no reason to spend money, and put together a baby rocker using… an ordinary supermarket basket. This "engineering marvel" is going for $15.
@Idiots of FB Marketplace/facebook.com
Honestly, it’s either genius-level trolling or someone really doesn’t like children. I can already hear it: baby rocking gently while mom goes, “At least you learned what saving money looks like as a kid.”
A McDonald’s Slide for $5,000
No joke: a giant, old playground slide that’s apparently from an abandoned McDonald’s. And it’s not just listed — it’s priced at $5,000!
@Idiots of FB Marketplace/facebook.com
Looks like someone walked past an abandoned lot and thought, “Mine.” Why not sell it? People are resourceful, sure. Just make sure it’s pickup only… and maybe bring a crane.
Antique Mirror and Spider-Girl in Frame
Yes, you read that right — the photo shows a mirror listed as "antique." Maybe it is… in an alternate universe.
@Idiots of FB Marketplace/facebook.com
But the real show-stealer is the seller, who — in classic marketplace fashion — took the mirror photo while crouching like a spider. We don’t even want to imagine what the rest of their listings look like...
Breast Milk Soap — Yum?
Seriously, for $6 you can get handmade soap… made from breast milk. Yep, with a proud label saying “all natural”!
@Idiots of FB Marketplace/facebook.com
Well, what can we say — some might find it eco-friendly and heartwarming. Others — a nightmare sitting on their bathroom shelf. Makes you wonder if you get to choose the scent? Or is it just a surprise… like most things in life.
Puppy Doll Straight From Hell
Honestly, it’s hard to describe this one... Someone crafted a "puppy" from an old sock, added some googly eyes, and to really crank up the horror — stuck in a human denture. A puppy smiling with your grandma’s teeth.
@Idiots of FB Marketplace/facebook.com
Definitely not for kids. Probably not for adults either! But hey, now you know where all the lonely socks go.
A Bag of Dog Hair… for $300!
And now, the cringe peak — a real bag of dog hair. For $300. So what do we have here? Some people collect stamps, others coins, and some… bags of mystery dog fur. Business idea? Or just someone with too much free time?
@Idiots of FB Marketplace/facebook.com
One thing’s for sure — the marketplace continues to amaze us. Got any ideas what someone might do with a sack of dog hair? Because we’ve got nothing.
Denim “Shorts”… or Are They Underwear?
Sometimes, you just want to say: thank you for not making them thongs. These denim “shorts” are so short, the fabric ends before it even begins. Apparently, someone thought, “It’s hot, it’s summer, who needs extra material?”
@Idiots of FB Marketplace/facebook.com
Who wears these and where — that’s the real mystery. Though, maybe they’d work as emergency swimwear if you forgot your bikini at the beach…
Laptop With a Bonus?
It all started out fine — someone’s selling a used laptop. Seems normal but then they took a photo of the screen… with their reflection clearly visible. In nothing but underwear — or are those shorts… doesn’t matter, still cringe!
@Idiots of FB Marketplace/facebook.com
Classic seller move! And now you can’t even tell the laptop model or its condition — because the whole screen is taken up by that selfie. Question is: does the seller come with it, or do you have to pay extra?
Horror Clock
If you were scared of clowns as a kid — bad news ahead. Someone made a wall clock with either a doll’s head or a creepy clown face at every hour mark.
@Idiots of FB Marketplace/facebook.com
Looking at this daily is less about checking the time, and more like a bravery test. Wouldn’t be surprised if it came with a therapist included.
DIY Skates of Doom
$35 for a pair of galoshes with office chair caster wheels screwed on. Marketed as “roller skates.” Uh-huh. Seems like someone got inspired by TikTok and decided engineering is just a vibe, not a profession.
@Idiots of FB Marketplace/facebook.com
First, you roll to the store, then straight to the ER. Highly recommended… if you’ve been meaning to test your health insurance.
Communion Cake
You think this is a joke? Think again. Someone’s selling a half-eaten cake meant for church communion. For 20 euros! Looks like they couldn’t finish it and figured they’d recoup the investment.
@Idiots of FB Marketplace/facebook.com
Best not to ask whose communion this was or how it went. If you’re short on cringe and carbs — this is your moment!
A Lamp Made From A Real Human Skull
In case you have always wanted to add a bit of horror to your life — here you go, a lamp made from a real human skull. Yes, not plastic, not plaster — a fully real one.
@Idiots of FB Marketplace/facebook.com
Just imagine walking into a room, turning on the light… and getting stared back at by empty eye sockets. And someone actually thought this was a good idea!
For True Aesthetes… And Psychotherapists
If you look at this "piece of art" from a distance, at first it might seem kind of cute: a little doll just sitting there. But then you take a closer look… and realize she’s holding her own head in her hands.
@Idiots of FB Marketplace/facebook.com
And inside that head, surprise — there’s a flower pot growing! The cringe level here is truly off the charts.
A Bag Of Air For 550 Dollars — Don’t Miss Your Chance!
Yes, you read that correctly. Just a bag filled with air. For 550 bucks! Maybe it’s Bradley Cooper’s exhale?
@Idiots of FB Marketplace/facebook.com
Or air straight from the Maldives? No one knows but the seller is confident — it’s totally worth it. Especially if you happen to collect… nothing.
A Painting Of “Jesus With A Lamb” but With Brad Pitt’s Face
You’d think this is just religious art. But nope! Someone took the classic image of Jesus holding a lamb and replaced his face with... Brad Pitt’s.
@Idiots of FB Marketplace/facebook.com
Apparently, the spiritual path now leads directly through Hollywood. One thing is certain — this piece of art will not leave priests or movie fans indifferent.
A Throne For The King Of Bathroom Business
Yes, you’re seeing it right — this is a toilet. But not just any toilet — a MAJESTIC one! It’s shaped like a royal horse, and you literally have to climb on top of it like a real king.
@Idiots of FB Marketplace/facebook.com
Seriously, this isn’t just a bathroom fixture, it’s a full-on performance. All that’s missing are some trumpets, and you’re ready to handle your royal duties with dignity.
TV Mount Tested On A Real Human
How do you check if a TV mount is sturdy? Easy — hang from it! That’s exactly what the seller did. He took a photo of himself hanging on the mount, and proudly should’ve added to the listing: “It held!”
@Idiots of FB Marketplace/facebook.com
Well, what can we say, reliability is visible. Definitely worth buying if you want to watch TV without fearing it will crash to the floor.
Mannequin Legs — Sold Individually…
Here’s something for collectors of… women’s legs. Mannequin legs, of course! Sold separately, 45 dollars per leg. Why? Well, maybe for a trendy shop window, or maybe just to have them standing in the corner scaring your guests.
@Idiots of FB Marketplace/facebook.com
So many possibilities, though not all your friends will understand your new interior choices.
The World Has Gone Completely Mad!
This is exactly the case where all you can do is look and remain silent. Picture this: two human legs in shoes, with what looks like a shirt thrown over them… and that’s a stool. Someone seriously came up with the idea to SIT on that.
@Idiots of FB Marketplace/facebook.com
It’s hard to tell if it’s furniture or a joke. But one thing is clear: the creator had a wild imagination — and no one stopped them.
