12 Items People Really Thought They Could Sell Online

People will try to sell literally anything online – a fact that you know is true if you’ve spent any time at all on Craigslist, Facebook marketplace, et al. The thing is, people must also be buying some of this weird stuff, because otherwise, wouldn’t people stop trying?

I don’t know the answer to that for sure, but I do know I would be shocked if any of these 12 items found a buyer.

12. Sir. SIR.

There is not one part of this post that is true.

Sure, you can call this a didgeridoo if you really want to

I’ll wait. Maybe I’m just not seeing one.

10. Yes, please I would like to invite a food borne illness into my home.

Ah, the memories of when I puked until I wanted to die!

Not Craigslist, but a little piece of food poisoning history can be yours for the right price.

6. “Artisan flatulence.” Y’all.

He marked the condition as “excellent.”

The delusional part is it’s massively underpriced. A simple repackaging and better marketing he could easily sell Artisan Flatulence™ for triple the price.

5. To be fair, it seems as if the bananas are. red herring.

It definitely catches your eye, doesn’t it?

4. That thing is even more terrifying than the original.

And if you’ve seen the original, you know that’s saying something.

2. Modified for what purpose, you ask?

Your guess is as good as mine.

1. No thanks. I prefer to drink my own.

I’m not paying someone else to drink wine, I can tell you that much.

These are really something, y’all. I can’t believe people found this stuff, never mind are willing to part with it!
