I have to post on here about what just happened to me. I know people often have bad luck with Kijiji, whether it be crappy items, no shows, or whatever else. I’ve always had pretty decent luck with all of that. The few mishaps have been small and fixable. But not today. I’m far too annoyed over this, so I’m going to write it out here, and then keep moving.
Yesterday, I spoke for a pair of boots on a Facebook buy and sell page. Someone had already spoken for them, but I put my name in for seconds, and the first girl backed out. The seller said publicly that they were mine, and to message her for pick up. So I did. She wasn’t very quick to respond, but sometime in the middle of the night, she wrote me back and said she’d be around in the day. So I wrote her early this morning and told her to just name the time and my husband would jog over, since he was working in a nearby neighbourhood. She read my message and didn’t respond for a few hours. When she did respond, she said she had a friend over, and they wanted the boots, so “thanks for your interest.” Bah!!! Can they DO that?! Apparently making a deal and keeping your word isn’t worth too much. :/ So I’m feeling pretty merpy about that.
In other news, the framing has begun on the lot next to ours! Not only am I happy about this because I want neighbours, but because that man is providing hours of entertainment for my kids, haha! Thank you, Erictheframer.
At this point of the day, two are napping and two are quiet and playing lego. Time for me to buckle down and save some more posts. Seeing the progress is super motivating!!! Just wait until you guys see them!!!
