DO NOT BUY FURNITURE FROM QUARANTINE CRAIGSLIST!!!! (un: j.calhoun)

[bardish]

WARNING DO NOT BUY USED FURNITURE OFF THE NETWORK!! Some of the sellers here are VERY unscrupulous! I am now the proud owner of:

- 1 cursed endtable (IT KEEPS INSULTING MY MOTHER WHEN I'M TRYING TO SLEEP??)

- 1 set of drawers that was housing a colony of space termites

- 1 mattress that is stained with either blood or cranberry juice or chocolate i'm not sure which. maybe all 3? now i have to sleep on a futon like i'm 19 yrs old again and it's KILLING my back

Anyway is anyone in the market for some gently used furniture?

[ jk jk he's not a big enough to dick to unload this NIGHTMARE FURNITURE onto anybody else. ]

oh yeah I did. but clearly i'm fine! I mean i have a seriously gross mattress now, but i'm fine

No, I mean if you had someone with you, you had a witness and could report them.

Or, had someone else help you find them and return the mattress.

Why did you buy a used one anyway?

[ Jeff is about to give the same answer he's given the others, but now HE HAS TO WONDER: ]

why is the concept of used furniture so weird to people here?

[talentedscavenger]

[...Well he's going to get a different answer out of her.]

It's not a weird concept--not to me. Getting used furniture and making it your own is one thing.

Getting a used mattress and wonder if you're sleeping on blood or cranberry juice is another.

[bardish]

Well you do have a point there. but in my defense most used mattresses don't come with blood OR cranberry juice

[talentedscavenger]

Then, we're back at my original point: why did you buy a mattress with those stains?!

[bardish]

I'm pretty sure i already answered that question

besides
I didn't want to inconvenience him by asking too many questions
