I (13) dream, like probably many others my age, of things like a cool PC or laptop.
I recently came across Facebook Marketplace via TikTok, and since then, I've been checking it out daily and daydreaming. 😅
And then I somehow came across the search term “Nintendo Switch” and saw offers that were under 150€ and cost at least 800€ RRP.
Now I'm asking myself whether that's believable.

Loading...Hi, I've never sold anything on Shpock before. Now someone bought something from me and said they needed my cell phone number. Is this some kind of scam, or is this really how it works on Shpock for some reason? thanks in advance
For example, the push function and best matches. Did you notice that your items sold better after using it?
Hi, there's a sneaker at Nike that I could pick up in store today, if I pay. However, I'm undecided between two shoe sizes (41/42) and I'm not sure. I would have to drive an hour, but another customer might buy it. All sizes are available online, but I'm on vacation for a week starting…
Hi, I want to buy this 2000+ piece rubber band kit from Temu (costs $7.99), but I don't know if it's safe. Many people say Temu is a scam, and some even send fake orders. The photos also confuse me. Two kits are shown, but I don't know exactly which one I'll get. So I'm…
I sent someone a message. The person saw it, but I don't see the little picture next to the message. Then there's the person's name, "unsent." I've never seen that before. I only know that message was deleted or recalled. 🤷🏼♀️ So I thought "unsent" meant something else. Since then, it's always shown as a…
This is always the problem with fairytale prices – it is then unfortunately also a fairy tale, which is often not considered right as a teenager without great life experience.

Maybe fraud, maybe not. It would be necessary to check the parts that are installed and if necessary parts are broken, or the seller really has no idea and does not know before.
Can’t be answered on a flat-rate basis.
There are also fraudsters, of course. So always depends on the individual case.
I personally had similar experiences with a MacBook, which later actually turned out to be a scam. However, I have paid via PayPal goods and services to which my problem in the app simply explains and get my entire money back. This only works with PayPal goods and services.
Never, ever, I would never buy something on FB Marketplace that I don’t personally first View and can be checked.
If only one of them (view, check) is not possible – no matter what reason – the seller can continue to look at how he gets sold his stuff. At least not me.
Has anyone experience?
