I bought a PS5 Pro on Facebook marketplace for real cheap from a mother whose son flunked his summer school courses. She told me "I said I was going to sell all his games, so now I have to." Then I told my PS5 for the same cost as what I bought the Pro for.

We had a kid on our team get red-carded, a couple hours after the game his mother had his PS 4 listed because of it. In retrospect, that kid had some serious issues that blind retribution-style punishment was never going to solve.

Damn I love a good deal but I don't know if I could have done that to the kid. I might have walked knowing that information.

And then the next guy would get a screaming deal instead and the end result is the same. You’re not doing anything to the kid, he already did it to himself, mom told him what was gonna happen.

Damn I wish marketplace just had a dedicated section for "teen punishment" where you're guaranteed the best deal to make it sting even more

I doubt the kid suddenly became an angel afterwards though.

The craziest thing is find any deal on FB Marketplace. Anytime I have ever checked it its filled with people thinking they have some rare artifact and want more than a new copy of the thing I'm looking for.
