Here’s the scenario: you open Facebook Marketplace to see if you can snag something for a sweet deal. Instead, you find some of the most absurd listings that irked you at first but eventually made you bust out laughing.
Air from 2019, a crematorium on wheels, and a painting of Jesus embracing baby Grimace. These are the listings you’ve been dealing with. You’re not crazy enough to buy any of these items (yet), but they likely grabbed your attention and made you want to know more.
We have more where that came from as you scroll through this list. May this leave you thoroughly entertained today.

“There's a bit more security with Facebook Marketplace in that you can see the seller's profile to better vet if they are a real person versus using sites such as Craigslist, where there is a lot more anonymity,” designer Karen Nepacena told Good Housekeeping.

The First Thing I See When I Open Facebook
Today’s digital world revolves around algorithms, and Facebook Marketplace is no different. For Nepacena, this allows buyers to have a seemingly more serendipitous experience with the items they intend to purchase.
“Facebook Marketplace differs in that you can be ultra-specific on what you are searching for and wait for just the right item to come in your direction,” she said.
