It was good, but I always had a real problem with people not turning up. I think that because it was free, it led some people to think that it didn't matter if they didn't pick it up. If you stick it on eBay with a small price, it will be collected.

And this is why I always mark stuff on Facebook Marketplace with like a $5 price tag. I fully intend on giving it away for free, but the small price weeds out all of the people who only sort by “Free” and mass message every single poster.

It has its issues sure. But was overall a great platform. I made some life long friends from it too.
