Facebook Buy Swap and Sell purchases #5

Hi,

So I wanted to go through some of the items I have bought from Buy Swap and Sell Facebook groups. As I use products I will definitely find time to review them.

The lashes I picked up were relatively painless, but the next three items I picked up all on the same day and boy was it painful. Happy reading!






Model Rock Lashes in Demi Wispies 8 pairs for $15
I bought these lashes from a girl in Derrimut and apart from her not having any change for a 20, it was relatively painless. Have yet to try the lashes yet but hopefully they look amazing!














Too Faced Cocoa Powder Foundation $10
The girl I bought this Too Faced Powder Foundation from was a pain in the ass.
Let me tell you why, out of all the purchases I have made through a Facebook Buy, Swap and Sell groups this has to be the worst.
When I initially contacted the girl we agreed to meet at High Point Shopping Centre the following day. I was baby sitting my baby cousin and was going to pop up to High Point after. The shopping centre isn't far from my auntys so essentially I was already half way there. Then I start driving and she messages me saying she has an appointment she forgot about. This was fine as she agreed to another meet up. Mind you she still hasn't posted that the item was sold pending pick up so other people thought it was still available.. which was further aggravation. The day before we were meant to meet up I message her to find out if its still okay to meet up, she sends back 3 words.
I'm in Sydney.
So I'm fuming because, who just skips states and organises to meet up with someone. She then proceeds to block me from messaging her after I ask when she will be back so I can come get the product. I'm pisssed. I wake up the arvo that I was meant to pick it up and apparently shes back in Melbourne because shes posted more stuff that she needs to get rid of asap. I manage to talk to her on the original post and we meet up. I get the product and its well and truly bee used, to the point its hit pan in the middle. She didn't even give e the chance to check the item before she snatches the money and walks away. She didnt say a word. 

















Urban Decay Naked Illuminated Shimmering Powder for Face and Body $20
I bought this from a girl in Burnside, and I swear she was like 12. There was a lot of back and forth with the kid too. Unrealistic pick up times and locations until she finally must have taken a sick day so I picked it up after I picked up the Too Faced Powder Foundation.

 

















Nyx Born to Glow Liquid Illuminator $5

The girl I bought this illuminator from was located in Geelong, so a good half hour drive. No, I did not drive half an hour for a $5 item, she also had a Mac foundation brush she was selling for $35 that my Mum wanted. She was another pain in the ass, she had been houding me for weeks about make up she was selling and then I decide I want to buy some and it has to be picked up asap. Load of bull hocky!
She also said she would drop it off and then changed her mind and it was a royal mess, mind you the whole time I was saying I will come and get it give me a time. She was also late and made me wait around for 30 minutes at the place she wanted to meet at. She also did a walk buy and handed me the items and walked off so yeah didn't get a lot of time to check the items. There is stuff all left in the illuminator so luckily I got it for half what her original price was and the brush was dirty.
