I feel like many people treat FBM as window shopping - they like the thrill of inquiring about buying something and pretending they have it but then don't bother committing to picking it up.
I've had a few wins so far and pocketed some cash which is nice. I can see why people do a whole side hustle with this - though the cons would outweigh the pros for me pretty fast heh.
I realise I should've gotten an idea of what I needed to cull a lot earlier though. Thankfully my angel of a friend has offered to let me dump all the crap at hers so it can be flogged/hard rubbished/sent to the tip.
