'20 Tins of holiday popcorn (minus the caramel corn)': 20 Baffling online items that were actually for sale

You will never believe what people are selling online these days. What can't you buy online? These days, we have the blessing and curse of being able to buy and sell any item you'd ever want, not to mention hundreds of items that nobody in their right mind would ever want.

Don't let the Craigslisters of the world hear that, though. They believe that any random garbage found around their house has value. There are people who sell things like 100 packets of hot sauce. There is a person who is, with dead seriousness, trying to sell a set of gel nails that've been worn for two weeks already! There's no such things as an unsellable item to these people.

There's such a soft spot in my heart for sellers who try to charge an outrageous amount of money for their products, too. I'm talking about the gem-seller who seems to want hundreds of thousands of dollars for a precious stone that is, in their own words, "heavily flawed." It's very funny to see every time, although the seller must be stumped as to why no one is hitting them up with offers.

After you delve into the depths of online selling hilarity, read about the student who was always taking notes for an ungrateful classmate, until finally they snapped and decided that student could "have fun failing the final."

For $100?

via u/Tonyvairelles

You can't beat that price for what appears to be at least 9 TVs and some other assorted objects.
