15 Images Of Marketplace Mayhem, From Used Walmart Bags To A Broken Ankle Monitor
When it comes to online shopping, most people do the usual thing of going to a major retailer, like Amazon, and picking out a new bike that will get sent to their house via a cruel and complicated supply chain built upon underpaid workers in large warehouses. After it arrives at your house, it still needs to be assembled, assuming their no defects involved. If these things seem too difficult, there's always the secondhand market.
Where that used to involve going to a secondhand or swap shop, or even Goodwill, that's all changed with Facebook and Craigslist taking the charge in allowing people to sell anything with a simple picture and a short description. When we say anything, we mean ANYTHING, as you'll see with these absolutely out-of-left-field and insane examples of marketplace mayhem.

Half A Casket
There are so many questions involved with this one, but the saving grace is that it doesn't have any dirt on it.
Walmart Bags

Teeth

At least they're honest, they know full well this is a weird item. It makes sense that they would want to preserve the whitest pair of British Teeth in existence.
Empty Alcohol Bottles
This feels less like an ad and more like openly bragging that you have dangerous alcoholism.
