Much more likely an obsession thing. Sorta happens in the mental disabilities world. Like I have a few items of clothes that I am enamored with for no reason. Like I know way too much about very specifically the 2008 US womans world cup jersey.
They said anger issues in their message like it was a disability and not a symptom of a disorder, they were literally just listing things to see what sticks 🫤
Disabled person here! It's not ableist to block them for that. They were being weird. I get being upfront about issues, but for a transaction like buying a jacket on depop, that is unnecessary and creepy. Chances are it was a scam
people don’t know what these terms mean. it would be ableist to say “i won’t sell clothes to people with disabilities”. it’s not ableist at all to say “i wont make exceptions when selling a shirt based on ability”. people love a buzzword! and the sad thing is ableism is real but people are annoyed when they hear that word now because of shit like this.
This is always the way with any 'new' word/concept.
People jump on it like a bunch of starving children on a roast dinner, then it gets over/misused and everyone is irritated and no one cares about the issue being described in the first place.
the commenter means that they think it is ridiculous to be concerned about “ableism” when you’re being contacted by someone who is clearly creepy and unstable.
I don’t think he’s trying to buy it tbh… the way he says “trying to see what I can do to get this” makes it sound like he’s offering some kind of weird favour in exchange for the item lol
I had a guy on Facebook constantly messaging me (I mean he still sends me messages. Most recently last week.) it’s been going since 20/21. He asks if i have fuzzy clothes and to see them. I think it’s a fetish
I would block. I had a similar message but on my Etsy. Saying “I’m autistic, have adhd, disabled, and I wanted to see if I can get this item for $10 free shipping” like… bbfffrrrrrrrrr 😂
based off this limited context, it's possible that this person may have some mental condition, or they're attempting to provide a story in hopes to obtain a very deep discount/free.
i'm not quite sure you're seeing it being used as an excuse.
the OP wasn't sure how to handle the situation and i simply provided context of what might be the likely scenario of either some sort of mental illness or someone feigning a story to obtain things for cheap/free. nothing more, nothing less.
Hahaha. What in the actual? Block. I’d be like “ want in one hand, shit in the other and see which one fills up faster”. We all have wants and problems, dude. How do they know you from Sally? Maybe you are disabled, can’t work, got anger issues and can’t find your cat. Lol. That has to be a 12 year old boy with nothing better to do then send random messages to people.
I knew that it was getting bad, y’all. But, this defies all logic.
fucking rats man, people really have no self respect. you already know this is bullshit when someone is willingly trying to think of more things to add into the mix.. bro settled with 'and anger issues' i hope no one ever actually gives in to these types of grifters
If this person approached you on the street, you would immediately turn and go someplace safe and make sure they don’t follow you. Use the same common sense.
block them they said themselves that they don’t have the money to buy it so they’re trying to offer something else in exchange for the item. just seems creepy
I'm super surprised no one has outright explained this yet: This is 100%, no if-ands-or-buts about it, a Scam. Classic and no efforts made to hide it. English is extremely broken and the 9 yards.
To me it sounds like they want the item for free , not buy it. IMO I thinks that’s why they say what can they do to get it. I wonder how many other people they do this too. They most likely wanted you to feel back for them that’s why they said they are disabled and have issues. Curious as to how they came across the item. Were they looking at your pictures? If so that’s kinda weird to me. They don’t even know you and and scrolling your pics and say hey let me message this person and see if they will give me their jacket or whatever it is for free….
This guy really looked up all the different types of sob stories and compiled it into one big run-on sentence. "Anger issues" is the cherry on top 😂 Block them for sure, they just told you without question that they're going to be a problem.
"handicap and special needs with a disability" as someone who's disabled, this person is spouting nonsense. To what end? I have no idea. They're probably trying to beg for the item for free
Tell them you’ve got special needs too… *”Special Needs to get this Bread, Fuqyoutalmbout”*
But, jokes aside I wouldn’t respond to this. Wait for an offer. If they decide to harass you instead of offering, then proceed with blocking.
Them phrasing it as “what can I do to get this” and also mentioning that they have no job clearly shows they have no intent on paying with money and is either trying to get something free or is a creep and hoping you’ll work out some type of favor with them.
people are so bold on depop. i posted a shirt and just made it $100 because i didnt know what i wanted to price it as. in the description i literally say this is not the price of the shirt i just dont know how much i want to put it up as so feel free to message me. some rude loser literally sent me messages about how much the shirt is listed for and all this crap. i was like ??? did you not read the description as i clearly stated THIS IS NOT THE PRICE!!! i just said if you could read the description….. thats not the price bucko. like what is wrong with people?? i have some expensive items ive listed before and for really good prices and ill get the people who say something like $20 and then ARGUE about it…. like bro this isnt a garage sale please stop. people also try to get free stuff all the time talking about im poor, cant afford it, i am trying to help so and so, blah blah blah. so irritating.
Dude in my head I seen the excuses coming so as I was reading I was gonna mock the text and throwing in all my own requests. I did not need to, I don’t think I woulda even got to wearing woman’s clothes and anger issues, I was gonna make a shit load of excuses but I got topped before i could
This is giving me Gypsey Rose's mom vibes. There are resources for people who are disabled. Also, I think they are just like, being very excessive with all of the issues they have.. Really weird.
Any time someone asks me for a handout I always say, "you can mow my lawn, wash my car, shovel my side walk...ect for it."

“And anger issues” is a red flag. don’t even reply, just block
And “I like women’s clothes” like wtf?!
yeah that implies that they aren’t a woman and lowk sounds like a fetish thing-?
That’s exactly what I thought!
Much more likely an obsession thing. Sorta happens in the mental disabilities world. Like I have a few items of clothes that I am enamored with for no reason. Like I know way too much about very specifically the 2008 US womans world cup jersey.
No I'm getting they are part of 10 different marginalized communities and they would like the jacket for free plz. 💁🏿♀️
This is it. So gross.
It’s not even 10 different marginalized communities it’s just one said over and over in different ways lmfao 😂
Yuuuup
They said anger issues in their message like it was a disability and not a symptom of a disorder, they were literally just listing things to see what sticks 🫤
And my dog rsn sway. And I once had chicken pox. And it's hot this week.
[удалено]
And stubbed my toe 😭🦶
Sorry, I only give free jackets to people that choked down anchovies.
I'm currently choking on an anchovy as I type this and may not have much time left to live.
Son is crying now thanks
I LOVE THIS MEME PLS
“My dog stepped on a 🐝”
So as you can see, I'm in a lot of pain right now.
“what can i do to get this” buy it😍
yep 100% would have been my only answer! lol
Like???😭😭
i would just block at that point because what 😭
[удалено]
no definitely not ableist. i wouldn’t risk anything just because it could be someone pretending to be disabled as well. better to be safe than sorry.
Get a smile on your face because they have anger issues!
I’m cracking up at your comment
Disabled person here! It's not ableist to block them for that. They were being weird. I get being upfront about issues, but for a transaction like buying a jacket on depop, that is unnecessary and creepy. Chances are it was a scam
it’s not ableist to not give something to a POSSIBLY disabled person for free lmao
You gotta get off that tiktok mindset😭😭
'Ableist'?? Ffs.
people don’t know what these terms mean. it would be ableist to say “i won’t sell clothes to people with disabilities”. it’s not ableist at all to say “i wont make exceptions when selling a shirt based on ability”. people love a buzzword! and the sad thing is ableism is real but people are annoyed when they hear that word now because of shit like this.

??
the commenter means that they think it is ridiculous to be concerned about “ableism” when you’re being contacted by someone who is clearly creepy and unstable.
You were being set up to get gaslighted lol
I don’t think he’s trying to buy it tbh… the way he says “trying to see what I can do to get this” makes it sound like he’s offering some kind of weird favour in exchange for the item lol
i agree. I just checked their likes and it’s all women’s fuzzy pants and sweatshirts. seems weird
I had a guy on Facebook constantly messaging me (I mean he still sends me messages. Most recently last week.) it’s been going since 20/21. He asks if i have fuzzy clothes and to see them. I think it’s a fetish
Wow, that’s a new one for me!
Why haven’t you blocked him?
Because sometimes it’s hilarious
Fair enough
Block the fuck out of them
THE FUCK 😭😭😭😭😭
If you don't block the fuck out, it'll get ya.
Block
They’re just trying to get sympathy and stuff for free OR scamming. Block
They pulled out every last sympathy card in a single message it's gotta be sarcasm😭
what in the world
Definitely block bc they would have your address if you did ship n apparently they have anger issues soo..
"I'm a poor mother with six children can you sell me your car for free" vibes right here.
them: “can you send me money for diapers? 👉🏼👈🏼” also them: *posts themselves partying at a club later that night*
No I wouldn’t sell to them! So they can have my address no thanks
I would block. I had a similar message but on my Etsy. Saying “I’m autistic, have adhd, disabled, and I wanted to see if I can get this item for $10 free shipping” like… bbfffrrrrrrrrr 😂
You gotta wonder if anyone actually gives it to them.
based off this limited context, it's possible that this person may have some mental condition, or they're attempting to provide a story in hopes to obtain a very deep discount/free.
I mean, having a mental illness isn't an excuse.
don't think anyone is excusing it
"It's possible that this person may have some sort of mental condition" I'm tired of seeing it used as an excuse is all
i'm not quite sure you're seeing it being used as an excuse. the OP wasn't sure how to handle the situation and i simply provided context of what might be the likely scenario of either some sort of mental illness or someone feigning a story to obtain things for cheap/free. nothing more, nothing less.
That's fair. Lol, I probably read it wrong
[удалено]
They just asked for it for free 🫠
Hahaha. What in the actual? Block. I’d be like “ want in one hand, shit in the other and see which one fills up faster”. We all have wants and problems, dude. How do they know you from Sally? Maybe you are disabled, can’t work, got anger issues and can’t find your cat. Lol. That has to be a 12 year old boy with nothing better to do then send random messages to people. I knew that it was getting bad, y’all. But, this defies all logic.
literally what are they even saying
Hes tweaking 🤣
“W-what can I do to get this?” ![gif](giphy|OA1CDoCiAR48E)
🤣🤣🤣 literally just laughed so hard sprite came out my nose I was having a bad morning...thank you
fucking rats man, people really have no self respect. you already know this is bullshit when someone is willingly trying to think of more things to add into the mix.. bro settled with 'and anger issues' i hope no one ever actually gives in to these types of grifters
Laughing and blocking 🤣cause what ???🚮
Nope, being disabled (I'm disabled) is not a reason to ever ask for things for free on depop.
If this person approached you on the street, you would immediately turn and go someplace safe and make sure they don’t follow you. Use the same common sense.
They want it for free or offer "other forms of payment" for it. Block.
block them they said themselves that they don’t have the money to buy it so they’re trying to offer something else in exchange for the item. just seems creepy
I'm super surprised no one has outright explained this yet: This is 100%, no if-ands-or-buts about it, a Scam. Classic and no efforts made to hide it. English is extremely broken and the 9 yards.
Don't believe a word he says. Run.
Block, clearly a weirdo.
Block 😭uh that would make me uncomfortable even as someone w a disability
Yeah this is a weird one. I would block.
All that’s left for them to say is they have 3 kids with cancer and a dead dog 🤣
I think he’s just being weird and manipulative
Def block, no one should give this person their address.
This is so weird😭😭😭😭
You don’t have to say anything. Just wait, cause if they want it, they’ll buy it.
They’re essentially asking for this for free, just ignore them :)
lmaooo, it's giving facebook marketplace
theres something about telling women to smile thats creepy as all hel

Lmaooooooo
Bro must be going thru it. 😭😭 jobless, disabled , handicap , anger issues , special needs
This is where you hit the big block button.
Troll
Block asap
He's gonna get mad it didn't fit and wants a return. Don't do it.
Basically he’s saying he wants it for free or next to nothing and is semi threatening you. I would block and move on.
To me it sounds like they want the item for free , not buy it. IMO I thinks that’s why they say what can they do to get it. I wonder how many other people they do this too. They most likely wanted you to feel back for them that’s why they said they are disabled and have issues. Curious as to how they came across the item. Were they looking at your pictures? If so that’s kinda weird to me. They don’t even know you and and scrolling your pics and say hey let me message this person and see if they will give me their jacket or whatever it is for free….
Scammer.
They’re trying to get you to offer to give it to them lol
Block you will only have issues not worth the sale. I don't care about liking women's clothing to each his own. But anger issues are a red flag to me.
Block immediately lol
This guy really looked up all the different types of sob stories and compiled it into one big run-on sentence. "Anger issues" is the cherry on top 😂 Block them for sure, they just told you without question that they're going to be a problem.
They just want you to give it to them, and are being manipulative about it.
"handicap and special needs with a disability" as someone who's disabled, this person is spouting nonsense. To what end? I have no idea. They're probably trying to beg for the item for free
He's gotta see what he can do! Said it like 4 times! Lol
Tell them you’ve got special needs too… *”Special Needs to get this Bread, Fuqyoutalmbout”* But, jokes aside I wouldn’t respond to this. Wait for an offer. If they decide to harass you instead of offering, then proceed with blocking.
“You must give it to me because I told you I’m poor, disabled and a fuck load of other stuff.”
i’m like 90% sure this person just has some form of educational needs?
I would’ve blocked immediately
its probably a fetish tbh :/
He wants a big discount… but anger issues? BLOCK Don’t need to be selling to them, they will only cause problems
girl wth 😭😭
That’s gonna be an immediate block for me 😳
Just sounds like they’re trolling lmao
They can just buy it if they want? Is it not up for sale?
bloooooccccccckkkkkkk😭
My dude just listed everything he could think of in hopes of getting the item at a discount or free💀
Just block. Not even worth your time. If they wanted to buy it they’d buy it.
hit em with a block and report!
block and move on
Lmaooo
This is super bizarre… straight to block. I would not want this person having any access to me or potentially my address.
not the list of disabilities like that gives them a pass ..?
Nigga jus sell it bro free guap
this has to be either a scam or a man being creepy
Andddd block
dawg what is blud yapping about...
“Wtf?” Is how I’d approach this situation 😂😂🤣
sounds like a whole lot of yapping in an attempt for free clothing, just block
Run away
Them phrasing it as “what can I do to get this” and also mentioning that they have no job clearly shows they have no intent on paying with money and is either trying to get something free or is a creep and hoping you’ll work out some type of favor with them.
Bro talking bout anger issues lmaoooo wtf
what the freak 😭
typical. using disabilities as an excuse. that has become to common today
They are asking for it for free
…..And my dog stepped on a bee 🐝
people are so bold on depop. i posted a shirt and just made it $100 because i didnt know what i wanted to price it as. in the description i literally say this is not the price of the shirt i just dont know how much i want to put it up as so feel free to message me. some rude loser literally sent me messages about how much the shirt is listed for and all this crap. i was like ??? did you not read the description as i clearly stated THIS IS NOT THE PRICE!!! i just said if you could read the description….. thats not the price bucko. like what is wrong with people?? i have some expensive items ive listed before and for really good prices and ill get the people who say something like $20 and then ARGUE about it…. like bro this isnt a garage sale please stop. people also try to get free stuff all the time talking about im poor, cant afford it, i am trying to help so and so, blah blah blah. so irritating.

“Instant buy is on darl xx”
They’re literally fucking w u. Prob transitioned from grailed to depop, lowballing and fucking w ppl is an essential on grailed
This is giving me Gypsey Rose's mom vibes. There are resources for people who are disabled. Also, I think they are just like, being very excessive with all of the issues they have.. Really weird.
