The Coolest Antique Finds on Lansing's Facebook Marketplace

Scrolling through Facebook Marketplace can be a bit like walking through a fun house because you never know what you're going to get.

Facebook Market Place Finds

It truly can be a mixed bag. On the good end of things, you can find exactly what you're looking for at a reasonable price.

My husband was able to find two dressers, a diaper-changing table, and a glider with a footstool all on Facebook Marketplace, and we were able to complete our nursery.

On the scary side of things, sometimes people try to sell the weirdest/dumbest things for outrageous prices.

On the mystery side of things, you can just be scrolling through and come across a real gem of a find, like that one pyrex or trading card you need to complete your collection, regardless of the price.

Despite the scarier aspects of Facebook Marketplace (weird items at crazy prices and the occasional bot or fake account trying to take advantage), you can find some truly cool stuff. Particularly, when you search through the antique section.
