The poster literally said "Have you ever tried to sell things on Craigslist or Facebook?".

So yes my complaint is what they're talking about.

And no, I don't need to tell them it will be payment in full. That's already understood by any adult. And why wouldn't they still pull the same trick? (For the record, I don't sell it to them, so they do waste their time but it wastes mine too.)

Exactly, as you still haven't learned what a useless suggestion you made.

But really, you should take your condescension elsewhere. HN isn't the appropriate place for it.
