Used car salesmen never lie or embellish the truth 
Sorry not trying to laugh at you or the situation, but having never bought off FB I have no idea, but it seems bad business on his behalf tricking a woman who is not into car parts like that.
Sorry for the loss, hope others can give you ideas.

You have an option to complain on Facebook about buyers and sellers even if they have blocked you, check that option babe.

Magic "use car salesman" scam. At least new car sales people sell brand new cars not junk.

go to his facebook page and complain about his lack of ethics
go to his "google my business" and compain about his bad business practice and lack of ethics, give him a 1 star out of 5 (the lowest rating)
go to yelp if he is on yelp, and give him an honest review about his bad business practice
go to the better business bureau and complain about the store
go to your facebook page, and complain about his bad business practice, and ask your local friends to share with their local friends

I still like my comment about used car salesman, but on a serious note Aly did you get any positive resolution.

If you do not know , tires can have good thread left on them but over the years if they have been stored, especially more than 3 on top of each other they can get brittle and unsafe.aly wrote: ↑May 28th, 2020, 5:44 pmHey this is the first time I bought 4 used tires on facebook Market place and the seller brought them over said he was a used car sales man they were good.

used cars are someone else's unwanted junk , buy a cheaper car but a new one.

Easy said when you have credit and income, never mind a down payment. Not everyone pays $25,000 for a new car, and even at that you don't get much now. Some people are happy to afford a $1,000 car and that might be all they can afford.GlennfromLA wrote: ↑June 9th, 2020, 10:28 amused cars are someone else's unwanted junk , buy a cheaper car but a new one.
Otherwise I agree with your premise.
