Facebook buyer unhappy and wants refund

It is just really frustrating and worrying that people threaten with police and legal action. 

I really can’t be arsed with the stress of it all.

Anyone who threatens the police in this situation clearly doesn’t have a scooby.

Tell them to return it and I bet you they'll ask for a doscount

Block them.  Block them on Facebook, on your phone, email or anything else that they use to contact you.

If they want to contact you, they can write.  If it's not an actual court summons, file it away and then ignore it.

Easier said than done for some people. Some worry more than others and OP is like that as am I, but thanks I agree.

Sadly plenty of people threaten to call the Police over things that are obviously not Police matters.

Had someone threaten to call the Police on me just this week for telling her "Maybe you should put your [expletive] dog on a lead" after her little rat spent over a minute chasing, barking at and lunging after my large dog (on the lead) with her making, at best, a token effort to get it under control.  A token effort being saying its name and casually walking after it.

Why she thinks the Police would be interested, I have no idea, but her take is sadly not uncommon.

It's shame they're not prosecuted for wasting Police time, but I think the Police have their hands full threatening people who say mean things on Twitter like "Women don't have penises."

Block them, ignore them.

The police aren't going to get involved over a sofa you sold on Facebook so stop worrying. Nothing you can do now but learn from the experience. Next time make sure they view first if you can but keep the advert as a screenshot or just edit as Sold then turn off comments.
