I just had the weirdest and most frustrating Facebook marketplace interaction and I'm unsure if I'm in the asshole in the situation. Like I'm PRETTY sure I'm not, but give me your thoughts.

So a woman messaged me a few days ago, asking about a microwave I was selling. She wanted me to find the year of manufacturing. Then we set up a day and time to pick up, which was yesterday at 5pm. We talked about it ahead of time that I don't allow people inside my home from Facebook marketplace and offered to send her a video of me testing it. She declined and said it was fine.

So come yesterday, she doesn't show up at 5 and I waited. Fell asleep for a nap and woke up to a message from her at 7:20pm saying she had just come to my building but didn't know which unit was mine so was back home, didn't message me when she was actually here, only once she was back home. Then she said "I don't understand your situation", questioned me why I had my grandmothers microwave and why I've never tested it, asked me for a video of me testing it like I had already offered already, and said she usually just goes in peoples houses to test things. I repeated again that I do not allow people I don't know into my home, and I didn't answer her comments about my "situation" or my grandmother, since it's none of her business that my grandmother passed away and that's why I have the microwave. I then said I could make her the video and I did. She accepted that and we set up a new time of 6pm today. I thought maybe she just doesn't have a cell phone or something and will tell me when she's on her way.

Today, I waited again, didn't hear from her, so at 6:20pm, I messaged her asking if she was on her way. She said she waited outside my building from 5:50 to 6:10, that I've made too many assumptions, and wasted too much of her time. First of all, I'm extremely confused by what assumptions I've made and how I was the one who wasted her time. But I responded with "you didn't notify me that you were here?" And she said "no I didn't. We agreed on the time". So she fully expected me to be sitting outside waiting for her with a whole ass microwave, not knowing if or when she was going to show up. At that point I just blocked her. Don't want to do trading with her in the future if that's what's going to happen.

But anyways. Am I at fault? Should I have been more clear or something? Was I in the wrong? Maybe I should have actually waited for her outside with the microwave?
