In the photo Mr. A posted, a post can be seen in the "Sharing Market" category within the apartment community. Resident Mr. B wrote a post titled "Humbly asking" stating, "My child is starting their career and is preparing to live independently, so we need household items," and added, "If anyone has unused air conditioners, refrigerators, washing machines, dryers, or other home appliances, we would appreciate sharing them."

Netizens who saw the story responded with comments such as, "It's a serious matter, so I don't know who calls it lighthearted," "This is the first time I've seen someone ask for a dryer, which is not an essential appliance," "All these are expensive appliances, how shameless," and "They are not even offering to pay, just trying to get them for free."

On the other hand, some netizens responded, "There might be residents willing to give away appliances that are hard to dispose of," "They didn't demand, just posted a request to receive sharing, so I don't see the problem," and "Within residents, it's possible to write such posts."
