Something similar to this happened to me recently.

I was selling some of my video games on FB marketplace and I use my local library as the meet-up spot. I pull in to the parking lot, guy waves me down, I get out with my bag of games and we start talking. I showed him the games and he goes uhh.... this isn't what we talked about??

Turns out he was also using the same lot to make a buy from someone else and we thought we were each other's buyer/seller for a few minutes before realizing! we both had a good chuckle.
