That is unless your a sadistic asshole who enjoys pissing away valuable time, money and resources! My advice is to steer clear of Facebook Marketplace! You know what steer clear of Facebook period for that matter!
Facebook Marketplace is ruled by one of the worst algorithms ever developed by any sales development team EVER! That system of shit thrown at wall is backed by a bunch unexperienced, dim witted, fragile, liberal twits who call themselves the marketplace management team!
If you’re a reseller with hundreds or even thousands of products you are looking to list, forget it! Listing more than 8 to 10 items in an afternoon will sound the alarm! In return your listings will begin getting rejected for guideline policies. Regardless of whether your selling sewing supplies, or doggy socks. Once the red flags go up, you’re a marked man, woman, he-she, or whatever you refer to yourself as.
No joke, this is what caught my attention. I was literally attempting to list a sewing basket full of sewing supplies and some other innocent, compliant merchandise I picked up from an estate sale a few months back when I noticed every listing being red flagged for listing guidelines.
You literally can not list in bulk on Facebook marketplace. This is great if your aunt Edna who is trying to sell off the family jewels to fund a gambling habit. If you are a reseller though who value his or her time, not so good!
The one thing Facebook Market place can be half decent for is sourcing for merchandise. Even that though is questionable! My last experience sourcing from the Marketplace wasn’t very productive either. The market place is dominated by sellers who don’t have a clue. Overpriced merchandise with absolutely no common sense seems to be the theme among Facebook Marketplace users. I mean when your attempting to sell a Canon 60D for $800, or a Sony A6000 for $750 that is beat to hell there really is no point in even trying.
The most ridiculous aspect to this entire shit show is that there are fairly popular Youtubers and other social mediaites who are continuing to promote Facebook Marketplace despite it’s obvious flaws! Seriously listen to the advice Leo Do gives his audience! “just relax and quit listing” He says….. LOL …….. If your not listing your not making money, if your not making money there really is no point!
So my advice and you can do with it as you like. Stay away from Facebook period, aside from the shit show of a marketplace, Facebook has become largest ghetto on the internet. It’s a huge distraction and counterproductive! If you have to sell locally, outside the realm of Amazon and Ebay. Use one of the other dozen or so popular, well executed marketplace apps out there. LetGo, 5 Miles and OfferUp are all good and 100 times more productive than the toilet of marketplace Facebook is running!
