You&#8217;ll also find out how to hide your listing from your friends and what to do if you notice suspicious activity. If you have any questions, let us know in the comments below! We&#8217;d be happy to answer them.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_post_an_item_for_sale\"><\/span>How to post an item for sale<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>How to post an item for sale on the Facebook Marketplace? In this article, you&#8217;ll learn how to post a listing and attract potential buyers. Listed items are shown on a white background with a neutral background, so potential buyers will be able to see exactly what they&#8217;re buying. Post multiple photos of the item, using different angles to capture all of its details. Once you&#8217;ve added a few photos, you can then set the price and choose shipping.<\/p>\n<p>Regardless of your reason for posting an item for sale, you&#8217;ll want to ensure that it&#8217;s listed correctly. FB Marketplace is organized by categories, so users can search for specific items. You can choose to post an item in a category or create a new listing, which will allow people to see the items for sale. Keep in mind that you can&#8217;t facilitate payment or delivery through the Facebook Marketplace. Nonetheless, it&#8217;s worth mentioning that the platform is available to users in most countries.<\/p>\n<p>After creating a listing on Facebook, you&#8217;ll want to decide on a price for your item. The key to selling on the Facebook Marketplace is to set a reasonable price, so that your items will sell. A general rule of thumb is to list items for 50% less than their original retail price. To determine the range of prices, look for similar items for sale in your area. If there&#8217;s no one in your area selling your item for that price, you can undercut current prices to attract potential buyers.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_hide_your_listing_from_friends\"><\/span>How to hide your listing from friends<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you&#8217;ve ever wondered how to hide your listing from your friends on the Marketplace on Facebook, you&#8217;re not alone. Facebook has an easy way to do it. All you have to do is visit the Marketplace page, click your profile icon, and select &#8220;Sell.&#8221; On the left-hand side, you&#8217;ll find the Manage Selling Settings tab. Click &#8220;Hide all listings from friends.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>If you want to hide your listing from your friends in the Marketplace on Facebook, you can go to the settings menu and select &#8220;Hide from Friends.&#8221; To do so, click &#8220;Hide From Your Friends.&#8221; On the Marketplace page, select the distance you&#8217;d like to search from. You can select &#8220;Local&#8221; or &#8220;Ships to You&#8221; as the radius. Once you&#8217;ve entered the radius, choose &#8220;Apply&#8221; to limit your listing to your area.<\/p>\n<p>You can also hide your listing from your friends&#8217; timeline. This setting does not apply to your profile page, but it does prevent your listing from showing up on your friends&#8217; timelines. However, your posts on Facebook Marketplace will appear on your friends&#8217; timelines if you post them in groups. If you post to the Marketplace alone, you&#8217;ll be safe. Facebook filters spam messages and fake accounts. Messages in the Marketplace are private and secure.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_report_suspicious_activity\"><\/span>How to report suspicious activity<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>A scam involving selling broken goods on the Facebook Marketplace is common. The scammers often use broken electronics, such as computers, to lure unsuspecting buyers. Even if the seller knows that the item is damaged, the buyer must still test the electronic before paying for it. Buyers should avoid pressure to close the deal if they encounter this type of scam. Here&#8217;s how to report suspicious activity on Facebook Marketplace.<\/p>\n<p>Be wary of sellers who use QR codes to lure unsuspecting buyers. This tactic has been used for centuries to deceive unsuspecting consumers. Be sure to check seller profiles and avoid purchasing anything from sellers that refuse to provide a tracking number. Lastly, don&#8217;t use gift cards. Don&#8217;t give anyone your credit card number if you can help it. In addition, be wary of sellers who refuse to engage on Messenger.<\/p>\n<p>Fake accounts are common on Facebook, but the purpose is to steal your information. Fake Facebook accounts are used for many scams &#8211; some of them are even used to house stolen credit cards. Make sure to check the pages of sellers before you deal with them to ensure that they are not selling fake accounts. Moreover, don&#8217;t buy anything from a seller whose profile picture looks like a selfie.<\/p>\n<p> <iframe width=\"454\" height=\"254\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/TOGWOIyyiBo\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" style=\"margin:0px auto; display: block;\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How Do I Get to the Marketplace on Facebook?
