The very few times I tried to use FB Marketplace to sell items was painful; I used my '****Off' button more on there in a few weeks than I did on eBay in about a year
This was hifi, Apple and a few gadgets etc. No cheap crap; but all the sales attracted was illiterate knobsocks, who couldn't afford the item, so thought they'd low-ball instead to see if I was desperate (even though the listing advised against that for the good of their health)...
Never again!
eBay works and works well IMO; I've just sold my 27" iMac on there, £50 offer under my asking price, accepted, payment made, it cleared into my account in 2 days, iMac collected. ZERO issues and because I took advantage of the 80% off the final fee offer; I only lost out of pocket by £25! That'll do me
For me, that's when to take advantage of eBay; when they have selling offers on and their direct payment scheme now is so much more transparent and easier to use/understand
This was all low value stuff that I would otherwise have given away or taken to the tip. No bids on eBay, sold within a week on Facebook. Horses for courses...
