Facebook might not be the place to find high-end furniture, but it is everything that Craigslist was, and before that newspaper classifieds were, especially in rural areas.
I've recently purchased these items via Facebook groups and marketplace, all of which were listed no place else:
- the exact boat I had wanted for years
- a ton of home brewing gear
- lightly used children's shoes, at $75 off list price
- a chest freezer
- a 4k monitor
I'm not saying this is a good thing, but it is outrageously effective.
- matart 5y agoI agree about high end items. We started some home renovations recently and used FB Marketplace to get rid of everything. We got rid of a vanity, toilet, light fixtures, oven, skill saw, media center, and more. We usually list it for ~$20 (except the oven) and if the person doesn't do anything weird we give it for free. It's way better than throwing things out.
