Did You Know Facebook Marketplace? A Craigslist killer - UX Hacker. Introducing Marketplace: Buy and Sell with Your Local Community --- Facebook is where people connect, and in recent years more people have been using Facebook to connect in another way: buying and selling with each other. This activity started in Facebook Groups and has grown substantially. More than 450 million people visit buy and sell groups each month — from families in a local neighborhood to collectors around the world. To help people make more of these connections, today we’re introducing Marketplace, a convenient destination to discover, buy and sell items with people in your community. Marketplace makes it easy to find new things you’ll love, and find a new home for the things you’re ready to part with. We’ll continue to build new options and features to make this the best experience for people. To visit Marketplace, just tap on the shop icon at the bottom of the Facebook app and start exploring. Discover Items for Sale Near You Marketplace opens with photos of items that people near you have listed for sale. To find something specific, search at the top and filter your results by location, category or price. You can also browse what’s available in a variety of categories such as Household, Electronics and Apparel. Use the built-in location tool to adjust the region you’re looking in, or switch to a different city altogether. When you find something interesting, tap on the image to see more details from the seller, including a product description, the name and profile photo of the seller, and their general location. You can also save the item to find it later. ... More here: http://newsroom.fb.com/news/2016/10/introducing-marketplace-buy-and-sell-with-your-local-community/
