‎06-12-2023 08:21 PM

For those that use facebook marketplace, what do you do when the item you are listing does not fall under one of the pre existing categories?

I'm putting something on marketplace right now. 

 

The bag I am selling is multicolor.  I will leave the "Color" box blank as I can't put in more than one choice.  I added the colors in the description instead.

I was listing a telescope for a friend....there was no category for that item....I have not listed it yet because I am just not sure what category to use.  Electronics does not seem to be the right area.

@Mom2Dogs there are a lot of scammers on the FB marketplace.

 

If you're listing it under your account, I wouldn't do it.

Maybe get as close as you can and fill in the complete details in the description.

@chrystaltree ..That is what I did....I find the categories on Facebook to be limited.
