I frequently post items for sale in dedicated Facebook groups daily (about 50+ posts across 4 groups daily) and for years it has been fine but ever since Facebook started the marketplace option, there seems to be a glitch whereby I can still post items for sale but it is only visible to me. I've searched other forums and have came across maybe 1 or 2 other cases like this but still no solution. Anyone have any insight as to why this is happening or even how to solve this problem? (other than creating a new account which works but it gets banned almost a week later for sure) Show

You may be banned by Facebook. I mean they prefer to sell ads and don't want anyone to advertise or sell something for free. If there were too many messages with links they may filter your account in such a way.

Click the Join Group button next to any of the groups that look appealing to you. Browsing and buying in a Buy/Sell Facebook groupA Buy/Sell group looks pretty much like most other groups. The main differences are that the Publisher defaults to Sell Something instead of prompting you to start a discussion. Under the Publisher is a preview of items that are currently for sale. Scroll down on the page to view the most recent listings. These listings should look familiar to you—they’re just posts, albeit with titles and fields for prices. Some posts will have comment threads where people ask questions about the item’s condition, pick up locations, or other related topics. In general, people don’t use comment threads to perform the final negotiations for buying and picking up an item. Instead, when they’re ready to make an offer, most people message the seller directly (and there is a handy Message Seller button in the lower-right corner of the post). If you are really on the hunt for something, you can try using the search bar in the left menu to search for that item within the group’s posts. You can also click on the Items for Sale link in the left-hand menu to view a condensed list of all the items currently for sale within the group.

Using Buy/Sell groups on your phoneMuch like using Marketplace, using Buy/Sell groups on your phone — particularly for selling items — can be even easier because you can take pictures directly from your phone and include them in your listing. If you are sitting at your computer trying to create a listing, you will inevitably need to make about ten trips back to the garage to check your measurements, take a new photo, and so on. Make your life easier and create the listing from where the item is.To navigate to the Buy/Sell group you are interested in using for your sale, type its name into the search bar at the top of the app. You can also tap on the More button in the bottom right corner of the app to view a menu of all the shortcuts, features, and destinations you can go to within Facebook. You can click on your desired Buy/Sell group there, or tap on Buy and Sell Groups to view a preview of all items listed in all the Buy/Sell groups you are a member of.
