You have to hand it to the people at Facebook for coming up with Marketplace. Thanks to them, selling stuff online – whether new or used – has not only become more convenient, but it also feels less risky because sellers don’t get to hide behind anonymity. 

But of course, not everyone is adept at using such platforms. Some of them may fumble and become a conversation topic in online communities, such as the Marketplace Fails Facebook group. 

It’s not about shaming, but rather expressing bewilderment at some of the ads posted on the page. Here are some examples to give you an idea.
