  • I'm not really comfortable buying or selling on Facebook. The pages are usually incorrectly set up (ie as a personal page rather than a business page - mearning any Tom, !!!!!! or Harry could be behind the page, having insight into my life / personal photos etc. I also don't like my friends / neighbours knowing what I'm selling!

  • I feel like that too.... not sure I want loads of strangers coming to my door. I'm waiting for Car Boot season to kick off in the spring.

    I really am going to try ebay this year though :)

    No one needs to know your address as you can meet to buy/sell somewhere local and in public

  • Just to update - I've joined a closed group for my town which has over 8000 members. I've set up a separate facebook account to use just for this, linked to a new email address - that way my normal facebook page and activity won't be affected and no-one will be able to see my normal pictures etc. I've already set up another facebook account in the past that I use purely for entering competitions so I know that works. Just need to get myself organised with photos of all the stuff to sell now!
