Facebook Marketplace listing keeps getting rejected

neilmcl

I'm trying to list an electric wheelchair/powerchair on FB Marketplace but it keeps getting rejected for possibly going against their "Commerce Policies", but despite putting the listing in for review they still don't come back and give me a reason why my listing has a problem when there a loads of FB ads everyday for mobility scooters, powerchairs and the like.

What am I doing wrong?

You are probably doing nothing wrong, I list loads of things on Marketplace and many get rejected for no apparent reason. Only 3 days ago I listed 2 pieces of decorative glass, 2 pieces, almost identical but slightly different patterns, one is fine but the other apparently goes against their policies?

Is it just a case of changing the description/title, maybe not calling it a powerchair/wheelchair?

I have rarely ever managed to list something once it has been flagged, its always worth a try though.

I tried to sell my father's dslr camera the other week - that got rejected too. No idea why. Appeal didn't work.

try listing on local groups , does not get rejected then unless its changed recently

I sell virtually nothing via local groups anymore unfortunately , all I get is people saying yes please, and then never contacting me again. I sell loads of marketplace though, recently I have had days where I have sold more on marketplace than I have on eBay!

Since answering this thread for the first time I have had loads rejected despite being listed for weeks already and already having sold some. I've had a couple of rather boring landscape paintings pulled (against their animal or gun policy?) these had no guns or animals depicted. I've had two more vases rejected, several bits of ordinary clothing including an apron. It's absolute madness.

But if you cant list on marketplace then that's your next option, I agree it isn't as good but better than nothing I guess
