AllFacebook: Is the Facebook Marketplace Being Shut Down?

  • David · 1 year ago
    Pulling the plug on the market place would be a great idea for FB if that is what's going on.

    any connection to Facebook 'playing' with the network pages a few weeks ago as marketplace is mostly network based. network features are almost not used anymore unless your in the know and know the url to networks facebook.com/networks (where it very quiet) since facebook removed 1. the Network main link and 2. quick link on profile page to network

    I made a post May 20, but the only response I've gotten has been 2 spam emails. I wouldn't miss Marketplace if it is indeed being shut down.

    It must be a glitch or something. I went to My Friends' Listing and there are posts as recent as July 2nd. On the other hand I haven't really noticed new posts since I haven't been in school for several weeks.

    Looks like an international issue (same problem for France marketplace).
    I asked FB customer support about it 3 weeks ago, they answered they were aware of it and doing their best to fix it... Who knows what's happening ?!

    How many people think that this story was just an excuse for you to show off that you have got 427 unread messages? ;) :P :)

    I used it to get books from students that go to my school. Other than that, not at all. But I think it's still the best way to get books sometimes because you can find out who's selling what then message him/her and set up a meeting spot on campus, saving you from paying shipping. You also know you are getting the right book for your class and you get to network with the buyer/seller a little; some like to tell you about the teacher, tips, what they went through that sort of thing.

    What's with the removing features online companies are doing nowadays. Twitter shut down some important feature (I think the reply one) a little while ago. Netflix were about to get rid of Profiles. Facebook got rid of Network pages. Shhessh, some people no matter how small still found these features essential.

    A bug that has gone unnoticed for weeks? No..not at Facebook. Oh wait..

    I've been telling them that they break their own AJAX in Firefox for over a month now. Still, nothing. Likely a bug...
