Facebook Marketplace - Buy and sell with your local community. A Craigslist killer.

do you think facebook payments would be used for the transactions??

What makes craigslist great are the Job postings...once facebook allows me to post a job ad, then I would call it an Craigslist killer.

This has definitely been around for a while. I bought a set of golf clubs through this in 2007 in Scotland.

I'll be curious to see if they have moderators ala the "unofficial" Facebook marketplace pages for neighborhoods, to guard against spam, profiling and heaven knows what else. I've heard that moderating those pages ends up sucking a fair amount of time -- will FB automate that process, or combine with bots and/or payments?

Not a Craigslist killer competes more with offer ups of the world

wow! Facebook created another Ebay... so original!

I don't think it's going to kill Craigslist. I think that it will be promoted to try and stop the growth of Offerup

Such a great idea - especially for Australia. When will this be available in the Land Down Under?

I work in the Classifieds market. This can really be disruptive.

Great feature. But it will also be interesting to see how this affects the churn that Facebook is already facing from the below-30 age group.
