At this time, Facebook doesn’t offer a boost in listings unless you are operating a business page, but you pay for this like you would an ad.

Price drops can occur every 24 hours when promoting to the public, but only every 3 days when promoting to likers of your item.įacebook Marketplace: Marketplace isn’t as structured when it comes to negotiating prices, so it could feel a bit like haggling. When you promote to the public, the price is reduced by 5%. When you promote to those who have liked your item, the price is reduced by 10% or more for 24 hours. You can also promote your listings to those that have liked your item or to the public on Mercari.

You can either decline, accept, or counter the offer.

Mercari: Interested buyers can make offers on your items. You are responsible for setting your own price and you can even list items for free. Mercari will even promote the price drop to people who have shown interest in your item.įacebook Marketplace: There doesn’t appear to be a limit to pricing your items on Marketplace. All you have to do is choose the listing price and floor (lowest) price, then Mercari adjusts the price within that range based on demand, but never lower than the floor price. It also has a Smart Pricing feature, which boosts or promotes your item. This feature uses the information provided in the listing to compare the price of similar items that have recently sold. The app also has a cool pricing feature that can help take the guesswork out of setting a price. Mercari: On Mercari, you set your own price but you cannot sell items for less than $5 and for no more than $2000.
