Facebook is preparing to compete with eBay and Free Market – The Nacional.com

Free Market and eBay could be the next opponent of Facebook. And the social network is trying to add functionality to your bar last news to help their users to find particular items between buying and selling groups you belong to.

Facebook is also adding the option to put the prices of these items in a distinctive part of the post, whereas before these had to be part of the text itself.

The new feature is in beta, so only presents some users, and appears as a new tab titled “all sales groups” (All groups of sales), reports The Next Web, the first page in giving news about this functionality.

Imitating sites like eBay, The new feature lets you choose categories among which “apparatus”, “books” and “buying and renting properties.”

Facebook commerce has flourished in the past, but this feature not only facilitates this function but it gives you a direct competition to the pages of trade between users.

It also offers some advantages to these specialized pages that lack. On the side of users, they do not require payment of a fee for use, while the social network’s interest that people spend more time using your page.

However, this new service yet has no way to confirm the credibility of the seller, which makes it possible for someone to finish scammed.

These are the problems that will face Facebook when removing this feature in the coming weeks.
