Yes, It’s Available.
Stop sending messages like “Is it available?” on Facebook Marketplace and never following up. Here's why it’s a bad idea—and what to do instead.
Imagine walking into a store, pointing at something, asking “Is this for sale?”—then just walking away... 🤦♂️
❌ Don’t do this on Marketplace
Common low-effort messages that frustrate sellers:
- “Is it available?”
- “Still available?”
- “Hey, available?”
If the listing is still up, then yes—it’s probably available.
✅ What you should do instead
Send a message that actually helps the seller help you:
- “Hi! I’d like to buy this. When can I pick it up?”
- “Hey, I’m interested. Is the price negotiable?”
- “Hello! Does this come with the charger?”
Specific questions save time and make everyone’s experience better.
