The marketplace is the only reason I ever log into that god forsaken website. Maybe it's a loss leader

I will be very surprised if Marketplace (taking isolated, if that's possible) is not profitable.

I’ll monetize it right now, any c-level exec can get their promo right here, right now, at Meta:

- Sell an AI agent that sells and markets the item for the user on the marketplace, and manages the sale.

- Then have people sell their fucking houses on it.

- Tell Zuckerberg what you have achieved

- Have Zuckerberg express to Rogan on the show who will then express it to Elon on another show

- Watch Elon buy Zillow

- Live a life of riches, while Elon juggles Twitter, Zillow and the bankrupt car company.

There.

On the topic of AI listing generation, eBay added it at some point recently and it is complete and utter garbage.

Listings used to say stuff like "iPhone 15 Pro, good condition, comes with case and cable, no box, one scratch on rear shown in pics"

They now say "Introducing the brand new Apple iPhone 15 Pro 5G in Black Titanium! This device features a Hexa Core processor and Apple A17 Pro chipset model, providing lightning fast performance <continues blather>"

They show ads among classifieds, so they already make money with marketplace

It sort of requires payment... I (am still) trying to sell a cycle on it...The leads I got didn't materialize (only three-four interested, apart from that two scammers). This is out of thousands of views, and good quality pictures and my cycle is in great shape for being about three years old with only minor paintwork scratches. FB was asking for money to boost the ad for it to even have a chance of being sold.

I got a better result on OLX, though it remains unsold.

Speaking of which anyone near or around Indiranagar, Bangalore who is looking for a dirt cheap 21 speed MTB... please DM :)
