New Facebook features help sell stuff
In the coming months, Facebook is rolling out new features to Facebook Groups that let users list a price and description for products they are selling and arrange for pickup or delivery.
Sellers can also mark posts as "available" or "sold" and view a list of items they have sold.
The move is unlikely to pose much of a competitive threat to Craigslist. It's also not the first time Facebook has taken aim at the classifieds market.
Facebook launched a marketplace in 2007 but its classified postings never took off. It transferred control of Marketplace to partner Oodle in 2009.
