The problem with Facebook Marketplace.
Facebook Marketplace feels like a garage sale that never ends. You find something, message the seller, wait 48 hours, and get 'sorry, already sold.' Multiply that by 20 listings and you've lost an entire afternoon.
Seller verification is non-existent. Photos are uploaded once and never updated. Prices are 'negotiable' — which really means 'I have no idea what this is worth.' Meanwhile you're stuck filtering through spam accounts and community groups with zero structure.
The core problem: the burden of searching falls entirely on you. You scroll, you compare, you negotiate, you get ghosted. Onseek flips this model completely.
Facebook Marketplace
- You scroll endlessly
- Sellers ignore you

Frequently Asked Questions.
Every seller on Onseek submits a structured proposal that includes verified product details, price, and shipping info. Unlike Facebook Marketplace where anyone can post anything, Onseek proposals are tied to accountable profiles and rated by the community.
Yes — and more. Facebook Marketplace is limited to local listings and secondhand goods. Onseek handles everything from secondhand items to brand-new products, services, and digital goods across 15+ categories.
Onseek is free to post requests and browse proposals. Unlike Facebook Marketplace, where hidden fees and payment disputes are common, Onseek's structured proposal system gives you full price transparency before you commit.
If your request gets fewer than 3 proposals in 72 hours, our system automatically boosts visibility and notifies relevant community members. You're never left in the dark.
No. While Facebook Marketplace focuses on C2C resale, Onseek handles new items, services, travel bookings, tech rentals, and more. It's intent-driven commerce, not a secondhand marketplace.
