I'm going to have to add this to the title, unfortunately a lot of stuff to buy is moving that direction.

What I like about it is one thing, more crap to buy because more people are there now.

What I don't like:

It is facebook owned. Facebook will in time be exposed for what some of us already know its purpose is.

You can't sort hardly at all, you have to sort in the search bar by wording

You can't alter what you have put in the search bar to change one word slightly, you have to start over making exact repetitive searches impossible.

Even one of the search criteria it does have an adjustment for.... miles from search city is not honored 100%. Often you click on something with a big smile because it is just what you were looking for and it is in texas when you live in louisville and had the distance set at 40 miles.

There are advertisments that are based on your searches. Every page.

If you have searched once at all for a "my little pony" for a grandchild or child, it doesn't matter if your search says "1998 ford ranger 4.0 throttle body" you will eventually see another my little pony on the 3rd or 4th page.

The scammers get more creative because there are more of them.

And last, first, and totally... it is Facebook.

The facebook that is brought up in 30% of the divorce cases in the USA
The facebook that is responsible for the death of thousands of good informative forums like RPS (just mentioning one this crowd should be familiar with)
The facebook that filters content based on what their staff believes and not necessarily reality.
The facebook that even though you started the group and you admin the group the content can still be taken down by them.
The facebook that collects info based on where you go and what you do to target you with ads.
