Now You Can Sell Your Unwanted Stuff on Facebook

Great Post By Me
Weird Al Yankovic coined eBay the Worldwide Garage Sale, and for good reason. Pretty much anything anyone ever wanted can be purchased on eBay. Unfortunately, if you are an eBay seller, you can expect to fork out around 10% of your sales to the website, and to pay even more if you use Paypal to process the payment.
JunkBox is a free way to sell your unwanted stuff to your Facebook friends instead of listing it on Craigslist of eBay.
Click the Sign up or Log in button to start using JunkBox.
When prompted, click Allow.
Refresh the JunkBox app page. The page will change, and you will not see recent JunkBox ads, as well as directions for listing your own stuff. At the top of the page, click Add New Item.
A small window will open for you to enter a title and description for your item. You can also set a price in any currency and add a photo. Click send when finished.
Your add then appears on your JunkBox page. You can like it or share it to send it to your timeline and newsfeed. When someone wants to buy your item, they click the I want it button to connect with you about payment details. If potential buyers are not already your friends, they will be prompted to send you a friend request.
Facebook seems like a logical place to list unwanted items for sale, since millions of people use Facebook. JunkBox will probably take time to catch on, but we definitely see the potential in true online garage sales via Facebook.
