Tip #3 – Keep in mind, whatever you’ve posted as ‘public’ on your personal Facebook profile page can be seen by people who are interested in buying your items. Instead, go to the drive-thru window at a nearby restaurant and order something, or go to a police station, fire department, or other public service building where you can park for awhile - or get help if you need it.

Pick a very public place that is near your home where you would feel comfortable getting out of your car to exchange the item for their money.You need to have a good feeling about the person before you go meet them or invite them to pick up the item on your porch. Always check the person’s Facebook profile before responding a potential buyer. If someone looks questionable, or their “friends” look questionable, or their “groups” look questionable… then just don’t reply.Only give those types of details in private messages (PM) when you’re responding to individual buyers’ questions. Never post personal details about your house or your phone number in your item listing.The wording & layout of the items in each of the following steps appears slightly differently on your computer vs.
