Marketplace listing guides
Each marketplace has its own buyers, search and style. Here is what works on each, and how SnapList writes for it.
Vinted
Vinted buyers scroll a lot of very similar items. A clear title and a description that sounds like a careful owner make yours the one they open and trust.
Depop
Depop has no separate title. The first line of the description is what shows first, so it has to say what the item is and why it is good, in a few words.
eBay
On eBay, the title is the search. Buyers type brand, style, size and colour, and every word you leave out is a search your item will not show up in.
Poshmark
Poshmark buyers shop by brand and by look. Listings that read like a stylist describing an outfit tend to fit in better than a bare list of facts.
Mercari
Mercari buyers browse fast on their phones and often make offers. A listing they can take in at a glance gets more of both.
Facebook Marketplace
Facebook Marketplace buyers scroll a feed of everything from sofas to cars. Your title has to say plainly what the item is, and the description should sound like a neighbour selling something good.
