What about your national/local facebook groups?

Everything, windsurf windfoil kitefoil kitesurf wingfoil surfboards etc, are sold pretty fast around here.

I thought it was the "world standard" to sell this way through facebook?

An excellent tool for this :thumb:

I bought most of my kites on ebay, but I look carefully as there are some people who want fortune for old knackered kites saying they're in perfect condition

About Facebook for sale groups. Does anyone else have troubles searching a group for a particular key word? For some reason I am not getting accurate results. Pretty messed up. Endless scrolling is annoying.

local facebook groups are nice for local buyers but, after internet, we could look for possible buyers worldwide.

I don't live in the US and already bought a bunch of good deals in the US when ikitesurf classifieds was working :cry:

The facebook market place area is a mess and the search too is not smart enough to find the ads. It seems they're continuosly making changes in the algorithm... try to change your local area and range distance and don't use generic keywords. Some stuffs are really hard to find because the keyword is too generic and we can't refine the search for categories very well.
