It takes them a whole month to review your store.

What do you mean initial fee?

Facebook shops would be worth it if it wasn't so full of bugs. Constant accounts getting restricted/suspended due to bugs in the system.

If your personal account has an advertisement ban, so will your facebook shops since it's connected to your account via business manager.

I think facebook shops shouldn't be connected to any of facebook's other services and should be a standalone service kind of like facebook marketplace, but Facebook seems to be pushing shops more so that's what people are going for...but Facebook seems to be looking for reasons to get rid of people rather than fixing the service from the ground up and giving equal opportunity to everyone.

In essence, you CAN make good money....but probably not worth it since it seems a lot of people are having diverse issues trying to sell on the platform.

Valid point - sadly FB looks for complete integration...

Facebook can be profitable. It has a market unlike ebay or amazon. Many of my buyers never bought online before. BUT it is so buggy. Hard to get items listed and to stay up. Listing get taken down for weapons all the time. I sell mostly fishing equipment and fishing hooks are considered dangerous weapons A LOT. place is ran by a whole bunch of sensitive and quite frankly ignorant folks. How the heck can a fishing hook be dangerous weapons? Or fishing line? Or shoes......

and once you hot $599 they suspend your accounts. Ofttimes you dont even get a notice to upload tax number for a month. Then they take 3-12 weeks to review your account.

I believe its worth it...saw some guy running 5 stores on YouTube and he had a ton of outstanding orders.

Issue is as a non US citizen you have to incorporate. I'd hate to go through all that to get suspended for some stupid reason

my number one hurdle is shipping. I have to process every order one by one. It takes me longer to process 20 marketplace orders that is does 2000 ebay/amazon orders with software.

Anyone have any shipping service that bulk exports or whatnot for marketplace? Pirate ship and shipstion do not.
