Well I'm not surprised. I think most people who look for stuff on Facebook Marketplace look for really good deals, and often, listings with "normal" photos are made by people who don't know the real value of the items they're selling while listings with really good photos are usually made by people who know the real value very well. Also, if people take the time to take really good photos, that means they're fine with waiting just a bit longer to get more money for their item. So you're much more likely to find good deals on listings with bad photos.

Yeah and like if I see really good photos on something like Facebook Marketplace they'll look too much like the actual product photos for me to trust them tbh

@@ecthree Exactly, half of them are just plain scams

I think it can look like you ripped the photos from Google, or they are just stock images, which makes it look like that's not the actual product photo.

Yeah that's the worry bc if it looks too good it's probably just shitty and they're trying to make it look better

This is what I always look for. If the photos are too good it just looks like one from the manufacturer or retailer. Better to keep the crappy so they are "actual photos" of the products. Then people know for sure that they are getting what's in the photo.

Exactly what I was gonna say. If I see an image like that, first thing I think will be (as you said) a ripped photo. Take the bike images. I would have followed the basic guidelines (look at Seth from Berm Peaks video) on how to photograph a bike, but I would have made sure it still looked authentic.

100% people have said ‘can you send the real photos?’😂

XD Yup, I'm like that. No clicks unless photos suck :)

I guess if you take the photo in your back yard then the picture looks more like the seller is a normal person who owns the actual item and it is also an accurate photo of the thing for sale. The cool photos could be official product photos and being used to hide that the real one is much more beat up, or raise suspicion that the seller doesn't have it to begin with.

Great concept for a video, and killer execution too!!

Brother keep making these long videos as well. Your shorts are so underrated but still get good views. If you can get the same traction on these long videos, you are set for a great run. Keep up the great work man. Always fun to watch your content.

This is such an original video, loved it bro!

No Way! At least you know you don't have to go through so much trouble to make amazing photos on FB Marketplace.

These are absolutely incredible ❤

i always love your videos and i love fb marketplace i really like this vid

I loved that he used the yo-yo to hold up the phone case 😂

Same lol

Great idea! I wonder if people think it's an ad if it's too polished

If I saw professional photos on facebook marketplace I would think it is a scam personally. So it doesn't surprise me that the normal photos sold better. Anyway this was a pretty insightful experiment nevertheless. Well edited and nice video👍

Love your content 👍

great video needs more likes.

I think this result was because using these because absolute banger photos might make ppl think that these were fake or a scam rather than a real item

I think people usually want to know that the picture is not from google of the product so it needs to look "normal" but good job man 0:

I suspected it would turn out like that. I think if I saw a photo that looked to professional I'd think it's a scam or that the product you're selling might be the same thing, but not the same quality.

nice

that's interesting

I feel like most ppl see a normal photo and ir just looks like a real guy with areal shoe which makes people feel better to buy

The results were kind of obvious tbh. As soon as you said you were planning to take ad-like photos for Facebook marketplace, I was like "well that's not going to work..."

Yeah not really surprised the normal ones did more well. If you search for camera gear like lenses or body's, all pictures there are professionally taken, kinda funny to see how much that differs to normal products.

they look amazing

*I Missed alot of things i'm disappointed in my self*

Squichy foot effect for disappointmeny 😅 Otherwise i guess that lesson learn is that people prefer ordinary photo for marketplace 🤔

What smoke machine is that?

The danger of improving the photos is making the buyer feel like you pulled it out of the product website and the actual product actually looks completely different.

marketplace hunters/buyers look for actual photos. People want to see the actual product and not the photos that looks like it came from a catalogue. Catalogue photos are for professional websites.

My assumption is Facebook marketplace is more of a garage sale type of environment so the more professional and corporatized you look the less people are willing to trust you

Probably cause there so good they think you just got the photo from the internet

400k subs and only 200 views,I like your videos but your shorts are getting way more likes and views

wow earlyy❤

What Tiypod do you use in 3:05

I can't believe Andrew Tate wasn't a category

The normal photos are just so it's proof that it exist and not from google images

0:40 ,displaying the same clips in the pc, that's some details....
