Why customers in Peru use Selectido for Facebook Marketplace
Facebook Marketplace is the largest US classifieds platform — vintage furniture, used Apple products, musical instruments, baby gear, designer clothes, and gym equipment at 30-70% below retail. Sellers are individuals, items are local-pickup-only, and the listings often have no online equivalent.
Facebook Marketplace listings are 100% local-pickup by default. There is no shipping option. Sellers expect a buyer to show up in person within 24-48 hours with cash, Zelle, or Venmo, inspect the item, and drive away. International buyers simply cannot use the platform without a local intermediary. Even US-domestic forwarding services typically refuse Marketplace pickups because the seller-buyer dynamic requires someone trustworthy in the room. For Peru customers specifically, SUNAT customs requires accurate value declaration on courier shipments — guesswork ends in seizures or paid-twice scenarios. Selectido marks customs accurately, includes proof of purchase, and confirms exact landed cost before charging your card.
Selectido shoppers handle the entire local-pickup transaction: video call you while reviewing the listing together, message the seller in your voice, drive to the pickup, inspect the item on camera, pay the seller, then ship internationally via DHL or FedEx with full insurance.
