2 Save Your Listing
Click "Save Draft" at the bottom of the form. This saves your listing to RPG Market but doesn't publish it yet.
You'll be taken to your listing's detail page where you can review how it looks.

Congratulations! Your listing is now published on both platforms:

What Happens Next?
When someone is interested in your item:
- Facebook users will see the link to your RPG Market listing in the post
- They can message you on Facebook or purchase directly through RPG Market
- All purchases are processed through RPG Market's secure checkout system
- You'll receive notifications on both platforms when someone shows interest
Tips for Successful Facebook Posts
Great Photos
- Use natural lighting or a well-lit room
- Show the item from multiple angles
- Include close-ups of any damage or wear
- Make sure the first photo is the most appealing
Compelling Descriptions
- Be honest about condition and flaws
- Mention what's included (maps, dice, etc.)
- Add relevant keywords (edition, publisher, etc.)
- Highlight rare or unique features
Pricing Strategy
- Research similar items on both platforms
- Price competitively but fairly
- Consider bundling related items
- Leave room for negotiation if desired
Timing
- Post during peak hours (evenings, weekends)
- Consider posting to multiple relevant Facebook groups
- Be responsive to inquiries within 24 hours
- Update or re-share if the item doesn't sell quickly
Common Questions
Currently, the extension publishes to one location at a time (a single group). However, you can:
- Click "Publish to Facebook" multiple times, selecting a different group each time
- Or manually share the Facebook post to multiple groups after it's created
- Check out our Bulk Publishing Guide for publishing multiple listings at once
You have two options:
- Update on RPG Market: Edit your listing on RPG Market, then click "Update Facebook Post" to refresh the Facebook version with your changes
- Edit Directly on Facebook: Go to your Facebook post and edit it manually (note: this won't update the RPG Market version)
We recommend option #1 to keep everything synchronized.
All purchases should be completed on RPG Market for maximum buyer and seller protection. Here's how it works:
- Your Facebook post includes a link to your RPG Market listing
- Interested buyers click the link to view the full listing on RPG Market
- They complete the purchase through RPG Market's secure checkout
- You get paid through RPG Market's payment system
- Both you and the buyer have purchase protection and dispute resolution
Yes! When you mark a listing as sold on RPG Market:
- The RPG Market listing will automatically show as "SOLD"
- You should manually delete or mark the Facebook post as sold
- Or use the extension's "Mark Sold on Facebook" feature (coming soon)
This prevents confusion and keeps your Facebook presence professional.
