What does OBO mean on Facebook Marketplace?

[Abigail]

Hi, I keep seeing listings marked as OBO on Facebook Marketplace. Can someone explain what it means and how it affects buying or negotiating prices? I want to understand how OBO on Facebook Marketplace works before making offers.

OBO on Facebook Marketplace means “Or Best Offer.” It tells buyers that the listed price isn’t fixed and the seller is open to receiving other offers, so you can try negotiating a lower price.

On Facebook Marketplace, OBO means “Or Best Offer.”

It shows the seller is willing to accept a price lower than the listed amount if a buyer makes a reasonable offer. It invites negotiation. Example: “$100 OBO” means the seller may accept less than $100.

On Facebook Marketplace, OBO means “Or Best Offer.” Sellers use it after a price to show they are willing to consider offers lower than the listed amount. For example, an item listed as “$100 OBO” means the seller may accept a different price if a buyer makes a reasonable offer. It signals flexibility and encourages negotiation between buyers and sellers.

On Facebook Marketplace, OBO means “Or Best Offer.” It indicates that the seller is willing to accept a price close to the listed amount or negotiate with buyers. For example, if an item is listed for $100 OBO, buyers can make lower offers, and the seller may accept the best one.
