If you do think that decentralized marketplace will be interesting, become popular and generate revenue, then do it, no one stops you from that, I am just stating my opinion about it.
I think that lots of infrastructures are using buzzword decentralization for marketing purposes, like they use the word AI (Artificial Intelligence) and Blockchain technologies.

Okay, let's say that decentralization offers privacy, the seller still knows your name, the post company and the delivery guy still knows that you are receiving an item and if decentralized marketplace is using Cloudflare, then CF also knows it too.
I think that eBay or Amazon doesn't experience server downtime, at least I have never had an issue and I was always able to shop, so, I wouldn't say that this is the benefit of decentralized marketplace, it's in a neutral side.
Censorship resistance in marketplace is not a bad thing because people are willing to sell illegal things if it gives them a good profit.
Again, it doesn't offer increased accessibility. I and everyone can easily access eBay or Amazon.

Thank you too for your opinion, arguing helps us to find a good problems and solutions.

While eBay and Amazon may not experience downtime, they do censor. These are lobbies-influenced markets.
Several cases of product's removal have been reported.

Amazon promotes products which fit the "right-thinking trend". Go on and try to sell a product containing too much plastic, its visibility will drop to zero, getting overtaken by woke products.
Of course i do exaggerate, but you get the idea.

Big techs are lobby-driven and always follow trends to sell more, censorship is real on those platforms. Not to mention your data are being stored, analyzed and sold to feed some other big tech..
I do not care about my delivery guy knowing i ordered a package on the weekend. I do care about Amazon knowing what exact reference i ordered at what time, while doing what..

If you are ok with those practices, a decentralized marketplace may indeed not fit your needs.
