A few things to know
How do the selling formats work?
Buy It Now reserves a fixed-price item immediately. Sellers can allow 48-hour offers and respond with accept, decline or a counteroffer. Auctions have an end time and may have a private reserve. An optional Buy It Now disappears once the first bid is placed. Offers are for fixed-price listings.
How does a reserve work?
The reserve is the lowest amount the seller will accept at auction. The amount stays private; buyers see whether it has been met. If bidding ends below reserve, the item does not sell. An auction’s reserve and other terms cannot be edited after bidding starts.
Can I buy or sell for real yet?
This first release is in review mode. Seller applications, photos, drafts, moderation, bids, offers and unpaid reservations are saved to the marketplace. No payment is collected and no order should be shipped. Payment processing, seller payouts, fees and launch terms must be finalized and tested before real trading opens.
What may be listed?
Lawful artwork, clothing, jewelry, candles, music, antiques and curiosities with honest condition and provenance. No human remains, illegal wildlife, weapons, stolen goods, counterfeit goods, controlled substances, hate merchandise, exploitative crime memorabilia or unlicensed copyrighted items. Antique medical objects must be nonfunctional display pieces, never marketed for treatment. Seller approval and listing review are required.
