List what's worth something — second-hand finds, collectibles, or your own art — at the price you'd love to get. If no one bites, the price drops. Someone might quietly leave a standing offer below the current price; you'll only find out when the market actually clears. No haggling. No games. Just a fair price, found live.
Two phases, seamlessly joined: the price first drops automatically until someone strikes — then a short bidding window opens where others can raise the price.
Pick an opening price, a floor you won't go below, and how fast the price drops. A 10% deposit shows you mean it — and comes right back the moment the deal closes cleanly.
No one biting yet? The price drops automatically — minute by minute, hour by hour, however you set it. The hurried take it now. The patient leave a quiet standing offer below the current price.
The moment someone strikes or a standing offer fires, the auction reverses. A short bidding window opens — minutes, not seconds — and anyone can raise. Every bid in the last 30 seconds extends the window so sniping doesn't win.
Card holds make every bid real. On clearing, the buyer's card is charged, the seller gets paid net of platform fees, and the item ships. If something goes wrong, a human looks at it.
No more "but you said …" arguments. Every bid, shipment, and payout is cryptographically signed and lives on a public log. Play fair and you build a reputation no one can fake. For artists, that means every signed handoff doubles as provenance — from studio to collector, a record nobody can rewrite.
Your bid is held, not taken. The moment you're outbid, the money's free again. Nothing actually moves until the market clears — and only how you wanted it to.
Set your line in the sand without showing your hand. Sellers see the market depth — never your name. A fresh key per standing offer keeps it that way, until you choose to reveal yourself by winning.
