Do yall realize that a working, decentralized, anon. goods market exists now?

NXT Freemarket! You can sell anything on there for 0 fees for the rest of 2014. It's awesome. Of course, being a new product, it's not as mature as it will be, but it's under active development, with a new version due Nov. 9. A few transactions have already taken place. Not sure why things like OpenBazaar have been getting so much press, when this is actually released!

FreeMarket is looking very cool right now, and it'll be even better when version 2 releases.....

sounded good but after taking a look at it i think its too early for the mass.

i dont have nxt or a nxt wallet so i cant use it. im not willing to download a nxt client, then download the market plugin and then copy some files from one place to the other just to get it to work.

me as a simple customer just wants an online place where i can sign in and buy stuff in 1 minute. i dont want to loose hours just figuring out how to get into this market.

this is not meant as fud, but i think its just too early for normal people to use this.

You all are both right. It is still very early, but at least they actually have a working release! There is an online version in the works, so you'll be able to just sign in with your NXT password and browse/use the FreeMarket. It is still early, but shows tremendous promise and I think it is just awesome 

Definitely worth it to keep an eye on this.

yeah true, i will keep an eye on it closely

How is buyer/seller trust established?  Is there seller ratings or something?
Screenshots of the actual interface would have been nice on the website.

There isn't a seller rating yet, but it is currently just the first release. Next release is Sunday, November 9. Features include:

• Image Preview: See if you have the right URLs for your images before listing your item!
• A standalone version (no more messy install!)
• Seller ID in item listings is now a link to see all items from that seller
• Tightened security
• Passphrase fields now integrate with password managers such as 1Password and LastPass
• Improved Chinese localization
• New localizations: German, Spanish, Lithuanian
• More built-in help
• Various bug fixes

As you can see, they are making some great progress!

Also, here is another planned feature:

A web version is in the works. It won't be ready for this upcoming release, I don't think. But it's good to have a headline feature for each release, so maybe the following one
