Today I am excited to announce the launch of IRLBTC,
a live auction and marketplace that I have been working on for a while now.
Are you acting as an escrow connecting buyers and sellers on your website, and do you charge any fees for your service?
There is always a chance people can get scammed with physical items, so I hope you have some kind of multisig protection for coins.
Hey buddy
right now I am the only seller to make sure there are no issues and work out any bugs, after successfully running some live auctions I will begin vetting those who would like to become sellers. Only trusted members here (or on other auction sites) with years of proven trading experience will be accepted to sell on the site. There are currently no fees, once it's proven and grows I am leaning towards one flat fee annually for unlimited listings.
There is always an option for using escrow in our realm. I would not discourage anyone from using or offering to use it, and no seller should decline if you would like to use it. There are a fair amount of trusted escrows here. As a trusted escrow one can just as easily list items for people here as well as handle escrow for buyers. Thanks!
Are you acting as an escrow connecting buyers and sellers on your website,
I believe it's the case, otherwise without any escrow element, people are going to get defrauded.
and do you charge any fees for your service?
As of now, say they won't charge any fees, perhaps to help them get more users/customers and gain traction.
There are currently no fees, it is a free site.
Yes, it needs to become an established site, thank you
The site is good and very fine...
Thank you, Sir!
I liked the website! I hope the idea becomes popular, I hope you answer the questions asked above, it's very important that the marketplace has a guarantor to mediate transactions to prevent one of the negotiating parties from being defrauded by others.
If you add an about section in the footer or header of the website explaining all the rules and operation, it would be great.
Although you could leave the auction offer as optional when someone makes an offer on the website, if they just want to sell, as auction processes can take a long time, especially if it is not a rare product.
Thank you for the kind words
There are three types of listing, standard auction, dutch auction, and buy it now. You can list items witha reserve, or as buy it now only as well as regular singe and multiple item auctions. There is a Help section with general information the link is in the header and footer, thanks again!
Nice and simple design. Any place for international delivery?
How about to move the thread to the service announcement section of the forum?
Hey buddy
thank you for the kind words! Yes there are options for standard and international shipping, and shipping costs per sold auction item can be edited based on shipping destination.
I did not realize I listed this in wrong section, thanks for the heads up man!
