Viewing an Object in the Marketplace

 

Read Seller Step One - Listing an Object for Trade - here. Read Buyer Step One - Searching the Marketplace - here.

 

 

Once an object has been added to the Marketplace, you will see the layout of the object's page change quite dramatically. On the right hand side menu, you will see a bright green message telling you that you are now accepting offers for this object.  There’s a quick glance info about the listing – what payments are accepted, how long offers are open until, basic statistics on the number of offers there have been and how many times the listing has been viewed.

 

 

Below that, there’s a link which allows you to withdraw the object from sale or trade; this is only visible to the Seller, and you can only do this if you have NOT accepted any offers.

 

Next you will see a checklist, which will help you remember the process of how the Marketplace works, and will remind you of important things you need to do.

 

 

Below that is the seller ratings. Once you have completed a transaction with another member, they have the opportunity to leave you feedback and give you a rating. This rating becomes a part of your profile, and the better their experience with you is, the higher your rating will go.

 

 

And lastly, you’ll find all the normal object stuff, like object ratings and comments.

 

Taking a look at the center column, where all the object’s information is, you can see that you can still go back and edit or delete the object if you are the Seller. As the Seller, you will only be able to delete the object if you haven’t accepted any offers, or if you have withdrawn the object from the Marketplace.

 

 

There are also three new links. The first is ‘Object Detail’, which allows you to see all the important data first stored about the object: ie. Manufacturer’s info, insurance details, restoration, etc.

 

 

The second link, ‘Trade Object’ is where you can see all the important information about your listing; location, minimum offers, location, etc.  At the bottom of the information includes collectZing Provenance – a history of members on collectZing who bought and owned the object before – and some links to similar objects in the Marketplace.

 

 

And the third link, ‘View and Accept Offers’ is where you do all your transactions, whether you are the Buyer or Seller.
