Hi Everyone!
Anchor here with some exciting news! Chobots added a new GREAT feature to the site and it's a pretty rad in my opinion.
It's called the Market
The Market is a place where you can put your items up for auction where other players will bid for them until times out and there is a winner!
This feature is open to everyone!
How to sell -
To sell an item log onto chobots and go to your wardrobe. After you're there you'll notice a blue bin on the bottom left hand corner. This is your Market bin
You will use this to drag items to sell. All you do is drag the item to the bin and a new listing page will open in your browser. Once you are on the new tab, it will ask you how much you want to sell it for as the "starting price" and it will ask for how long you want it up for! It's really simple!
After pressing "Create my Auction" your item will be
listed publicly on the Market for everyone to see and possibly bid on!
How to bid on an item -
To bid on an item you first need to deposit bugs from your Chobots acount to your Market account, all you do is click on the "Add Funds" button located on the bottom of the page and it'll ask how much you want to add. After your account has a sufficient amount of bugs you can bid on items and see if you win them!
Now for the bidding, all you have to do is find the item you want to bid on and hover over it. Once you hover over it, it will say "BID" in green. Just click that and start bidding!
Some more info about the Market
When you list an item - The item will transfer from your account to the Market. You will not be able to access that item once it's in the Market
When you win an auction - The seller is asked to confirm that they want to sell the item. After they confirm the transaction will be complete and the amount of bugs you bid will be deducted from your account and onto theirs and the item will transfer from storage to your wardrobe on Chobots. If the seller decided not to sell the item last minute a 5,000 bug fee is deducted from the sellers account. As compensation you will receive a 110% if your winning bid. You will be notified via email if the seller denied or confirmed the listing.
When you lose and auction - When it is past end date and you are not the highest bidder the amount of bugs you bidded will stay in your Market Account.
Chobots asks that you price your items reasonably and to not flood the Market with items you know will not sell, it just takes up space.
Some important info -
- The Market's currency is "bugs"
- Both citizens and free players can list and bid on items
- The Market is moderated
- You can't bid on your own auctions
- You can't sell citizenship, premium Shop, contest, or agency items
