- What is the virtual marketplace, how does it work, and how do I pay for good that I buy?

Once the product is received, the payment will be released to the seller’s Paypal or Stripe account, discounting the percentage taken from Paypal or Stripe for supporting the transaction.

If sellers wish to restrict buying to one geographic area of the globe, this information will be available to buyers prior to selecting and making a purchase.

- This will vary.
