HOW TO PARTICIPATE IN THE AUCTION AS A SELLER/COSIGNER
Thank you very much for your interest in auctioning your item at The Black Market. Putting your item in a BM live auction is a great way to get many views on your item in multiple places at multiple times through-out the auction cycle. You don’t have to worry about answering a thousand questions, dealing with a bunch of tire-kickers or haggling back and forth. We take all questions, handle all marketing, and facilitate a safe, easy and hands off transaction for your items. Spend more of your time playing the game you love!
Our item advertisement includes posting on multiple Facebook Groups, Discord Servers, Stratics, and Reddit websites.
The only authorized representative contact is @iAmATacoSupreme on Discord
