AUCTION BIDDING
1. Unlock Bidding To keep auctions fair and prevent spam, we require bidders to verify their intent. You can place a bid by securing your account in one of three ways:
- Deposit: Place a small % of your bid in Bitcoin/Lightning or a temporary fiat hold via PayPal. Login not required.
- 💎 Satoshi Mode (Unlimited Bidding): Unlock unlimited and max bidding with a single deposit of 500k sats (0.005 BTC) or an equivalent PayPal hold.
- 🐦 Link X Account: Unlock unlimited bidding instantly by linking a verified X (Twitter) account.
- Requirements: Account must be older than 2 years and have 1K+ followers.
2. Win & Pay Winning bidders have 4 hours to settle the final price.
- Payment Methods:
- Bitcoin (On-chain & Lightning)
- Fiat (Credit/Debit via PayPal) for amounts up to 0.1 BTC (subject to a 3.69% fee)
- Bank Wire Transfers are available for payments exceeding 0.1 BTC (identity verification required)
- Note: If the winner fails to pay, they forfeit their deposit, and the next highest bidder is offered the item.
3. Settlement & Refunds Once all auction items are settled, collateral deposits are automatically refunded to all non-winning participants. Please allow 24 hours after auction completion for refunds to process.
PRIVACY & SECURITY
Scarce City is designed to honor user privacy.
- Private Shipping: Your shipping address is shared via a secure 1-time use link with the seller, or with conference logistics teams solely for gallery event coordination.
- Data Deletion: All shipping and personal information is automatically deleted from our database on a monthly basis.
HOT ZONE RULES
- Anti-Sniping: Bids placed in the final 5 minutes reset the countdown to 5 minutes.
- No Pending End: The auction will not close while a bid is awaiting payment. Bidders have 2 minutes to pay the collateral invoice to confirm their bid.
- Zero Buyer Fees: No platform fees are added to your winning bid. Final invoices include applicable sales tax, but international import duties remain the buyer’s responsibility."
