Flash sales: price, quantity and the time limit
A Flash sale keeps one per-unit price while a timer limits how long new purchases can begin.

Understand the timer
The seller sets a fixed price and sale duration. The timer belongs to that sale. It does not mean an unstarted listing is already purchasable.
Buy Now with a saved duration runs as a timed Flash sale. Where a sale has no time limit, the interface uses ∞ with a No time limit label.
Try it yourself
Practice · No real purchasesBuy while the offer is available
Choose the quantity you want within stock and per-buyer limits. The displayed listing subtotal is the per-unit price multiplied by your quantity.
- Inspect the listing and saved terms.
- Choose your quantity.
- Select Buy while the sale is available.
- Follow the checkout deadline and wait for payment confirmation.
When the sale ends
An ended offer cannot accept a fresh purchase just because an old screen still shows its price. Existing payments may continue to settle. Confirming payment takes precedence over room-wide sale-ended feedback.
In practice, Advance time moves the fictional timer. In Dibzz, the server confirms whether a purchase was accepted.
