Buy Now: a fixed price

Buy Now offers units at a fixed per-unit price. Select the quantity you want within the available stock and the seller’s per-buyer limit. For example, two units at ₹2,400 each total ₹4,800.

A seller can save a discount and an optional duration. A timed Buy Now runs as a Flash sale.

Flash: a fixed price with a deadline

A Flash sale offers a fixed per-unit price for a set time. The timer shows the buying window. A displayed price is not a reason to wait beyond the sale deadline.

Payment confirmation is a separate state. An existing payment may still be confirmed after the room stops accepting new purchases.

Try both formats

Switch formats below. Advance the sample clock manually, change quantity for Buy Now or Flash, and complete a fictional purchase. Real prices, eligibility and outcomes are confirmed by the server.
