FAQ’s

Q. I would like to be part of the price conversation, can I do this as a buyer?

A. The service is unique in its capabilities of allowing both sides of a trade / market to be driven and managed. What this means is buyers are not just prices takers but can make specific requests based on their own requirements, they can also include prices that they are prepared to buy at. Sellers can accept this price and trade with you, or counter with their own price(s). Buyers can amend their prices at any time or withdraw them at any time. They are in complete control of the prices they want to show and to whom and when they want to show them.

This is a great way of building an understanding of a market where there are both sellers prices and buyers prices visible.
