How to ask a seller to show you lots.

Want to see lots before you buy? Ask for a showing: the seller brings samples.

Tick each lot you want to see.

Then press Request to see.

You get one card for each seller.

In My target, type the price you hope to pay a pound.

Pick a day and time, Pacific.

Send request.

Now it waits on the seller: forty-eight hours to accept your target, counter, or keep the list price. A price you agree is yours for seventy-five days.

The full guides are in Budtello's help pages.

A showing is a visit where the seller brings samples. When you ask for one, you can also ask a price on each lot.

Before you start

  • Your licence is verified. The Showings page opens only after that.
  • Set your showing hours with Set your showing times at the top of the Showings page. Your free days then show up as choices, and a seller who offers another time picks one inside them.
  • All showing times are Pacific time.
