- Enforcement: By placing a bid, you enter into a legally binding contract to purchase the asset if you are the winning bidder.
- Default & Forfeiture: If a winning bidder fails to complete the transaction within the specified timeframe (usually 48-72 hours), the Bid Commitment Deposit will be forfeited and paid to the seller and the platform as a penalty for default.
3. Seller Obligations
All sellers on Blink Marketplace must be verified. Sellers are responsible for:
- Providing accurate, honest descriptions and high-quality imagery of assets.
- Ensuring assets are available for inspection as described in the listing.
- Paying a 10% transaction commission upon successful sale of an asset.

5. Dispute Resolution
In the event of a dispute between a buyer and seller, Blink Marketplace provides a structured dispute framework. Both parties agree to participate in good faith in our mediation process. Our liability is limited as specified in our liability section.
