The Realest offers several ways to purchase items:
- Buy Now – Purchase an item immediately at a fixed price.
- Instant Buy – A resale item listed at a fixed price by its current owner. No bidding or offers — just buy it instantly.
- Auction – Compete against other buyers by placing bids. The highest bidder at the close of the auction wins.
- Make Offer – Submit an offer on a resale item. The owner can accept, decline, or counter your offer.
