For sellers
You will set up an account on Coscove.com, add all listings beforehand, and set up your Stripe account (so you can get paid). Do this early to give buyers time to browse and reach out to you! If someone wants to buy it, they will contact you to coordinate a meetup or shipping arrangement.

RSVPFAQs
NO! We designed the Coscove Market to make sure you can fully enjoy the convention. Interested buyers will reach out to you so you can coordinate a specific time to meet up.
When listing your items, you will be prompted to set up your Stripe account on Coscove and link your bank account or credit card. If an online buyer grabs your item, you will be paid via stripe in 4 business days. If you meet up in person, then the payment method is up to you.
If your item doesn’t sell, you can do 1 of 3 things:
You can continue selling them online. Your online listings on Coscove will still be active, so buyers can still discover and buy your items. We will continue to post your items on socials for you, and ensure they get the maximum number of 👀.
You can also watch out for the next Coscove market event where we run in person swap meets to help you buy and sell. To do so, please follow us on Instagram or join our discord.
Lastly, we are launching a donation program soon. Any proceeds from these items will go towards future Coscove Market events and community-building. If you are interested, please fill out this form and we will send you a shipping label for your items.
Listing an item is always free on Coscove. Fees are charged when an item sells or when a service is used.
Any items you sell online will be at our 10% seller fee.
During our past events, we've seen successful sellers make more than $1,000 at the show! Our best advice is to list as many items as you are willing to let go, and don't be afraid to price them fairly. More often than not, you won't be overcharging your buyers. If you are the first owner, prices are usually between 50-80% of the original price. If you are the second or third owner, consider pricing it between 30-50% of the original price. You can always adjust or reduce the prices after the first day as you see fit.
