How do I create a listing to buy an item?
To buy an item on ArcBase, create a buy listing. Specify the ARC Raiders item, the quantity and what you will give in return: Credits, Seeds or other items. Sellers will see the listing in the catalog for 6 hours and can respond to it. To create a listing, sign in to the site with Discord.
How to create a buy listing
Start creating the listing
- 1.
On the home page, hover over the "Create listing" button above the list of listings.
- 2.
The button expands into two options. Click "Buy".
You can also create a listing on an item's page, in the "Trade" tab. The item is then already selected.
Choose an item
A window opens with a "Buy" label. Type at least 3 characters of the item name into the search. While the field is empty, the "Popular" list is shown; once you type, you see "Results". Click the item you want.
Enter the quantity
In the "Quantity" field, enter how many pieces you want to buy. You can type a number or click "−" and "+".
To buy in parts, turn on "Bundle" and enter how many pieces go into one bundle in the "Bundle size" field. 100 pieces in bundles of 20 makes 5 bundles. A seller gives as many bundles as they have.
When you buy in bundles, the price in your offers is per 1 bundle. The bundle size cannot be larger than the quantity.
Specify what you offer in return
An offer is what you will give the seller. Click "Add preferred offer" and choose a payment method: "Credits", "Seeds" or an item.
Allow counteroffers
Turn on "Ready to counteroffer" if you want sellers to send you their own terms. You decide whether to accept a counteroffer.
Review and publish
- 1.
Click "Review". On the "Summary" screen, check the item, the quantity and the payment options. To fix something, click "Edit".
- 2.
Click "List now for 6 hours".
- 3.
In the "Attention" window, click "Agree, list". This means you agree to respond to sellers' requests.
If you ignore requests, your score goes down. To stop the window from appearing every time, check "Hide this alert for 7 days".
What are the limits on offers?
A Credits offer must be at least 2 Credits. The platform fee is shown next to the amount.
In one offer, each item, Credits and Seeds can appear only once.
You cannot offer in exchange the same item you are buying.
Can I create a listing without offers?
Yes, if "Ready to counteroffer" is turned on. Sellers then propose a price themselves. If counteroffers are turned off, you need at least 1 offer.
Where do I find my listing?
The listing appears in the catalog right away and stays active for 6 hours. To open your listings, click the bar with the number of active listings at the bottom of the screen. There you can edit or delete the listing.
