Event format

The Live

Real-time auctions

A real-time streamed auction. A seller presents collectibles one by one, viewers bid live, and the highest bidder wins the lot.

How the Live works

Blisterr's event-driven, social format — the thrill of the live auction.

  1. A seller starts a live

    A verified seller goes live and announces the day's lots: rare cards, figurines, sealed products.

  2. You join the live

    Watch the sale in real time from the app. The seller presents each item, answers chat questions and puts the lot up for auction.

  3. You bid in real time

    Place your bids live against other viewers. The countdown is shared: tension builds until the very last second.

  4. The highest bidder wins the lot

    When the countdown ends, the top bidder wins. Stripe payment is automatic, the parcel shipped and tracked to your door.

Why you will love the Live

The thrill of live

The shared countdown, the last-second bids: every lot becomes a moment of excitement.

A social experience

Live chat, questions to the seller, a community of collectors. The Live turns buying into a get-together.

Unique pieces

Sellers often save their best pieces for lives. Be there at the right moment to win them.

Fair prices

Open bidding sets a fair price, decided by the community. No scalping, no surprises.

    The seller presents a lot and starts the countdown. Viewers bid live; when the countdown ends, the highest bidder wins the lot.
