How do I reserve a listing for a specific buyer?
Congrats on your (soon-to-be) sale!
Create a new item listing or edit an existing listing and put “RESERVED for (buyer’s username)” at the beginning of the listing title and description. Then, send a link of the listing to the buyer.
- For privacy, some buyers don't like to have their username in the title of the listing. Ask your buyer what name they'd prefer you to use.
Uploading a photo that clearly states the item is reserved can help designate it from your other listings.

What if someone else buys the item?
If you can create more of this item, sell as many as you want.
If not, politely explain to the interested buyer that it was reserved for someone else, refund their payment, renew the listing, and cancel the transaction.
