Steem Marketplace

in improvement •  7 years ago  (edited)

Hey guys. I'm still pretty new here and getting the hang of things. I've been going through the steem subforums and I noticed that we do not have a marketplace yet.

Wouldn't it be great to have a sort of built-in marketplace where people could sell things like freelancing, amazon giftcards, ebooks etc from within this site alone?

Now I'm not a coder so I have no idea how difficult it would be but I'll try to explain my idea:

Lets say Person A has a $5 Amazon Giftcard that they would like to sell.
Person B wants to buy that giftcard with his steem dollars.
Person B clicks on buy and sends the money to a built-in escrow
Person A gets a notification of the payment and sends person B the giftcard
Person B confirms the delivery and both of them leave feedback.

In fact, I wouldn't mind having a 2% fee for the escrow (the money goes to the devs and for website management). This would be all automated and would be AN AMAZING addition to an already amazing website.

Upvote the post so that others can see this as well and maybe if we can get enough, the devs might even look into this idea! ^_^
