The Challenges
- Peer to Peer SellingCreating a direct communication between buyers and seller, instead of managing the transaction for purchase and sell using an administrator.
- One-Click BuyIt takes multiple steps to reach the check out page, make the payment and complete the transaction in most e-commerce platforms.
- Proper product condition listingDefine a list of the product that justifies the condition and wear-and-tear effectively without compromising the integrity of listing.
- Categorized SelectionDue to usage, the actual size of the sneaker fluctuates. It is difficult to list the product in such a way that the purchaser receives the perfect size even though the shoes are used.

Innovation and Simplification of Purchase and Sales model
While most purchase and sales models require an administrator to complete the transaction, the peer to peer marketplace provides an easier option for purchaser and seller to have a single account to have both the profiles, combined into one.Product Condition Rightfully Justified
Perfect listing of products is required so that the condition is perfectly justified by the seller in front of the purchaser. Using advanced Knockout JS programming, the quality and condition of the product are perfectly displayed in front of the purchaser.AR Influenced Experience
Now the users can simply open the camera and use the inbuild AR engine in the app to try the shoes live which takes away the sizing and fitting guesswork during purchase. This helps the seller and buyer better understand what they are purchasing and whether the sneakers would fit them perfectly before they place an order.Perfect Authentication Methods Innovated and Applied
When a purchaser buys the product, and the seller ships it, the advanced programming used authenticates the purchase and sell before it is shipped. Moreover, once listed, the seller can ship the items to the client and the order is fulfilled directly by the client. However, transactions are peer-to-peer making them very secure, convenient and quick.
