Columbus East hub
Columbus East shows a handoff path for high-value resale with visible checkpoints: accepted categories, intake review, proof packet, pickup handoff, and issue windows.
Start with the side of the handoff you care about
The hub profile is the local front door. Buyers can review pickup, sellers can review intake, and both sides can see proof, timing, fees, and issue expectations before the next step.
Accepted Categories
- Trading cards, retro games, electronics, sneakers, collectibles, books, and small home goods.
- High-value items receive photo and condition-note prompts before pickup or shipment.
- Restricted items are rejected at intake and removed from marketplace flow.
- Each accepted category maps to one proof checkpoint that carries through to release and issue review.
Handoff sequence
- Seller intake confirms category, accessory count, and restricted-item status before handoff starts.
- Proof packet approval controls whether pickup or shipment can be selected.
- Buyer release checks route the order through hold windows, release proof, and report windows.
- Every successful checkpoint keeps the same handoff record visible in seller and buyer views.
- Issue windows open after release or no-show flow decisions with proof-backed context.
Seller Intake
- Start listing online, select hub intake, then follow the intake window shown in review.
- Counter flow records photos, accessory count, condition notes, packing status, and release rules.
- Fees, pickup rules, and seller choices stay visible during listing review.
Buyer Pickup
- Pickup windows appear during order review for eligible local items.
- QR release, handoff notes, and issue windows help document the handoff.
- Late, lost, damaged, or wrong item reports collect documentation from the order page.
