BUYING ON THE MARKETPLACE

Information for Current & Prospective Buyers

Why WILDCAT?

WILDCAT : MARKETPLACE is the platform of choice for buyers to connect with high quality, vetted sellers of naturally inspired products and anything handmade.

Sellers are rigorously vetted and adhere to strict rules and regulations to protect the integrity of the platform and the trust of buyers. 

Sustainable sourcing and respect for life is integral to the basis of WILDCAT. The trustworthiness and legitimacy is key.

Buying on this platform supports independent sellers and small businesses, featuring the lowest seller fees in the major online multi-vendor marketplace industry, and less restrictions for listing furs, taxidermy, and other oddities and curiosities for sale. 

In order to combat highly seller-burdened platform fees, this marketplace charges a very small transaction fee for buyers as well as sellers. This way, small businesses are more supported through your purchase, allowing them to charge less overall for their products and retain their high standards of quality.

Included in the buyer fee is a comprehensive buyer protection agreement - every purchase will be guaranteed by the seller and the platform. 

From eBay with their high fees and strict rules with natural products, to Etsy with their costly initial shop startup fees and their announcement to ban fur products outright beginning in August 2026, there are no reasonable alternatives for online platforms to securely buy and sell these types of products. 

WILDCAT : MARKETPLACE aims to correct this issue and fill the niche that has been forced open by Etsy's fur ban and eBay's restrictions.

FEE STRUCTURE FOR BUYERS

HOW WILDCAT SUPPORTS SMALL BUSINESSES

This all-inclusive online platform features several seller and buyer oriented attributes that allow independent vendors and small businesses to keep more of their earnings and allow buyers to easily locate and purchase unique, one-of-a-kind pieces and products, handcrafted with the utmost respect and love. 

Buyers pay a very small transaction fee, equal to what is charged to sellers, for every purchase made. This nominal fee is only charged to buyers and sellers if a verified purchase is made, not before, so sellers have the ability to list as many items as they choose to - and buyers have the unique opportunity to browse through the most interesting and inspiring pieces of art and products of passion.
