Abstract: A digital item tracking system drives e-commerce with an order state that is determined based on processing events, shipping events and payment events. When a transaction occurs in a peer-to-peer marketplace the order state is updated as events occur through the point that an order is accepted by a buyer. The order can also cause an exception in which reverse digital item tracking is needed.

Abstract: Virtual shopping parties on a peer-to-peer marketplace are facilitated. A virtual party initiated is reserved by a user of the peer-to-peer marketplace. The virtual party comprises a specific set of items available to a specific set of users during a specific time span. A theme is set for the virtual shopping party dictating parameters for whether an item can be added to the virtual shopping party. The theme also dictates parameters for who can add an item to the virtual shopping party. Invitations are sent for the virtual shopping party to the specific set of users, based on the theme. A customized feed is then presented to each of the set of users that join the virtual shopping party.
