Abstract: A system and method perform group purchasing. Specifically, sellers offer goods or services for sale on the system and users can agree to purchase and share their purchase with others. The price displayed is reduced as more users agree to purchase. Each user is charged the same final price. Thus, some of the purchasing and selling power is put back in the hands of the content-providing studios and end consumers. The system includes a processor for receiving a purchase order for an item from each of a plurality of users, wherein an initial price for the item is reduced to a reduced price in relation to the number of users purchasing the item; and a fulfillment system for receiving payment from the plurality of users at the reduced price per user and for delivering the item to the plurality of users.
