Abstract: In a preferred embodiment, the present invention provides a method and apparatus whereby sellers of expiring goods or services may communicate and post, though a global network, an asking price, which has a predetermined starting price as well as a predetermined final price with automatic increments that are made known to buyers who are then able to make a binding offer through the global network at a certain point in time thereby completing the transaction at the specific price the buyer has contracted and guaranteed to pay with a secure credit card transaction. Additionally, the present invention allows the seller to communicate to the buyer with a post on a service's website the increasing value of an expiring good or service during the course of time until the expiration of the good or service thereby creating an incentive and stimulating a more rapid sale.
