What counts as a claim?

Any comment on a post you listed through Danrian that contains one of your claim words as a whole word: take, sold, mine or want to start with, and you can set your own. On an auction, a plain bid amount counts as a bid.

Someone asks for three and there are only two left?

They get the two, and a reply goes under their own comment: “You got 2 of 3 — that’s all we have left!”

What if a bid reaches Facebook late?

The time on the comment is what counts, not when Facebook delivers it. The winner is settled two minutes after the close. A bid delivered after that doesn’t change the result, and you’ll see a note about it in your Danrian activity.

How does auto-extend work?

If you turn it on, you choose a window, a few minutes say. A bid inside it adds that much time again, so nobody is sniped and every bidder gets a fair answer.

What if an auction ends under my reserve?

No sale and no invoice. The post is marked ended, and a “reserve not met” comment goes up, in your words if you wrote them. You can turn that comment off.

What if a buyer never gets their invoice?

You’re told. The invoice shows they never received it, and you get an email, unless the problem is on Danrian’s side and already being fixed.

So what is actually left for me?

Take the photos and post. Confirm the payments Danrian can’t see for itself: cash, Zelle, Cash App and PayPal, plus a tap for Venmo. Hand the orders over.

Setting it up is one sitting, once.

Connect your Facebook Page — or all of them, if you run more than one. Type your tax rate. Say how you want to be paid, and connect Square if you want to take cards. Point your Venmo receipts at Danrian. After that, the steps above are the whole of it.

Dozens of small jobs sit behind those seven steps, and the ones that watch for trouble keep running. The questions sellers ask goes through the rest of them.
