Buying NFTs

You can search the Mintbase market by category, by keyword, date and price. Or you can just scroll until you find something that catches your interest. Another interesting way to discover NFTs is to look at peoples collection, and then click and follow artists whose work you enjoy.

In the simple sale option you buy immediately with NEAR. You need to have enough NEAR in your wallet to cover the price and the gas fee (which is low).

In the rolling auction option, you place an offer and the NEAR will be transferred out of your wallet, but the NFT will be transferred only when and if the owner accepts the offer. If someone makes a higher offer for the same NFT, then your offer will be canceled and you will receive the money back automatically. If the owner doest not accept your offer in 24 hours, the money does not come back to you automatically. In this case, you have to go to your profile under “Earned & Orders” to claim your NEAR back.
