Abstract:
1. A non-transitory computer accessible memory medium that stores program instructions, wherein the program instructions are executable to: receive a group of offers from a buyer over the network, where the group includes a first plurality of offers, where the group of offers has one or more associated contingencies specifying required conditions for the plurality of offers, and where the offers are for a corresponding heterogeneous group of items; receive input from at least one seller over the network specifying acceptance or rejection of at least one first offer of the first plurality of offers; remove the at least one first offer from the group of offers based on the specified acceptance or rejection, thereby modifying the group, resulting in the group comprising a second plurality of offers with corresponding contingencies; and automatically remove one or more of the second plurality of offers from the group based on applying the associated contingencies to the group, thereby further modifying the group, resulting in the group comprising one or more offers; wherein the one or more offers are selectable for acceptance or rejection.
