Example:

Alexander wants to place the domain @alex for sale on FIO Domain Marketplace for 1000 FIO

To do this, Alexander is notified that he will have to pay a listing fee of 10 FIO and if the domain sells on FIO Domain Marketplace, the Marketplace will take a 5% commission (50 FIO) of the price that is paid for the domain. Alexander pays the listing fee of 10 FIO and places @alex for sale on FIO Domain Marketplace.

Alexa sees @alex for sale on FIO Domain Marketplace and wants to purchase that domain. To do this she is notified that she will have to pay 1000 FIO to buy the domain and that 5% of what she is paying will go towards the marketplace and the rest will go to Alexander (the seller of the domain).

Summary:

Alexander pays 10 FIO

Alexa pays 1000 FIO

Alexander receives 1000 – 50 = 950 FIO

Alexa receives ownership of @alex

In the event of cancellation before the domain is bought, Alexander will receive ownership of @alex and the cost of that transaction will have been covered by the listing fee
