Potential buyers of commodities and potential sellers of commodities may be matched using a variety of criteria. By validating the commodities available for sale or other transaction and by verifying a potential purchaser of commodities, the traditional overhead associated in commodity transactions can be substantially reduced, thereby making the underlying commodities more favorable investment options or production inputs for participants. At least one computer, such as one or more server, implementing methods in accordance with the present invention may communicate with a plurality of participant computing devices to coordinate the buying, selling, delivery, retention, payments, and other transactions related to the buying, selling, and/or exchange of commodities. Commodities such as, but not limited to, metals, grains, and other substantially fungible materials may be bought, sold, and/or exchanged. |
