Methods for double auctions that permit bargaining between buyers and sellers as part of the price determination process may be implemented using a computer network connecting the buyers and sellers to a central market system. The central market computer system receives bids, determines matches between the buyers and sellers, and computes a price range for each of the matches. The matches and price ranges are communicated to the buyers and sellers, permitting matching sellers and buyers to bargain on a final price.
