The invention provides a method and system for a selling business (or any other seller) to market and sell surplus products (or any other products or services) to prospective buyers. In a preferred embodiment, the selling business advertises the availability of the products or services for sale, at prices specified with reference to a calendar (or clock). The advertised prices can decrease each day, from an initial price, by a fixed amount, until the products or services are actually offered for free. On any specific date and time, a prospective buyer can purchase any remaining surplus product at the price posted for that date and time. Prospective buyers can obtain information on an available amount of particular products or services, and on the present and future prices of those products or services. Those prospective buyers who desire the products or services immediately can purchase them at the presently available price. Thus, prospective buyers who are looking for bargains can wait for the price to reach a lower price at a known future date. |
