Layaway lets you reserve select high-value marketplace listings with a non-refundable deposit, then pay the balance over 30 or 60 days.
Eligibility:
- Listing must have layaway enabled (typically $500+ Buy Now items).
- You can only have one active layaway at a time.
How to start layaway:
- Open an eligible listing in The Vault.
- Choose Layaway instead of Buy Now.
- Select a 30-day or 60-day plan and acknowledge layaway terms (deposit is non-refundable).
- Enter shipping address and pay the deposit through secure checkout.
- The listing is reserved for you while layaway is active.
Paying the balance:
- Open My Account → Layaways to see remaining balance and due dates.
- Pay installments until paid in full.
- Shipping unlocks only after the item is paid in full — sellers should not ship early.
If you default or cancel:
- The listing may become available to other buyers again.
- Deposit terms are explained at checkout — read them before starting.
