Definitions
- the present invention is systems and methods for transferring items with restricted transferability, such as airline tickets, concert tickets, sporting event tickets, hotel reservations, etc. More particularly, the present invention relates to systems and methods for enabling consumers to exchange perishable items with the assistance from the providers of the items .
- airline tickets many popular high-cost and yet perishable items, such as airline tickets, concert tickets, and sporting event tickets, are sold by providers to consumers with restrictions on the transferability of those items.
- an airline i.e., a provider
- the airline would likely place restrictions on the transferability of the airline ticket in order to prevent the first passenger from selling the airline ticket to a second passenger a few days before the corresponding flight at less than what the airline would charge the second passenger for the same ticket at that time.
- the airline prevents such a transfer in order to prevent the first passenger from competing with the airline for the sale of the airline ticket to the second passenger.
- the systems and methods then present information regarding the item to other consumers, including a second consumer.
- This information may be presented as part of a bidding interface or as part of an advertising interface.
- the transfer of the item can then be completed with or without the assistance of an intermediary (that may also be a provider of the systems and methods of the present invention) .
- the first and second consumer may directly transfer the item and payment to each other.
- the transfer is completed with the assistance of an intermediary, the first consumer may send the item to the intermediary and the second consumer may send payment to the intermediary. Once both the item and the payment have been received at the intermediary, the intermediary may send the item to the second consumer and all of the payment (or part of the payment when commission payments are made) to the first consumer.
- FIG. 1 is a transaction flow diagram of one embodiment of the systems and methods of the present invention
- FIG. 2 is a flow diagram of a process for contacting a provider and providing notification to a consumer in accordance with one embodiment of the present invention
- FIG. 3 is a flow diagram of a process for trading and transferring an item between consumers in accordance with one embodiment of the present invention
- FIG. 4 is a block diagram of one embodiment of hardware that may be used to implement the present invention .
- a first consumer 3 may purchase an item at steps 6 and 7 by, for example, providing a provider 4 with a payment (step 6) and provider 4 providing first consumer 3 with an item (e.g., goods or services) (step 7) .
- first consumer 3 may submit a request at step 8 to a transfer system 2 to transfer the item.
- system 2 may prompt first consumer 3 for the desired conditions for the transfer. For example, system 2 may prompt first consumer 3 as to whether first consumer 3 would like to auction the item or simply post an advertisement for the item. System 2 may also prompt first consumer 3 for additional selling information, such as a minimum sale price for the item, or any other suitable information, or any combination thereof. Alternatively, this information may be submitted as part of the request. Transfer system 2 may then request that provider 4 authorize a transfer of the item at step 9. System 2 may also ask provider 4 to verify that first consumer 3 is m fact m possession of the item.
- system 2 may indicate an inducement to provider 4 that may be granted m exchange for the provider granting authorization to transfer the item.
- a flat fee (such as $50) may be paid to the provider system m order to release the restriction on transferability .
- a percentage fee (such as $50) may be paid to the provider system m order to release the restriction on transferability .
- system 2 may then receive an authorization or denial for the transfer. This authorization or denial may then be communicated to first consumer 3 at step 11.
- an interface may be presented at step 22 to consumer 3 that allows the consumer to create a consumer profile.
- the interface may, for example, prompt the consumer for his/her full name, address (es), telephone number (s), e-mail address (es), credit card information, and any other information suitable for use by transfer system 2.
- This profile may then be stored in a database in system 2.
- consumer 3 may then request to transfer an item with restricted transferability at step 23.
- the consumer may request to transfer the item by auctioning or posting an advertisement for the item.
- system 2 may contact provider 4 to request authorization to transfer the item at step 24.
- System 2 may use information in the consumer profile in requesting authorization. System 2 may also verify with provider 4 that consumer 3 is in fact in possession of the item. For example, system 2 may query provider 4 for information on whether consumer 3 possesses the item. Alternatively, system 2 may request that consumer 3 provide any additional information on the item, such as a serial number, to verify possession.
- provider 4 may authorize or deny the requested transfer at step 25. This authorization or denial may be provided via e-mail, telephone, printed mail, or any other suitable method.
- provider 4 may add any additional restrictions on transfer of the item, such as a minimum transfer price, a maximum number of items, additional contract terms, or any other suitable restriction, or any suitable combination thereof.
- system 2 may then notify consumer 3 whether the requested transfer was authorized and what additional restrictions, if any, have been imposed. The system may, for example, relay the provider's decision to the consumer by sending an e-mail, pop-up message, printed message (which is mailed to the consumer) , or any other suitable printed or electronic notification.
- system 3 may then present information to consumers, including a second consumer 5, at step 19.
- Information may be provided m the form of an advertisement or as part of an auction system.
- a second consumer 5 may indicate a willingness to receive the item via an auction or m response to a posted advertisement, for example.
- the participation of system 2 m the transfer may be complete and consumers 3 and 5 may close the transfer through steps 14 and 15. As illustrated, closing the sale may include second consumer 5 sending money to first consumer 3 at step 14 and first consumer 3 sending the item to second consumer 5 at step 15.
- system 2 may assist in closing the transfer on behalf of consumers 3 and 5. For example, system 2 may notify provider 4 of the transfer so that the provider 4 may void-out the item possessed by first consumer 3, and issue a new item to second consumer 5. As another example, system 2 may instruct second consumer 5 to send a payment to system 2 at step 17 and instruct first consumer 3 to send the item to system 2 at step 16, after which system 2 will send the payment to first consumer 3 at step 18 and the item to second consumer 5 at step 19. In this capacity, system 2 may act as an intermediary or may use an external intermediary.
- System 2 may charge a service fee for providing this service. This fee may be paid by first consumer 3, second consumer 5, and/or provider 4. The fee may be subtracted from the payment made at step 17, for example. Alternatively, a payment could be made from first consumer 3 at the time of submitting the request at step 8.
- each consumer may be prompted by system 2 to enter suitable information such as a name, an address, a telephone number, a credit card number, a social security number, or any other suitable information, or any combination thereof, at any time.
- suitable information such as a name, an address, a telephone number, a credit card number, a social security number, or any other suitable information, or any combination thereof, at any time.
- system 2 may retrieve request information regarding transferring of the item that was previously submitted by first consumer 3 (e.g., asking price, item description, bidding duration, whether to auction or advertise the item, etc.).
- first consumer 3 may decide to post an advertisement and accept the first bid when, for example, the consumer possesses an item which expires m a few days.
- the consumer may decide to auction an item when, for example, the consumer desires to obtain the best possible offer gained through bidding competition.
- system 2 uses this information to determine whether first consumer 3 wants to advertise or auction the item.
- the system may add the item to a bidding interface at step 33.
- second consumer 5 may be presented with this interface m order to enable that consumer to place a bid on the item.
- This interface preferably facilitates the consumer inputting bidding information at step 35.
- Bidding information may include the consumer's name, billing address, shipping address, bid, and/or any other suitable information.
- the system may then determine if the auctioning period is over. If the auctioning period is not over, process 30 may loop back to step 34 and allow additional bids to be placed.
- system 2 will provide the item to the consumer with the best bid placed at step 34 prior to the end of a bidding period.
- the bidding period may be determined by consumer 3 or system 2 and may be for some period of time after a first bid is received or until at least one bid is received after at least a minimum period of time.
- system 2 may then add the item to an advertising interface at step 37.
- Second consumer 5 may be presented with this interface m order to facilitate offering to buy the item at step 38.
- system 2 may provide a notification to first consumer 3 at step 39.
- system 2 may provide the item to second consumer 5 when his offer matches the criteria of the request information. For example, the given offer must be greater than or equal to an asking price.
- system 2 may provide consumers 3 and 5 with options relating to transferring the item at step 40.
- the system may allow each consumer to send their respective item or payment to system 2.
- system 2 preferably handles the processing and may charge each consumer with a handling fee.
- system 2 may allow consumers 3 and 5 to send the item and payment directly to each other without intervention from system 2.
- system 2 may notify provider 4 of a transfer between consumers 3 and 5. In such a case, system 2 may require provider 4, for example, to reissue tickets, reservations, or any other item to second consumer 5, and void the original item.
- Provider 4 may request additional information from each consumer 3 and 5, such as name, address (es), phone number (s), etc., m order to complete the transfer of items. Any other suitable approach for transferring items may also be used.
- the systems and methods of the present invention may be implemented using any suitable communication network.
- One embodiment of such a communication network 40 is shown in FIG. 4.
- transfer system 14 may be implemented as a web site that is hosted on an Internet web page server 41, which may be any suitable server.
- a provider system 45, a first consumer computer 42, and a second consumer computer 44 may be connected to Internet web page server 41, or any other suitable server, through any suitable Internet connections 43.
- Internet web page server 41 may be any server suitable for providing access to a web site operating as system 2.
- Internet web page server 41 may, for example, provide one or more web pages to first consumer computer 42 and second consumer computer 44 using one or more suitable protocols (e.g., the HyperText Transfer Protocol (HTTP) and Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) ) .
- the server may also run a database engine suitable for maintaining a database of consumer and item information.
- one or more functions of first consumer computer 42, second consumer computer 44, and the Internet web page server 41 may be integrated into a single server, or may be distributed across multiple servers.
- Internet connections 43 may be used in communication network 40 in accordance with the present invention.
- Internet connections 43 may be comprised in whole or in part of the Internet, an intranet, a public data network, a private data network, a wireless network, a cable network, any other suitable data network or combination of networks, dial-up connections, etc.
