The Process

How It Works

  1. Seller Lists The Watch

    Seller generates an Embarggo checkout key and shares it with their buyer on any platform (forums, social, marketplace).

  2. Buyer Purchases Through a checkout key

    Buyer enters the Embarggo checkout key and reviews the terms of the trade on a professional, Stripe‑powered checkout page.

  3. Watch Is Inspected, Then Buyer Pays

    Buyer receives an inspection report with photos and detailed notes before accepting the purchase.

  4. Insured Shipping to The Buyer

    After funds clear, the inspector ships the watch to the buyer fully-insured in a fresh package, protecting the privacy of both parties.
