How it works

From browsing to provenance, in nine steps.

Sabet brings every part of collecting the work into one place — discovery, payment, authentication, ownership, community. Here's the flow end-to-end.

1. 01

   Create an account

   Sign up with email or your favorite social. Pick a handle — that becomes your public profile at /collectors/your-handle. You can keep your collection private at any point if you'd rather lurk.

2. 02

   Browse drops

   Drops come in five formats: standard fixed-price, 24-hour flash sales, auctions with anti-snipe, numbered print editions, and bundles. Subscribe to any upcoming drop to get an email the moment it goes live.

3. 03

   Buy or bid

   Fixed-price drops use Stripe Checkout — one tap to collect. Auctions require a card on file before your first bid; you're committing to pay if you win, and your card is charged automatically the moment the timer hits zero. No chasing winners. No manual checkout afterwards.

4. 04

   Receive the piece

   Physical pieces ship from the studio with tracking via ShipStation. Status updates flow into your /orders timeline — paid → label printed → shipped → delivered. Your gallery updates the moment the order is confirmed.

5. 05

   Get a signed certificate

   Every piece gets a unique signed certificate. Public URL. Downloadable PDF. QR-code linked. Travels with the piece if you ever transfer ownership. If the studio issues it, the piece is real.

6. 06

   Build your public collection

   Pieces you own appear in My Collection. Reorder them. Hide individual ones. Toggle your whole profile to private if you want. Publicly visible items flow into the global Vault and the Top Collectors leaderboard — your collection becomes your reputation.

7. 07

   Verify pieces you already own

   Bought a piece off-platform years ago? Submit a photo + proof of purchase via /verify. Sabet reviews each submission personally and issues a signed certificate in your name.

8. 08

   Transfer when you sell privately

   If you sell or gift a piece to another collector, both parties hit /transfers/new and approve the move. The cert is voided and a new one is issued to the new owner. The provenance chain stays intact forever.

9. 09

   Engage with the community

   Post in the feed. Start a thread in the forum. DM a collector whose taste you respect. Tap heart on a post that hits. No comments on individual pieces — discussion lives in the forum.
