Hey! Welcome back to the Potted Shed for this bonus edition!

I’m going to be talking to you today about the Market Sim Benefit Pot.

What is the Market Sim Benefit Pot?

This is a special Limited Edition Pot that Potted give to qualifying Markets/Auction Houses. There are a few rules that these Markets/Auction Houses have to follow to be able to offer this Pot for sale. The final amount that it sells for stays with the Market owner. This pot is a thank you from Potted to the qualifying Markets for hosting the Satellite store and for upholding a healthy secondary Market for us all to enjoy. Once the Pot is sold the buyer will pay, and the Market owner will send a ticket to Potted passing on the information of the buyer. Potted will then send the Pot directly to the buyer. As soon as possible generally 3-5 days. The Market owner is never sent the pots (only a demo version for display) Each Market is given 2 Pots to sell, this makes it an extremely hard to find Pot, as you will see a little further down there are not many places that qualify.

When is the Market Sim Benefit available?

Markets/Auction Houses can offer the Pot from the 15th of the month and it retires on the last day of the month. Markets/Auction Houses can offer the Pot for sale on a Sim Panel at live auction, on a Bid Board, which will have a set amount of time for people to bid on it. Every place will advertise when and how they will be selling their Pots in their Market group and the Official Potted Advertising Group.

Which Markets qualify for the Market Sim Benefit Pot?

This list is fluid and can change month on month as some places close and others open. Every Market that qualifies has had to be operating for at least 60 days before they can claim their Pots.

For the Month of May we have 13 qualifying Markets. Two of them offering the Pot for the first time. Congrats to them for getting to this point with their Markets.
The 13 Markets are as follows :-

Garden Of Eden
Potted With Passion
Family Roots
The Secret Garden
Hula Rock
Barbasz Got Potted
Nest Egg
Northfall
Frenzy
Claudia & Co
Amore d’Potted
Ganja Garden
Rainbow Potted
SLurls to the Markets/Auction Houses can be found here Community Markets & Auctions – Potted (pottedinsl.com)

When will they be Auctioned?

As I said above the Pots become available to the Markets on the 15th of the Month and retire on the last day, so the Markets have around 2 weeks to sell their 2 Pots. As and when they do is up to them, again as I said they will advertise it in their Market group and the Official Advertising Group. You can also find it listed in the Auction calendar IF they have let Potted know when they intend to offer the pot for sale.

You can search directly for when and where the Pot is up for sale by pasting this link into your browser https://pottedinsl.com/events/list/?tribe-bar-search=sim+bene
*Please note – NOT all Markets inform Potted when they will be offering their Pots for sale, so you may not find them in the search option, instead you would have to look for when they advertise it themselves.

That about wraps up this special edition of the Potted Shed. Good luck and happy Pot hunting!
