Two Ways to Source Material on M-EX

Use whichever suits your situation. Most buyers use both.

Path A

Bid on a Listing

A seller has surplus stock available. You browse, pay to view full details, and place your offer.

  • Browse listings by grade, form, and size
  • Pay the view fee to access full details
  • Place your offer during the offer window
  • Compete in the live auction
  • Highest bid at or above reserve wins
Path B

Post an RFQ

You know exactly what you need. Post a requirement and let verified sellers quote against it.

  • Specify grade, size, quantity, and location
  • Set a ceiling price — no one quotes above it
  • Restrict by state or district if needed
  • Sellers compete in a reverse auction
  • Lowest qualifying quote wins

How Bidding on a Listing Works

Three stages from browsing to deal confirmation.

Period 1

Browse and Enter

View listing summaries for free. Pay a small view fee to access full details including grade specs, exact dimensions, seller location, and quantity available.

Period 2

Place Your Offer

Submit your offer during the offer window. The seller reviews it and may accept, counter, or reject. Only serious offers enter the auction.

Period 3

Compete and Close

Qualified buyers compete in a live auction. Highest bid at or above the seller's reserve wins. Deal Confirmation issued. Seller contact released.

How Posting an RFQ Works

Post once. Let sellers come to you.

Step 1

Post Your Requirement

Specify grade, form, size, quantity, delivery location, required by date, and your ceiling price. Optionally restrict by state or district. M-EX reviews and approves.

Step 2

Receive Seller Quotes

Verified sellers pay an entry fee to view your RFQ and submit quotes. Only sellers who have committed with a fee can participate, keeping quotes serious.

Step 3

Pick the Best Quote

Run a reverse auction to drive quotes down. Accept the best rate. Deal Confirmation issued. Seller identity and contact details released at this point.

Why Buyers Use M-EX

Built for industrial procurement, not classifieds browsing.

🎯

Exact Grade, Exact Size

Listings and RFQs are structured with grade, form, and dimensions. You find what you need, not what someone decided to list vaguely.

💰

Competitive Rates

Multiple sellers compete to supply your requirement. You get the market rate, not what one broker decided to charge you today.

📍

Location Control

When posting an RFQ, restrict sellers by state or district. Source locally when you need fast delivery without long-haul freight costs.

🔐

Identity Protected Until Deal

Your contact details stay hidden until a deal is confirmed. No spam calls from sellers before you have decided to buy.

📄

Formal Deal Confirmation

Every transaction generates a Deal Confirmation document with full terms. Clear paper trail. Fewer disputes.

Moderated Listings

Every listing and RFQ is reviewed before going live. Fake stock, incorrect grades, and vague descriptions do not make it through.

What Does It Cost to Buy?

You pay a small view fee to access full listing details and a bid fee to participate in auctions. For RFQs, posting is free. These fees keep participation serious and filter out casual enquiries from both sides.
