You are now able to place orders and pull invoices in real time on 1stdibs.com. You can easily see an outline of the details and cost of an item before making a purchase by creating an invoice or requesting one from the seller. A proforma invoice allows you to keep track of your transactions and can act as a formal quote to present to clients. Proforma invoices can be created from any item detail page by following the create an invoice instructions.
Because 1stDibs is a marketplace that connects buyers and sellers, we do not own or store the inventory ourselves. Therefore, we are unable to place orders or check out items on behalf of customers. If you are a member of our Trade program, we can schedule a site demo to show you how to purchase through your account and answer any questions about the checkout process. You can find step by step instructions on how to purchase here. If you are not yet a member of the Trade program but are an active design, architecture, hospitality, or procurement firm, you can apply here.
