Jasen,
Do you mean a broker that'll buy on behalf of the buyer, or, a software solution?

Software solution, something they can do on their site, have a buy it now button that will link them to do everything they need to do to purchase

Make My Deal: No different than a "Make us an offer" CTA
DDC Digital Retailing: A bunch of traditional forms combined into one big widget that doesn't really do a whole lot. Ever watch Power Rangers where the 5 things would combine into a mega something that moved around all clunky-like?

If you find something that works well please let us know.
