Hello Chobots,
Remember how George informed us a new feature was coming soon, let's see a flash back!
Well, the new feature has been created - and added into game!
And the new feature is........... The Market!
The market is a great place to auction off your items for bugs, and best of all other users can actually buy your items! Occasionally, the Chobots Team may add some very rare items (such as $hop items) into the market place to be auctioned off!!

If you're interested in putting an item in the market, follow the instructions below;
First, you must go into your wardrobe, once in your wardrobe you shall see a blue bin in the left corner of your screen:
Once you have dragged it into the blue bin, you'll be redirected to the auction page, if you're not already signed into the market, please do so. Now, you should see this page;
If you'd like to change the starting price of the item you're auctioning up, click on the box saying "Starting bid" and erase the bugs it has typed in, then you can customize the ending date, all you need to do is click on the end box date, once you've done that a drop down list should come up and you are free to choose the ending date. If you have done all the above then you are free to create the auction, simply by pressing the "Create my auction" button!
Now you are probably wondering how you can bid on something, you can bid on something by going to the market home page, now you should see an item that catches your eye.
All you need to do is hover over the price button on this auction and click on "bid" and you'll be taken to a place where you can see which user has the highest bid currently on the item, and where you can even bid on the item!
And finally, if you would like to add funds to your account, make sure you have bugs in game, as you are going to have to transfer your in game bugs to your Market bugs, you can do this by, firstly clicking on the "Add funds" button at the bottom of your screen on the blue ribbon. You will be redirected to a page where you can choose an amount of bugs you want to add to your market account.
I hope this helped you all become familiar with the market!
If you need any more further help with the market, feel free to ask me in the comments! (:
