Public listings (browsable, priced, visible to anyone) and private/direct deals (negotiated one-on-one, often for rarer handles) each have real tradeoffs.
Easier to compare against similar handles, easier to vet since there's more visible context — generally the more straightforward path for a first-time buyer.
More common at the very top tiers (single-character handles especially), and can move faster once trust is established — but require more upfront vetting since there's less public context to lean on.
Public listings are generally easier to vet since there's more visible context — but neither is inherently unsafe if you apply the same basic checks either way.
Open the vault, pick a listed username, and DM the contact handle shown on the site to arrange payment — there's no cart/checkout, it's a direct conversation with the seller.
