Create: Hammer & Bid
by Koudesuk
Create: Hammer & Bid adds live, player-run auction houses to the Create factory setup, so items sold on a Create network can be bid on by anyone present.
What it does
Sellers place an item display set and a timed auction lot, and players gather to bid. A player holds a Bidder Paddle that is assigned its own number, and raises the offer by sneak-clicking to bid the lowest valid amount. Bids are not promises: payment is pulled into escrow at the moment of the bid, and anyone outbid is refunded as soon as a higher offer lands. When the clock runs down, the highest bidder takes the item.
The winning item is sealed inside a golden Auction Package by a Packing Station and sent over the Create network, through belts, funnels, chutes, chain conveyors or Frogports, to the winner. Only the buyer who won can open the package. The seller is paid, everyone who lost is refunded, and the winner receives a sale ticket as a receipt. The mod is open source under the MIT License, and it is an unofficial add-on for Create that is not affiliated with the Create team or Mojang. It requires NeoForge and is published for 1.21.1 only.
Key features
Bidder Paddles
Each Bidder Paddle carries its own number, so players can take part in a single auction at the same time.
Escrow bidding
Payment is held in escrow when a bid is placed, and outbid players are refunded at once.
Auction Package delivery
The sealed package travels over the existing Create belts and funnels to the winning bidder.
Modular display
A single display case works alone, and several cases can merge into one larger showcase sharing one auction slot.
Vault and Account Card
An Item Vault and an Account Card let a seller or buyer link storage and money instead of carrying stacks around.

What the author says
A Create add-on that brings live, player-run auction houses to your factory floor. I always thought trading in Create deserved more drama than dropping items in a chest and hoping someone notices. So this mod adds a proper auction house: you put an item on display, set your terms, and let everyone in the lobby fight…
