## About LAND Sales

With our website's tools, it's easy to [Publish Experiences](https://app.gitbook.com/s/83PS3g9zpWmq73xzlwFn/game-maker/publish-experiences "mention") to your LAND with custom assets created in VoxEdit. You can also [Mint & List Assets to Sell](https://app.gitbook.com/s/83PS3g9zpWmq73xzlwFn/voxedit/mint-assets-sell-nfts "mention") and design your playable content so that some of these assets are required to access exclusive gameplay or perks for players who own them.

### New LAND Sales

Public LAND Sales are now on a first-come first-served basis, and are transacted on the Polygon blockchain for reduced gas fees.

1. Pre-register for a chance to temporarily book a LAND to purchase (regular, premium, or either type).
2. Once the sale starts, you're notified if you registered early enough for a chance to purchase.
3. If you were able to reserve a LAND temporarily to book a purchase, you will have 10 minutes to complete the transaction.
4. If the 10 minute booking period expires, the LAND becomes available for others to purchase.

### Past LAND Sales

Originally, LAND Sales were first-come first-served, until the community requested a raffle system to make it easier to get an opportunity to purchase LAND (this method started in November 2022). Raffle tickets were earned by registering for a sale, participating in Alpha Seasons, and owning specific avatars related to a LAND sale.

LAND Sales were conducted in two waves: first, to purchase premium LANDs, then to purchase regular LANDs. Participants had 24 hours to complete their purchase, and then unpurchased LANDs went to public auction.

Prior to November 2022, LAND Sales were transacted on the Ethereum blockchain.

## Purchase LAND During the Sale

If you did not register early enough, you will see the following message that all LANDs are currently booked. Those who successfully were able to reserve a LAND temporarily will have a limited time to purchase, so you may be able to purchase LANDs that become available.
