5), the vending apparatus 40C transmits the input ID to the reception server 20 and requests confirmation of the fee (step D1).
6), the reception server 20 transmits the information on the fee to the vending device 40C (step D17), and the vending device 40
C pays the seller if the fee has not been paid according to the received information (step D18). Lastly, the vending apparatus 40C transmits to the reception server 20 that the payment of the fee has been completed (step D19).

A second operation of the vending system according to the second embodiment will be described. FIG. 11 is the first half of a flowchart illustrating a second operation at the time of an auction of the automatic vending system according to the second embodiment of the present invention.
FIG. 12 is the latter half of the flowchart showing the second operation at the time of the auction of the automatic vending system according to the second embodiment of the present invention. Here, the auction is performed by providing information on the sold product before the seller delivers the product to the intermediary company.

First, recruitment of merchandise to be sold will be described.
The seller terminal 60 accesses the reception server 20 (step E1), and the reception server 20 buys and sells merchandise information (digital image of merchandise, merchandise name, model, purchase date, Appearance, desired price,
Request input / transmission of information storage period, notification of purchase, etc.) (step E2). The seller terminal 60 transmits the input merchandise information to the reception server 20 (step E3), and the reception server 20 issues an ID such as a registration number for the sales merchandise information by receiving the merchandise information. Transmits the issued ID to the seller terminal 60 (step E4).

Next, recruitment of buyers will be described. The reception server 20 publishes the merchandise information from the seller terminal 60 on a homepage and recruits buyers (step E).
5). The purchaser terminal 70 accesses the home page of the reception server 20 (step E6), and the reception server 20 requests the seller terminal 60 to input and transmit a purchase price for the purchased product (step E7). Transmits the input traded product information to the reception server 20 (step E).
8), the reception server 20 issues an ID, such as a registration number, for the purchase price of the traded product by receiving the purchase price of the traded product, and the reception server 20 issues the issued ID.
Is transmitted to the purchaser terminal 70 (step E9). In this way, during the information storage period, the reception server 20 recruits a plurality of purchase prices related to the purchased and sold merchandise, and thereafter performs an auction (step E10).

Next, a description will be given of trading of a traded product. After the lapse of the information storage period, the reception server 20 transmits the result of the auction to the seller terminal 60 (step E).
11), the seller who knows this goes to an appropriate vending machine, selects a trading mode in the vending device 40A,
The vending device 40A requests the seller to input an ID and deliver the traded product (step E12) (at this time, the vending device 40 accesses the reception server 20 to obtain the sales price and sends the seller a price. You may pay the purchase price on the spot.) Then, the vending device 40A transmits the traded product underwriting information and the ID indicating that the traded product has been undertaken to the reception server 20 (step E13), and the reception server 2
0 receives the traded product underwriting information and the ID, and mails the information related to the trade decision and the information related to the receipt to the purchaser terminal 70 determined in the auction by mail (step E14). After confirming this email, purchaser terminal 7
In step E15, the receiving server 20 transmits desired receiving information (receiving location, receiving period, settlement method, etc.) related to the traded product to the receiving server 20 (step E15). The information (ID, payment amount, etc.) for performing the receiving process is transmitted to 40B (step E16). Thereafter, the traded goods are transported to the vending shop (the receiving place designated by the purchaser) via the distribution center, and the vending machine 40B picks up and manages the traded goods (step E17). Then, the purchaser goes to the designated vending counter, selects a trading mode in the vending device 40B, and the vending device 40B requests the purchaser to input an ID (step E18). Is displayed, the automatic vending device 40B requests a settlement procedure if the traded product is correct (step E19), and the vending device 40B delivers the traded product to the purchaser by confirming the settlement (step E20). (However, depending on the settlement method, the user can also settle after receiving the purchased and sold merchandise. When the buyer completes the settlement by credit at the time of transmitting the receipt information, the settlement in the vending apparatus 40 is not performed. Finally, the vending machine 40 is omitted.
B transmits the delivery information of the merchandise to the reception server 20 (step E21).
