[2. An example of information processing]
If a user who has viewed coordination posted on a predetermined posting site attempts to separately purchase multiple items included in the viewed coordination from multiple different sellers, it will take time and effort on the part of the user. For example, if the poster who posted the coordination that the user viewed allows multiple items included in the coordination to be listed together on a flea market site etc., it is possible to purchase them in bulk from the poster, but If some items cannot be listed, users will have to purchase some items separately. If the user wants to purchase some items that cannot be listed on a designated online shopping mall, the user will be asked to complete the procedures for purchasing at the designated online shopping mall and to list some of the items that can be listed. It is necessary to carry out separate procedures to do so.

Additionally, if a user who views coordination posted on a designated posting site attempts to purchase multiple items included in the viewed coordination from multiple different sellers, some of the items may not be available for purchase. , there is a risk that you will not be able to find the items you want to coordinate. For example, after a user purchases some items from a designated online shopping mall, the poster stops listing items that could have been listed, or a user purchases some items from the poster. This is the case, for example, when an item that was available for purchase at a predetermined online shopping mall is sold out.

The present application has been made in view of the above, and aims to reduce the risk of not having the coordination items that the user desires.

FIG. 2 is a diagram illustrating an example of information processing of the information processing system 1 according to the embodiment. In the following embodiment, the coordination selected by the user U1 is a coordination that includes a jacket (item IT1) and pants (item IT2), and among these, item IT2 is an item that poster P1 can sell. , item IT1 will be explained as an item that cannot be put up for sale.

It is assumed that the user U1 performs an operation to select a coordination for viewing from coordinations posted on a predetermined posting site via the terminal device 10. Upon receiving the operation from the user U1, the terminal device 10 transmits information regarding the coordination selected by the user U1 to the information processing device 100.

When the information processing device 100 acquires information regarding the coordination selected by the user U1 (step S101), the information processing device 100 transmits the information to the posting server 50 (step S102), and from the posting server 50, a predetermined information is linked to the selected coordination. information regarding a plurality of items is acquired (step S103). For example, the information processing device 100 acquires information that enables identification of multiple items.

For example, when poster P1 purchases an item at a predetermined online shopping mall, a database storing the poster P1's belongings is updated. In this database, product information of a predetermined online shopping mall for the item purchased by poster P1 is stored in association with the item. The poster P1 then refers to this database and selects from among his/her possessions, thereby linking the coordinates posted by himself/herself. Information on the property linked to the coordination is stored in the posting server 50, for example. Then, when the user U1 selects the coordination posted by the poster P1, the posting server 50 transmits information such as product information to enable identification of the item.

Further, for example, the information processing device 100 acquires information that enables the poster P1 to specify some of the items that can be exhibited, and information that enables the poster P1 to identify some of the items that cannot be exhibited. do. For example, the poster P1 updates the status of each item in his possession by referring to the database and selecting items that can be exhibited and items that cannot be exhibited from among his possessions. Note that new items updated in the database may be automatically set as items that can be exhibited, and only items that cannot be exhibited may be selected. Then, the status of each owned item is stored in the posting server 50, for example.

For example, if poster P1 selects item IT1 as an item that cannot be listed, the status of item IT1 will be set to "unsoldable", and if poster P1 selects item IT2 as an item that can be listed, the status of item IT2 will be set to "soldable". becomes. Information indicating whether the item can be sold or not is stored in association with each item. The posting server 50 refers to the database and, if the coordination selected by the user U1 includes an item that cannot be exhibited, transmits information that enables identification of some of the items that cannot be exhibited. Additionally, the posting server 50 transmits information that allows identification of some other items that can be put up for sale.

Based on the information acquired from the posting server 50, the information processing device 100 specifies a plurality of items included in the coordination selected by the user U1, and among the specified items, selects items that can be put up for sale. , and items that cannot be exhibited (step S104).

The information processing device 100 provides the user U1 with content CT1 indicating that item IT1 cannot be put up for sale and item IT2 can be put up for sale (step S105). Here, the content CT1 includes information indicating that the item IT1 can be purchased at a predetermined electronic shopping mall (〇×〇×TOWN), and information such as the selling price of the item IT1. Content CT1 also includes a button B1 that accepts a batch operation of purchasing item IT1 at a predetermined online shopping mall and requesting item IT2 to be posted to poster P1, and posting item IT2. It includes a button B2 that accepts an operation for requesting the person P1 to exhibit the item. When the button B1 is operated, a transition is made to the content CT2. Content CT2 is a confirmation screen showing the details of the purchase of item IT1 and the request for listing item IT2. When button B3 is operated, the purchase of item IT1 and the request for listing item IT2 are confirmed. Then, the process of purchasing the item IT1 and the process of requesting the item IT2 to be put up for sale are executed. The following description will be made assuming that button B3 has been operated and the purchase of item IT1 and the request for listing item IT2 have been confirmed.

The terminal device 10 transmits operation information of the user U1 on the button B3 to the information processing device 100. When the information processing device 100 acquires the operation information of the user U1 (step S106), the information processing device 100 transmits payment information for purchasing the item IT1 to the sales server 60 (step S107), and sends a listing request for the item IT2 to the poster. P1 is notified (step S108). Then, the poster P1 determines whether or not to exhibit the item IT2 (approve the exhibit request) by the time a predetermined period (approvable period) has elapsed since the request for exhibiting the item IT2.

However, if payment for item IT1 is made when the purchase is confirmed by operating button B3, the items for coordination will not be available if item IT2 cannot be purchased from poster P1. Therefore, the information processing device 100 does not perform the payment immediately, but sets a grace period for the payment of the item IT1, thereby encouraging the purchase of the item IT2 during the grace period. The setting of the grace period will be explained below.

The information processing device 100 sets a predetermined period from the time the item IT2 is put up for sale (the time of actual listing or the time when the approval possible period has elapsed) as the purchasable period of the item IT2, and sets a predetermined period for deferring payment until the end of the purchasable period. Processing is performed (step S109). Please note that the purchase period is a period set to set the payment grace period and the return period described below, and is not a period to restrict purchases. As long as IT2 continues to be unsold and exhibited, it will be available for purchase. At this time, when the purchasable period has elapsed, processing for payment and shipping of item IT1 is performed. At this time, processing for payment and shipping of item IT1 may be performed regardless of whether or not user U1 has purchased item IT2. Note that if the user U1 purchases the item IT2 during the purchasable period of the item IT1, the information processing device 100 may perform processing to change the payment grace period until the purchase of the item IT2. good. At this time, processing for payment and shipping of item IT1 is performed at or after purchasing item IT2.

(Processing variation 1: Extension of return period)
In the above embodiment, the information processing device 100 sets a grace period for payment and performs processing for deferring payment, but the present invention is not limited to this example. For example, the information processing device 100 extends the return period of 7 days after shipping or receiving, which is set when only an operation for purchasing at a predetermined online shopping mall is accepted, so that the information processing device 100 can make a payment for the item IT1. You may go first. At this time, when the purchase is confirmed by operating the button B3, processing for payment and shipping of the item IT1 is performed. Furthermore, the information processing device 100 sets a predetermined period from the time the item IT2 is put up for sale (the time it is actually put up for sale or the time when the approval possible period has elapsed) as the purchasable period of the item IT2, and sets the returnable period until the elapse of the purchasable period. Processing may be performed to extend the time. Note that if the user U1 purchases item IT2 during the purchase period of item IT1, the information processing device 100 may perform processing to change the return period to the time of purchase of item IT2. .

(Processing variation 2: Discount period setting)
In the above embodiment, for example, if item IT2 is sold out after poster P1 puts it up for sale but before user U1 purchases it, the purchase of item IT1 will be canceled because the coordinating items will no longer be available. There is a higher possibility that the item IT1 will be returned. For this reason, it becomes important to have a means to reduce the possibility that the purchase of item IT1 will be canceled or the possibility that item IT1 will be returned. If the item IT2 is sold out during the purchase period, the information processing device 100 determines whether the item IT2 can be purchased at a predetermined online shopping mall, and if it is in stock and can be purchased. , a discount period is set from the time when item IT2 can no longer be purchased from poster P1 until the end of the purchase period (payment grace period, return period), and item IT2 is sold at a discount price at a predetermined online shopping mall. You may perform processing to make it available for purchase. At this time, the information processing device 100 determines the supply of item IT2 at a predetermined online shopping mall (e.g., number of items in stock, scheduled arrival), demand for item IT2 at a predetermined online shopping mall (e.g., number of views), item IT2 Processing may be performed to calculate a discount price based on at least one of the contents of the listing request (for example, desired price). As a result, item IT2 can be purchased at a lower price than the normal selling price during the discount period, thereby encouraging the purchase of item IT2 at a predetermined online shopping mall. As a result, the possibility that the purchase of item IT1 will be canceled or the possibility that item IT1 will be returned can be reduced.

(Processing variation 3: Setting of purchase reinforcement period)
In variation 2 of the above processing, the information processing device 100 determines whether or not item IT2 can be purchased at a predetermined online shopping mall, and if it is out of stock and cannot be purchased, the information processing device 100 can purchase item IT2 from poster P1. We set the period from the time when IT2 runs out until the end of the purchase period (payment grace period, return period) as the purchase enhancement period, and carry out processing (for example, purchase price Processing to set the purchase price higher than the normal purchase price, processing to notify the owner that the purchase enhancement period is in progress) may be performed. As a result, item IT2 can be sold at a higher price than the normal purchase price during the purchase enhancement period, so the owner of item IT2 can be encouraged to sell at a predetermined online shopping mall. At this time, the information processing device 100 may perform processing to calculate the purchase price based on the content of the listing request (for example, desired price) for the item IT2. Then, if item IT2 is in stock at a predetermined online shopping mall during the purchase reinforcement period, information processing device 100 notifies user U1 of the stock, thereby reducing the possibility of item IT1 being returned. It can be lowered.

(Processing variation 4: Other examples where listing is not possible)
In the above embodiment, a case has been described in which the poster P1 selects an item that cannot be put up for sale, and the selected item is stored in the database as an item that cannot be put up for sale, but the present invention is not limited to this example. For example, the database may be automatically updated with an item that poster P1 owned but no longer owns as an item that cannot be sold. For example, the database may be automatically updated to mark items that have been sold to other users as items that cannot be sold. Further, for example, the database may be automatically updated to mark an item that is not owned by the poster P1 but is borrowed as an item that cannot be put up for sale. Additionally, if there is an item that does not fit user U1's size among multiple items included in the coordination selected by user U1, the item that does not fit user U1's size will be added to the database as an item that can be listed. Even if the item is stored, it may be presented to the user U1 as an item that cannot be sold.

(Processing variation 5: Coordination items)
In the above embodiment, the coordination selected by the user U1 is a set of two items, item IT1 and item IT2, but the number of items included in the coordination is not particularly limited. For example, the coordination selected by the user U1 may include a set of a shirt and a bag in addition to the item IT1 and the item IT2. For example, if the item IT1 and the bag are items that the poster P1 cannot sell, and the item IT2 and the shirt are items that can be sold, the posting server 50 prohibits the item IT1 and the bag from being sold. information that enables identification as items that can be put up for sale, and information that allows identification of item IT2 and the shirt as items that can be put up for sale.

(Processing variation 6: Providing incentives)
In the embodiment described above, the information processing device 100 presents poster P1 with items that can be purchased at a predetermined online shopping mall, and allows poster P1 to post coordination including the presented items on a predetermined posting site. , by listing other items included in the posted coordination, if the item presented to poster P1 is purchased at a predetermined online shopping mall by the user who requested the listing of the other item, the posted item will not be posted. An incentive may be provided to the person P1. For example, the information processing device 100 may provide coupons that can be used at a predetermined online shopping mall.

(Processing variation 7: Duplicate items)
In the above embodiment, for example, if the poster P1 has posted a plurality of coordinations including the item IT2 on a predetermined posting site, a plurality of different users are interested in each of the different coordinations including the item IT2. If a listing request is made that includes item IT2, unless poster P1 owns multiple items IT2, one of the users who made the listing request will be unable to purchase item IT2 and the coordinating items will no longer be available. However, if the user who requested the exhibition is the same user, only one item IT2 is required for multiple coordinations, so there is no risk that the items for the coordination will not be available. Therefore, the information processing device 100 determines the identity of the users, and if the users are different, the item IT2 included in at least one of the coordinations may be presented as an item that cannot be exhibited or an unknown item. Alternatively, if the users are the same, item IT2 included in any coordination may be presented as an item that can be put up for sale.
