The disclosure herein provides methods, systems, and devices for marketing and selling used vehicles during an extended sale period and dynamically matching used vehicle dealers to used vehicle transactions. A used vehicle marketing and sales platform allows vehicles to be marketed and sold through a dynamic user interface before its date of availability and/or before auction using a dynamic price listing generation system. The used vehicle marketing and sales platform also matches used vehicle dealers to complete transactions through a dealer matching system in order to provide a physical location for delivery of a used vehicle and to provide fulfillment of the transaction.

Provided is a system for providing removals simulation using VR and AR and brokering real estate therethrough, and the system includes: a background providing unit which extracts background information inside a real estate object provided by a real estate provider and presents the background information to the real estate customer; and an AR providing unit which overlaps props information of a real estate customer on the background information of the real estate object so as to be arbitrarily arranged by the real estate customer, wherein the real estate customer can simulate by overlapping props information on the background information, when the simulation is determined, the determined information is transmitted to a number of moving service servers, and thus provides an advantage in that a number of moving centers can propose moving costs to the real estate customer in a reverse auction manner based on the props information.

A novel networked supply chain marketplace system is described for managing construction resources employing a Server and a plurality of remote Mobile Computing Devices (MCDs). The system employs an advertising (Posting) function, private jobsite communication (Networking) function, and calculation tools. Construction entities (Entities) are onboarded by providing information about their company, what construction resources they Have to offer, and what construction resources that they Need. A graphical map interface selectively shows the locations of Entities, their Haves and Needs, the jobsite location with additional information about each, including search analytics. Entities can Post their Needs. Other entities notify the Posting Entity of their Haves that match the Needs Posted. Optionally, a General Contractor in charge of completing the jobsite invites Entities into a private communication network for a jobsite to manage these entities. Unique tools are used to estimate the volume of various shapes to fill.
