I scanned this, was about to click-onwards, then read -

  "Instant Real-time price negotiation resulting in Instant Gratification for consumer"
I think that is the one line gotcha.. it seems an obvious thing to build a new product around.

So, maybe just lead with that ?

Can it be optimized further... "Realtime price negotiation means Instant Gratification for buyer and seller"

.. keep working it, it'll fly.

I actually found that feature made me angry. So the true price is hidden, and I have to mundanely increase my bid until I find the minimum? Why not just give me the minimum and forget about the gimmick? I quit the video and left the website after seeing that part.
Thanks. Yeah, what you suggested is better wording.
I'd suggest not using "instant gratification."

I see that and think "I had some instant gratification before my date in the shower so I could last longer if I got lucky."
