How It Works
Three steps, no ambiguity about what you're getting.
1. Browse and choose a parcel
Fifty parcels are available in this first release, spread across five named Mars regions — Olympus Mons Foothills, Valles Marineris Rim, Tharsis Highlands, Amazonis Planitia, and Elysium Rise. Each is between 1 and 25 acres and comes with its own plat of survey: a subdivision diagram with bearings, distances, corner monuments, and an areographic (Mars latitude/longitude) reference, drawn in the style of a real land survey.
2. Reserve it for $19.99 plus shipping
Every parcel page shows an "estate valuation" that scales with acreage and region, the way a real listing would. What you actually pay is the same item price for every parcel: $19.99. That price covers a Deed of Gift certificate naming the recipient and a printed plat of survey for the exact parcel. Shipping isn't included — actual USPS Ground Advantage postage is calculated at checkout based on your address and added on top. The valuation is part of the presentation, not the price — we think that's clearer than pretending otherwise.
Parcels are listed for sale individually on eBay, not all 50 at once — a parcel's "View on eBay" button only appears once that parcel actually has an active listing. Anything not listed yet just links back here; check back as more go up.
3. Give it
It arrives as a small keepsake package: a certificate and a survey print. It's meant to be a good story at a dinner table, not a financial instrument.
What you are and aren't buying
You're buying a novelty gift set. You are not buying real property. The 1967 Outer Space Treaty holds that celestial bodies are not subject to national appropriation, and no government on Earth currently recognizes private land claims on Mars. See our full Terms & Novelty Disclosure for details.
