A sight-unseen transaction refers to an agreement made without a physical inspection of the item or property being acquired. Synonyms for this term include "remote sale," "virtual transaction," and "blind purchase." In the world of e-commerce, sight-unseen transactions are becoming more common as consumers purchase items online without seeing them in person. This type of transaction requires a great deal of trust between the buyer and seller, as well as a detailed description and clear images of the item being sold. Other related terms include "distance sale," "online transaction," and "mail-order purchase." Despite the lack of physical interaction, sight-unseen transactions have become an increasingly popular way to buy and sell items.
