What is the ruling on selling goods from internet sites by providing a link to the item for the customer to see its details and price, with the seller's role being to purchase the item for people from the website and convert the price from hard currency to the seller's currency with an added profit margin, and after the customer agrees and deposits the amount, the seller pays the website from his account in hard currency?
This transaction is valid if it is regulated according to a Salam contract, which obliges the seller to deliver the agreed-upon commodity by description, not by specific item, as soon as she receives the full price from the customer, regardless of its price, currency, or subsequent price fluctuations.
