A uniqueness products acquisition system includes a computer-implemented system for customers of all ages to acquire a wide variety of products and be reasonably assured they are the only one or one of a select number with that product in a defined geographic area, subject to inventory control mechanisms and other means, thereby creating absolute or varying levels of uniqueness. According to the approach, customers select their defined geographic area. The customer then selects an item (“brands”) for the selected defined geographic area using a variety of selection/category search criteria. Next, the customer builds the product via a variety of means. Finally, the customer buys the product, potentially under circumstances which ensures their ownership, yet maintaining their anonymity. Further, ownership of the selected item/product is guaranteed for life subject to the restrictions defined by the initial contract between the customer and provider. The contract serves to guarantee a minimum performance by the provider and enhanced value for the customer.
