There are enormous benefits and many advantages to using an experienced full time, registered Trading Assistant to sell  your items on eBay.  Here are some of them:

 

  • The Dalles e-Auctions has 700+ positive eBay feedback. Buyers will bid on items being listed by member with a trustworthy reputation.
  • We have been an eBay member since 9-12-2000. Buyers prefer doing business with a member who has a long-standing Ebay member history.
  • We have the knowledge and resources on how to get the most bids and highest price for seller’s items.
  • We use state of the art, clear digital pictures, a major key in bringing in more bids at higher final prices.
  • We list as a full time job. Not after work or in spare time.
  • We have an established Pay Pal merchant account so that credit cards can be accepted (securely) on line.  This promotes more bids at higher amounts and faster payment.
  • We have an established line of credit with eBay so there is no listing limit.
  • We offer $500 buyer protection to bidders who use Pay Pal.  This is just like insurance and gives bidders the confidence to bid high & pay electronically.
  • We run a ebay market appraisal check through a special service prior to listing item to assist seller in determining beginning auction price.
  • A link to the auction(s) is provided so that seller may view auction(s) at anytime during and after the auction.
  • A print out of auction page showing final bid price will be furnished to the seller without internet access.

  But the very best benefit of all is it’s a quick, easy, no hassle way for you to sell your items and put cash in your pocket!  Simply drop off your item (pick ups can also be arranged), allow eBay members (currently 66 million US) to bid against each other for it, and then you receive a check.
