Git R DoneLarry the Cable Guy is an honest. regular, red-blooded American guy, an "everyman" redneck who makes observations on the world as he sees it. 

It seems to me that if Larry were to try and sell his own stuff online, he might like to join the community of sellers on OnlineAuction.com

The OLA Rummage sale has created quite a groundswell of interest, not only from the sellers on the OnlineAuction.com site but from new and excited buyers coming to OnlineAuction.com for the very first time. The Rummage sale at last count : There are 6827 Auctions under the  - May 1-8  Rummage Sale  category. 

The grassroots organizers of the OLA rummage sale, prior to the start of the event, had hoped to inspire their fellow sellers to list 10 items each for this special event 7 Day rummage sale.  The thought was to recruit 200 or so sellers to list valuable items on OLA as no reserve .99 cent auctions. This would in turn populate the rummage sale category with at least 2000 items, gaining interest from new buyers, sellers and media alike.  Apparently the organizers struck a chord with the sellers on the site because they have more than tripled the amount of listings they had hoped to get in the RUMMAGE SALE category.

eBayeBay is making changes

The recent changes in eBay have been well documented and yet more are sure to be announced in the coming months. These changes could be positive for the eBay community as a whole (removing under performing sellers) but some sellers on the site are bound to be looking for other options.

Some sellers appear to be thinking the changes on eBay may not fit into their specific business plan, or the sellers may find that their business practices no longer fit into eBay's new plan.  A majority of the eBay sellers will continue to succeed on eBay...

In any case, it is always prudent to be aware of other available channels offering auction and fixed priced goods to the public. Diversification is a meaningful term used by more than stockbrokers.

No matter where you list your items for sale, as a seller it is in your best interest to promote your own merchandise online. Just placing an item in a channel such as eBay and hoping it will sell is not the most effective marketing plan. There are many ways to send traffic to your own merchandise, no matter if it is listed on a standalone eCommerce website, eBay or one of the other channels such as OnlineAuction.com.

Promote your own listings with these simple suggestions... Continue reading “Promote Your Products Online – eBay – OnlineAuction.com Blogs – Forums – Rummage Sales” »

OnlineAuction.com - Rummage Sales and Internet Radio Shows...

As some of you may know, I have been co-hosting a segment on the ebay & Beyond Basics to Business Internet radio show & Podcast hosted by Dave White.  The show is recorded live every Saturday between 10:00 AM and Noon EST. 

Last Saturday ( April 19, 2008 ) the show focused on the OnlineAuction.com Internet auction website with interviews of the CEO of OnlineAuction.com Chris Fain and a selling member of the site Karen "callmemomo" Hammond.

OnlineAuction.com, also known by the acronym OLA, has grown steadily for some time and seems to be in a great position to capitalize upon the recent upheaval within the eBay sellers community.  OnlineAuction.com currently has over 13 million items listed for sale on the site. 

The sellers on OnlineAuction seem to appreciate the feeling of community and the relatively low fee structure. They say OnlineAuction.com is a better place than eBay for them because selling on the site is "fun again" just as they remember eBay selling from years past. The goal of this Rummage Sale is to draw more traffic from the Internet and compete more closely with eBay.

Rummage Sale

Karen is one of the grass roots organizers of an event called the OnlineAuction.com Rummage Sale.  The Rummage Sale has been organized by individual sellers on the site and not by the site itself. The OnlineAuction.com management is fully behind this groundswell of involvement from its sellers and they endorse the Rummage Sale which will be launched May 1st.
