Online Auction Gives New Life to Old Shoes
eBay, the behemoth of shoe sites has spawned many competitors in its time and none can come close in matching their market share. With millions of sales taking place each year, other online auction websites can only pray for a small slice of the action. Others follow a different route and offer their cliental a different sort of experience that is hard to match on an impersonal site such as eBay. Therefore, for the women out there who wish to trade their unwanted shoes, what online auction options are they presented with?
The new website has a simple name, IfTheShoeDoesntFit.com – an online megastore that matches up wasted Christmas present shoes with owners who will fully appreciate them. The owner of the website, Ellen Simes operates her website a little differently to the other online auction hubs. For one, she handpicks each and every vendor that will be trading their wares on her site. Additionally, all sellers are also able to personally barter as well as sell their shoes online. What better way to get rid of a pair work boots for a smooth set of stiletto heels?
The aim was to create a simplified website, which anyone can use without the feeling intimidation. All sellers can list their shoes for a measly $1 – with that price being refunded to them once the sale goes through (the site still makes a small portion of that money back through trading costs). In another strange turn of events, multiple sellers can now manage a single store, a sort of a partnership can be formed with likeminded individuals; and very soon the site owner expects to build in the function to offer discounts for all dealers on the website. If you are searching for the ideal workwear as you trudge back to your job, give this online auction website a visit and see if you can find a pair of shoes that are ideal for you.
