The Sellery Brings an eBay Twist to the Consignment Industry

Austin, TX, February 11, 2010 --(PR.com)-- The Sellery is an eBay consignment company that is putting a new twist to selling on eBay or on consignment because it does both. Their ebay consignment service lets you sell items on eBay through a consignment model where they auction your stuff and they get a commission of the selling price. With thousands of people overloaded with stuff thinking that storage is the only option, this new service creates a great opportunity in this struggling economy.

Since 2006, The Sellery has paid out more than $250,000 to consignors and has done over 4,000 successful eBay transactions. The Sellery is an official eBay Trading Assistant and eBay PowerSeller selling under the user id: thesellery.78754. Using tools like eBay, PayPal, SelleryTools, GarageSale and Auctiva, they list items on eBay quickly and efficiently, selling them using 7 and 10 day listings to maximize exposure.

Not to be confused with a traditional consignment store, The Sellery does not offer any items to non-eBay members, so you cannot walk into their store and just buy something. You can browse the inventory and place a bid on whatever you like and you might win the item after the auction ends. eBay is so big that walk in traffic is not necessary. There are millions of registered members all over the world ready to buy almost anything.

The consignment process is simple: Bring your items to The Sellery so they can screen out the non sellable items. Clothing, china and furniture are the big non sellable categories but there are a lot more listed on their website, . Sellable items include electronics, collectibles, musical instruments and computers. There are hundreds of other categories that also sell well so it is best to check out the list on the http://thesellery.com/whatsells. The Sellery recommends calling in first for an over the phone consultation of your items to see how many of them will sell. If you are in Austin, you can drop off your items at their shop, have them pick them up or if you are outside of Austin you can mail in your items using their mail in service.

Once your items are listed you receive an email with a link to your auctions and another email once they end showing you how much they sold for and how much your check will be. The Sellery handles the entire process from listing to packing and shipping of your items too so once they have your items you do not have to lift a finger just to open the check.

Plans for 2010 include expanding to other markets across central Texas as well as offering franchise opportunities to eBay sellers who want to take their existing eBay consignment business to another level.
