Online Auctions and Liquidations

Benefits of Buying Liquidation Pallets Through Auction

By //  by 

Open air and ecommerce sellers are often surprised by the high cost of keeping their shelves stocked. In order to save money, these resellers may purchase liquidation name brand product by the pallet. Buying pallets of liquidation merchandise allows resellers to keep their shelves fully stocked, for a fraction of the cost of buying direct from the manufacturer.

What is Liquidation?

Liquidation refers to customer returns, overstock, and shelf pulls. When retailers need to make room for new product, they sell their liquidation by the pallet or truckload to liquidation suppliers. It is then sold to resellers and open-air market vendors.

Buying Liquidation Pallets Through Online Auction

While many resellers choose to partner with an experienced liquidation supplier to purchase pallets of merchandise, this isn’t the only option. Resellers can also purchase pallets of liquidation through online auction platforms like Lots of Auctions.

Buying liquidation pallets through online auction typically costs less than purchasing pallets of merchandise directly from a liquidation supplier. Bidding typically starts low, and many pallets sell for well under their MSRP value.

Is Buying Through Online Auction Right For Me?

While purchasing pallets through online auction allows resellers to get lots of merchandise for less, resellers do not get to find out what’s in the pallet before the auction. These pallets are generally sold AS IS and returns are not possible. It’s important to understand the terms of the auction before bidding.

Finding the Best Deals Through Online Auction

By //  by 

Online auctions allow consumers to get name brand products for less money than possible at a department store. Bidding starts low, and most items end up selling for well below their MSRP value. While bidders can often find a large selection of items to choose from, it can be a challenge to determine the best deals in these auctions.

Choosing an Online Auction Platform

When choosing an online auction website, look for a company that lists current MSRP value in their item descriptions. It doesn’t hurt to do your own research as well. If something doesn’t seem right, look it up online. Keep in mind that ecommerce websites like Amazon often list items at a lower price. Correct MSRP value can be found at on the manufacturer’s website or through major retail chains.

Many auction platforms feature special deals on their social media pages. Following an auction company on social media allows you to view available items before registering to bid.

Deciding What to Bid On

Most people choose to bid on items with a high MSRP value. Doing so increases potential savings. If bidding starts at $5 on an item worth $500, it’s a good chance the bidder is going to get it for less through online auction. The only difference is hard to find items.

Online auctions often carry discontinued or hard to find items. Demand for these items might be extremely high. This can drive prices up. Depending on the type of item, it may sell for over its MSRP value through online auction. This is because so many people are trying to win. The more bids get placed, the higher the final cost.

Although bidders can find numerous high value items through online auction, some of the more popular auctions include kitchen accessories, home improvement supplies, and electronics. These auctions often include high value items.

Online auctions provide an exciting and convenient opportunity to get the things you want and need for less money than visiting the store. Why not give it a try? Click here to register to bid!

Save Money Shopping Through Online Auction

By //  by 

It seems like everything goes up in price each day. It’s not just your imagination, prices have been rising in the U.S. as the economy recovers from the global pandemic. Prices have risen 4.3% since July 2020 on most items. This has left many people skipping out on the things they want. Fortunately, there’s a better way.

Shopping through online auction allows consumers to get the things they want and need for less than they would pay in a big box store. Bidding typically starts low, and bidders can get name brand products at a fraction of their MSRP value.

Choosing an Online Auction Platform

Every day, thousands of people participate in online auctions to compete for the best price. These auctions provide an exciting and cost-effective way to shop. However, it can be difficult to find an online auction platform that offers the things you want. Many auction websites only offer antiques or vintage items. While there’s nothing wrong with buying these items, it’s not practical to buy everyday products this way.

Look for an online auction platform that offers a large selection of products from multiple categories. For example, look for an auction company that offers everything from kitchen appliances to home electronics and toys. The more often new auctions launch, the more likely you are to find exactly what you need.

If possible, look for an auction company close to your home or office. Many online auction companies require you to pick-up your items from their warehouse. Even if they offer shipping, it costs less to pick-up the items yourself. This makes returns easier as well.

Lots of Categories & Products to Choose From

Lots of Auctions offers a variety of products through our online auctions. Bidders can choose from multiple categories and bidding for most items starts at only $5. Our online auctions start each day and winning bidders can choose between shipping within the United States and local pick-up.

Pallets of Products Available Now Through Online Auction!

Many resellers purchase pallets of liquidation merchandise to keep their shelves stocked. These pallets often contain name brand merchandise. However, purchasing liquidation pallets can cost a lot of money up front. Shopping for liquidation pallets through online auction allows resellers to get pallets of merchandise at a fraction of their MSRP value. Bidding often starts low, and it’s not uncommon for pallets of product to sell for under $500.

Choosing an Online Auction Platform

Shopping for liquidation pallets through online auction is an exciting way to get lots of products at deeply discounted prices. However, it’s important to take your time when locating an auction company to buy from. While lots of online auction platforms exist, not all provide the same value. It’s important to look for an auction platform with a large customer base and a large selection. Auction websites that only run one or two auctions per week probably don’t have the type of inventory you need.

Ideally, the online auction platform you choose should work with a trusted supplier. Unless liquidation pallets are all the company offers, it’s likely their pallets come from another company. For example, Lots of Auctions offers pallets of liquidation products through our partnership with Discount Truckloads. Discount Truckloads has been in business since the early 2000s. Since that time, the company has become a leading supplier of pallets and truckloads.

When buying pallets through online auction, most are sold “AS IS”. This means that pallets are non-refundable and resellers are not permitted to preview the items before moving the pallet to their location. This is the main reason why it’s so important to locate an online auction platform that partners with a reliable supplier.

Lots of Auctions has held numerous auctions in Texas and Missouri. Thousands of bidders participate in our auctions each day. New pallet auctions start each week. Auctions run for six days, and bidders can choose to place a one-time bid, or allow the system to bid on their behalf up until a pre-determined amount.
