Product Shortages Continue in U.S.

By //  by 

Product shortages continue to make it difficult for consumers to get the things they want and need. Despite efforts to get more product into the country, worker shortages and absences due to COVID-19 have led to empty shelves in many states. Even when stores are able to stock their shelves, popular items sell out fast and restocking simply isn’t an option.

It’s not uncommon for several stores to have the same product shortages. Shopping online doesn’t provide much relief either. Many ecommerce stores do not have the inventory needed to fulfill orders. When online orders go through, shipping delays create additional problems. It can take weeks to get popular products.

Shopping Through Online Auction Provides a Cost-Effective Alternative to Visiting the Store

Shopping through online auction allows consumers to get the things they want and need when they need them. Bidding starts low and winning bidders can get name brand products at a fraction of their MSRP value. Because many online auction companies offer local pick-up, bidders can pick-up their items immediately after the auction closes. This saves money and helps shoppers avoid shipping delays.

Bidders that participate in online auctions can choose from a wide range of items and categories. Many of the items offered through online auction are typically sold in retail stores around the country. These auctions provide an opportunity for shoppers to get the things they want without waiting for stores to restock their shelves.

Most of the items offered through online auction are customer returns or overstock product from big box stores. This product is “like new” or only gently used. Many items come in their original packing with instruction manuals included.

Choosing an Auction Platform

When searching for an online auction company, it’s important to choose a company with an easy-to-use auction platform. Before registering to bid, explore the website to see available items and the type of support that’s offered. Features like Live Chat on the website allow you to communicate instantly with the company. It’s also important to find an auction company that accepts returns of items that don’t meet your expectations.

Lots Of Auctions offers daily auctions in Denton, Dallas, and Haltom, Texas as well as Cape Girardeau, Missouri. Our online auction platform is easy to use and bidding starts at only $5.

By //  by 

Online auctions provide a convenient and affordable way to get what you need for less. Bidding typically starts low and bidders have the chance to win name brand products for well below their MSRP value. A large portion of the population utilizes these types of auctions to get everything from home goods and pet supplies to gifts and hard to find collectibles.

While most people understand the benefits of shopping through online auction, it’s not uncommon for first time bidders to worry about buying something that doesn’t work. After all, it’s impossible to view the item in-person before placing your first bid. This is why it’s important to locate an auction company that accepts returns.

Participating in Our Online Auctions

Bidders that participate in our online auctions can pick-up their items immediately after the auction closes. Bidders can find the pick-up dates and location listed on each auction on our website. Winning bidders have seven days from auction close to arrange pick-up of their items. If something doesn’t meet the expectations of the bidder, they can return that item to the same location within seven days for a refund.

Our return policy applies to all items available in our online auctions, except those sold AS IS. These items will be marked clearly in both the title and the description. For example, the pallets available in our pallet auction are sold as is and returns on these pallets are not accepted. Each pallet includes around 15-20% fallout or unusable product. It’s strongly recommended that bidders purchasing items for personal use or gifts bid on individual items instead of pallets. Our pallet auction is perfect for resellers and open-air market vendors.

How Long Do Online Auctions Last?

By //  by 

The length of an online auction varies from one website to the next. At Lots Of Auctions, most of our online auctions last six days. However, the length of time can vary based on several factors including the number of lots being sold and the type of auction. For example, our estate auctions often last a little longer than our typical auction.

Online auctions are different from live auctions where people meet in a physical location to bid on various items. These in-person auctions typically last one day or less. During an online auction, bidders place bids on multiple items over the course of several days. On the final day, the auction starts closing at the designated time.

Auction companies like Lots Of Auctions utilize a popcorn bidding system. The system automatically extends the end time of the auction when bidders place bids in the final minutes of the auction. This system ensures everyone has the opportunity to place their final bids before the auction closes. While popcorn bidding may extend the end time of an auction by a few hours, it won’t typically carry the auction into the following day.

Benefits

Many people enjoy participating in online auctions. These auctions allow bidders to compete against each other for the items they want. This is typically much more fun than visiting your local department store. Another benefit, winning bidders can get name brand products at a much lower cost than possible anywhere else.

Many people adopt new pets during the holiday season. These pets bring us so much joy. However, it’s not uncommon for pet parents to be surprised by the high cost of pet supplies.

How It Works

Participating in an online auction is easy. After registering to bid, bidders can view all items in the auction. Bidders can choose to enter a one-time bid or a “highest bid”. When a highest bid is entered, the system bids on the bidder’s behalf, up until the amount entered. Once the bidder gets outbid, they receive an email notification. At this time, they can either increase their maximum bid or forfeit the auction. Bidding starts low, and bidders can typically get name brand items for well under MSRP value.

Make More Money in the New Year

By //  by 

As 2021 comes to an end, many resellers are looking for ways to increase profits in the New Year. Although many options exist, the following are some of the most common:

Open Air Markets

Many resellers utilize open air markets and swap meets to get their product in front of potential customers. These markets typically operate only on the weekends and can attract thousands of locals. Selling through open air markets is an excellent way to increase consumer awareness and boost sales. However, most resellers do not make enough money selling through open air markets to make this their only job.

Ecommerce Website

While selling products online through an ecommerce website can boost sales, resellers must spend a lot of time ensuring customers find their business online. This can be extremely challenging with so many other resellers offering similar products. Unfortunately, many resellers and small businesses simply cannot stay in business if they only sell their products through an ecommerce website.

Retail Store

Another option, resellers can open a store in a popular area. Depending on the location and size of the business, this can cost resellers a considerable amount of money.

Online Auction

Smart resellers understand the importance of maximizing exposure. The more people that see the business and the products they offer, the more likely they are to remember the business when they need something they offer. Using a multi-faceted approach is the best way to maximize exposure and increase the chance of success. This is especially true for businesses offering a large selection of products.

Selling through online auction allows resellers to get their product in front of thousands of customers. Because bidding takes place entirely online, resellers have the opportunity to reach bidders all over the country.

Locating an Auction Company

It’s important that resellers locate a respected auction company to work with. Look for a company that offers targeted marketing. This helps ensure the right message reaches the right consumer. This could mean all the difference in the world when selling through online auction.

It’s Not Too Late to Do Your Holiday Shopping

By //  by 

It seems like everyone is talking about shipping delays and product shortages this holiday season. It’s not just talk, supply chain issues caused by the pandemic have caused product shortages in many parts of the country. Retail stores everywhere are selling out of popular items. Many will not get new product in stock until after the holidays are over.

Shopping online has its own problems as well. While many websites advertise available product, most small businesses do not have a way to get product to their customers in time for the holidays. Even large companies are struggling with shipping delays this year. There simply isn’t enough time or resources to get product in the hands of consumers in a timely manner.

Last minute shoppers will have a difficult time completing their shopping this year. Many will need to come up with new ideas and solutions.

Labor Shortages Causing Product Shortages & Shipping Delays Around Country

Labor shortages continue to impact companies throughout the United States. Fueled by the global pandemic, labor shortages are expected to stick around through the start of 2022. The longer it takes businesses to find new employees, the less likely that people will be able to get what they need.

Get What You Need for Less Through Online Auction

Consumers looking for new ways to shop this holiday season could benefit from shopping through online auction. However, it’s important to locate a respectable auction company that offers local pick-up close to your home or office. This helps avoid shipping delays. Winning bidders can have product in hand immediately after the auction closes.

Online auctions like those offered through Lots Of Auctions often include hard to find and discontinued items. Bidding starts low and bidders have the opportunity to get a wide range of items at a fraction of their MSRP value. Even resellers can benefit from shopping through online auction. Many online auction platforms offer pallets of product for sale in addition to individual items. While the pallets included in these auctions may include a few unusable items (fallout), these auctions provide an excellent way for resellers to keep their shelves stocked and their customers happy.
