Take Your Business Online with KC Direct Auctions and Online Stores. You can Start Buying or Selling Online Today! The internet has changed lots of things including how we conduct auctions. On-Line auctions gives us the capability to reach buyers from all over the world. People are no longer required to attend a auction in person, but instead can participate from their home or office and they can participate in multiple auctions at the same time. On-line auctions can benefit you as a seller in many ways, Business Owners, Individuals, Banks, Collectors, Lenders, Farmers, Government, Schools, etc... now have the ability to sell their assets at auction using only a few pictures and a detailed description. This allows the seller to save money and overhead in transporting and delivering the goods to be sold to a new location. You can sell 1 item or sell an entire estate or liquidation through our on-line auctions. We at KCDirectAuctions can help. If you are an auctioneer and you are not holding auctions online you are missing out on a huge market. You can go for as big an area as the world, or if you don’t want to ship you can keep it local and have the winning buyers pick up the item if you don’t want to ship. Sellers such as Bob Day find online auctions more efficient and profitable. Day, who liquidates business inventories online, used to sell the goods in a retail store. Then he discovered that he could slash expenses by selling online. “The growth in online auctions has exploded in the last five years,” said Mayo, a former board member of the National Auctioneers Association. “Online auctions are reaching a bigger audience that would never come to a live auction.” The advantages of online auctions, analysts said, are that the potential audience is much wider and bidders can participate from all over the world. Wide variety It’s not all heavy equipment. Ron White of St. Louis Park has bought and sold sports memorabilia, office supplies and furniture on local sites. “I can get better prices selling and more variety buying,” he said. The big advantage that online auctions have is the number of people watching. One of the largest of Minnesota’s online auctions, has about 150,000 bidders. “Consumers can see it and pick it up themselves,” he said. “And if they’re selling, they don’t have strangers coming into their home.” Many of the items — bridge-making equipment, for example — are too large to be moved economically, even within the metro area, so they stay put until they’re sold at the auction. At a recent auction of Day’s with 722 lots, nearly 100,000 potential buyers looked at his auction and 10,000 of them made bids. “It costs me less than eBay,” Day said. After the auction goes live, bidders generally have a day for viewing, 10 to 14 days to bid and one day to pick up their items. Our auction durations range from 1 day to 2 months and you can also set custom durations. Now you may not want to put in the time and money into buying, setting up, and organizing the auction software, paying for website hosting, buying and managing domain names. Well I have some good news for you! We at KCDirectAuctions have already done all of that for you. We have spent the last couple of years setting up our own auction site. We are very small and have a hard time competing with the older, more established auctions. Then one day I was talking to a friend of mine and he point blank ask me “You have everything set up. Why don’t you just run the site and offer to let other auctioneers from all over the country use it to start running their own online auctions and just charge a small percentage of their actual sales?” Well I could not come up with a reason why not. We at KCDirectAuctions (also kcdoa) have the site already set up and ready to go. We can set up custom categories and subcategories for your auctions and with our second category option your items can be listed in the general category section as well if you like. We can also offer online stores if you want something more permanent.
