- eBay Trading Assistant Consultant Professionals
Consignment
For Local Clients
When local clients place an item
on consignment with IslandAuctionAssist for sale on eBay, three
options are availalbe:
(1) whether to keep the item
in your possession and package and ship the item yourself; (2)
keep the item until sold, at which time IslandAuctionAssist shall
pick up, package, and ship the item; or (3) permit IslandAuctionAssist
to take the item at the time of contract signing and keep it in
storage until sold, at which time IslandAuctionAssist shall package
and ship the item. Depending upon your own circumstances, one
of the three options will be best for you. IslandAuctionAssist
always lets our Sellers choose how to address storage, packaging,
and shipping. (Please click HERE,
or on the 'Shipping' link to the right for more information)
If you are located within driving
distance, IslandAuctionAssist will travel to your location, free
of charge, for a consultation. As stated above, we take the item
for consignment only if you wish, as an item may also be left
in the custody of the owner until such time as the item sells,
when we will return with a bank check or money order and pick
up the items for packaging and shipping. IslandAuctionAssist safely
keeps all items in secure, climate controlled storage until your
item sells. (Please click HERE,
or on the 'Fee Structure' link at right, for more details regarding
our eBay Trading Assistant Fee Structure)
With our impeccable eBay reputation
and attention to detail, our eBay buyers trust our name. When
it comes to eBay, a high feedback rating is absolutely crucial.
It can, and will, make the difference between an item selling,
and not selling. Check our feedback on eBay, and see for yourself
what our past buyer have said about dealing with us. Buyers
on eBay will NOT purchase rare items from an
unproven seller! (Please click

or on the 'eBay Feedback' link above for our eBay feedback records)
Some of our regular Third Party
Seller clients located nearby, within New York City and its surrounding
environs, choose to keep the item on-site, and take care of packaging
and shipping themselves. This usually provides a faster turnaround
for the internet buyer, and works well for those of our clients
whose establishments are already in the habit of shipping packages
daily.
However, we at IslandAuctionAssist
welcome consignments from private individuals, as well as business
clients. Nearly 100% of the individuals we work with would rather
not have to deal with shipping, and so we will always provide
the option of taking care of all dealing with eBay (or other internet
site) buyers, including packaging, and shipment.
Distance
Consignment For Clients Outside of the NYC Metro Area
If you or your business or gallery
is not within, or near, the New York City metro area, you may
still list your items with us. There are two alternative methods
of having IslandAuctionAssist sell your item:
Method 1: Simply mail your item
as an insured, Registered, Return-Receipt USPS, UPS, or Fedex
package, and include the contract that we will e-mail or fax you
once you e-mail or call us about our Distance Consignment Program.
IslandAuctionAssist will store the item, list the item on eBay,
and when the item sells, package and ship to the auction winner.
Once the item sells, IslandAuctionAssist will pay the cost you
incurred shipping the item to us.
Method 2: If you would prefer
to keep the item on-site and ship to the eBay buyer yourself,
IslandAuctionAssist will gladly work with you. A signed contract
must be mailed back to IslandAuctionAssist, (we will provide this;
please e-mail for the form).
Please note: Not all items will
be eligible for Distance Consignment; please e-mail for details.
Exclusivity
Individuals choosing to employ
the services of IslandAuctionAssist must cease all attempts to
procure a sale in competing and /or non-competing markets, whether
online or in the 'real world', while the item is listed on eBay,
and the signed contract is in effect.
If the item is from a gallery
or museum collection; or if you are representing the item and
/ or its creator; or you are the creator of the item being sold,
then you MAY continue to attempt to procure a sale on your own,
and follow through with such sale, even at such times that your
item is currently listed with IslandAuctionAssist on eBay, or
other internet sites. However, IslandAuctionAssist insists that
such attempts not be made in competing markets.
Other
Sites & the 'Real World'
IslandAuctionAssist reserves the
right to list your item on other internet sites, e-markets, message
hubs, and professionals' selling lists. We also reserve the right
to sell your item in the 'real world', when possible. (Please

or on the Free Listing on Other High Traffic Sites' link to the
right for more information)
