First we heard that I sold it UK was going into receivership. Now the company Auctioning4u who brought its assets is closing the drop off store model in favour of a centralised system. The drop of stores will become more like ‘pick up stores’ with home collection or customers posting the item to be sold on eBay. Personally I don’t think this model can work. I hope it does, but the most likely response is people who are unable to sell the item on ebay themselves will get someone they know to do it for them. I know this as I have had to sell things on ebay for family and friends many a time!
Is this evident of just a wonky business model or the reducing ebay traffic and sales ebay uk has seen over the past 12 months?
