Deep Discount Auctions at Liquidation.com

by Mark on June 8, 2009

liquidLooking for great deals on normally high-priced items has gotten a lot easier thanks to online retailers like Liquidation.com. Gathering surplus goods from a variety of manufacturers means a large inventory of popular goods at discount prices.

Their wholesale electronics category alone looks similar to what you would expect from nationally recognized stores. The best part is that in addition to the huge selection, these products are sold on an auction model, which as we all know, has proven to be a very successful model for many online businesses. For example, they are currently offering an Xbox 360 arcade console w/bonus game bundled with a Nikon CoolPix digital camera, Acer LCD monitor, and with a current bid of $525. The MSRP on something like this would cost you over $1,200. That’s more than double the current bid!

The interesting thing about how they run auctions is that each one is extended by three minutes after the last bid is submitted. I’ve seen this feature elsewhere and it seems to be catching on as it reduces the chance of being sniped — people who come in at the very last second the auction is about to expire and submit a new bid winning them the product. Speaking as someone who has been sniped more than a few times, I can tell you this is pretty cool.

Other categories include, housewares, industrial equipment, apparel, vehicles, to name a few. Depending on the auction, you can expect to find single products for sale all the way up to truckloads of them in conditions ranging from new to used. Want to save some money? Give Liquidations.com a try and you will.
