Short answer: We sell your stuff and give you cash for it. Long answer: The first step is talking or emailing with you and learning about the items you'd like to sell. In most instances, we'll come to your home to view your items and begin to lay out a plan of action. We'll ask questions and learn about your items, their history, where they came from, what you might think their value is and other pertinent details. At this time, we're often able to give you a rough estimate of approximate values. We'll take initial photos, sometimes a weight or measurements and then go back and begin any necessary research. Depending on the item, it's not always a simple determination of value. With jewelry, often we'll get a basic appraisal from our jeweler or research what a certain designer brand is going for. With antiques and collectibles, often further research is needed to understand the item(s) and their sales history. We subscribe to online services that show years worth of auction results for collectible and valuable items. We also scour the internet and eBay for similar items. It's a time consuming process but one that ultimately pays off for you Once the decision is made to move forward and sell the items, we take a series of photographs for each item from every angle. Far away shots and close ups, any pertinent signatures or textures that should be shown. The backgrounds and lighting must be correct to sufficiently highlight each item in the best possible way. After the photographs are taken, they are edited and prepared to be inserted in the listing. Finally, the item is measured and weighed in order to accurately calculate postage. Each listing is created with professional software and includes all aspects of selling your items. From choosing the selling platform(s) to writing a headline that will drive people to your item and everything in between. Photos must be sized correctly, the description must be written in an interesting, enticing way and include all important facts. Shipping must calculated and included, payment terms, length of auction, starting price, reserves, world wide coverage and more are just some of the things that must be covered. With each listing, many emails are exchanged between Online Seller Hawaii and potential buyers. We dedicate as much time as necessary to communicating with people interested in your item. We also give you updates along the way if anything comes up. Once your item(s) is sold, a great deal of paperwork is generated thru online platforms, emails need to be sent to the buyer requesting payment, invoices are sent, payments are received and must be kept track of, and a detailed, itemized list of what's sold and what fees are involved must be calculated and generated for the seller. In addition, the item must now be packed for shipping with the appropriate supplies, mailing labels need to be generated and the items need to be shipped. Finally, payments (cash or check) are issued to the seller and we are done! Each sale can take 1-10 hours to complete (depending on the reserach involved) to sell. Aren't you glad you won't have to be doing any of that work?
