I've been selling on ebay for 5 years. I tried OLA for one year, and sold 1 item. I sell
40 items per month on ebay. The traffic is virtually non-existent. Their plan for marketing is, "tell your friends." The fees may be very low, and there may not be many rules, but I also find myself going into my account to delete many pages or merchandise I manage to sell on ebay that just sat there on OLA. Don't waste your time. The owners and managers troll every page trying to save and jumpstart their image; but it's just sad.

We sell gov't surplus online. Our company is approaching its first anniversary with Online Auction (OLA). We were very experienced with eBay, and tried OLA as an experiment to avoid the profit-killing sell fees and policies that eBay enforces. From our very first auction at OLA, we have been absolutely delighted with the quality of service, their responsiveness to issues, and high value they offer - at a much much lower cost than eBay. We're very happy, we're not going anywhere else, and hope you join us on the best auction site on the Net: www.onlineauction.com.

OnlineAuction.com is THE place to sell! I run my business MY way, I am not censored, there are just a few common sense rules to follow. I don't have to figure what my final value/listing fees when setting prices because there aren't any! One fee $96.00 a YEAR does it all! And that will never go up on me! I have plenty of people who help when needed and a live Customer Service person! If I have a personal website, I can add my link in my listings! OLA is growing and here to stay! And I will be right there with them!

I LOVE onlineauction.com!
November 12, 2015

I've been both a seller and buyer at onlineauction.com for years. You can't beat the fees ($8 a month... no final value fees or anything like that). The staff is great! And I've never had an issue with purchases. There are a lot of great sellers and buyers here and getting bigger and better all the time. The owners aren't greedy and customer service is actually live people who want to make the experience the best you've ever had. The company does not bog you down with rules you can't, or barely can, live with. You run your listings/store your own way. Like I said, I've been here many years and I plan to stay for many more!

Sellers can use OLA as a sales tool without interference. They don't tell us when or how to ship, what type of payments we can or cannot use, or what links are allowed or not allowed in our listings. This is truly a free enterprise venue.

I recently transferred from eBay and I am satisfied with the site. I like the ability to list as many items as I want for only $8 a month and no final value fees. Their customer support is great. I hope to grow my business with them.

I like ONLINE AUCTION
November 13, 2015

I like this auction site, great customer service! I like the fact that I can list what I want and how many for any length of time. I think it depends on what you are selling that gets the most sales. Coins and jewelry are big sellers at OLA. Some vintage glassware sells good also. The most important to me is not to have the hassel like at Ebay. I guess you just have to give it a try, I personally like Online Auction.

All of the pluses with none of the problems that sellers experience on eBay. OLA is growing by leaps and bounds in terms of both buyer and seller traffic as eBay's downward spiral continues. One of the fastest growing online ecommerce sites, ideal for sellers of all sizes, including small "mom and pop" sellers that eBay is systematically eliminating.

Bid on a mans watch as per discription, turns out its a womens watch. They are trying to pass this tiny watch off as a mans watch. So 700 Euros later and absolute intransigence from customer service I have been told in essence "too bad"

This site is amazing and so different than the others. You are literally the store owner. You make your own decisions. Your business lives or dies depending on your own work ethics. Anyone who doesn't succeed has only themselves to blame. If you want a site to run your business, if you want to operate under the thumb of a site and all their rules, then OnlineAuction.com isn't for you. If you want to run your own business, set your own rules and policies, if you honestly want to run your own business without overhead or big brother breathing down your neck... if you're willing to do the work for your business, you will succeed at OnlineAuction.com. You can't truly be in charge of your own destiny if big brother runs your business, over rides your policies, tells you how much to charge, when to mail, what your prices can be, etc. So Be In Charge Of Your Own Destiny At OnlineAuction.com! You deserve better than you're getting elsewhere!

My company bought machines and equipment for about 7000EUR on an auction run by Hilco Industries last year. Almost all the machines with electric compenents in them were broken or damaged, and we could have gotten much more for our money if we had bought new tools. I will never buy used equipment again.

For those looking for a place to sell that doesn't have a ton of rules and requirements, and only costs $8.00 per month with no associated fees to worry about, Online Auction is the place. I love the look and the feel of the site, and the people are so nice and helpful; the other seller members are always happy to help each other out too. I like the low cost, and always know what I will be paying for my subscription to the site.
OLA was declared silver winner for best internet auction site in this years TopTen Reviews for 2014. See review: http://online-auction-sites.toptenreviews.com/onlineauction-com-review.html
Give this site a shot, as it will be the go to site in the near future; in my personal opinion.

I am a frequent purchaser of cycling gear, I ordered 6 winter thermal cycling sets from the seller RINGWISE and had no problem at all. To make sure I was not scammed I initially ordered the 1st set which arrived in due time, I then order 2 more sets which also arrived in time and have carried on ordering since, this seller sends you photos of the parcels as well as the tracking information as soon as the items are paid for. From my experience I can recommend this seller. V. Fernandes (Portugal)
