This is the 3rd acquisition for Auctioning4u, following the acquisition of Auctionicity in 2005, and Auction Partner earlier this year. The purchase of Trading Nation further strengthens the Auctioning4u brand, consolidating its position as the UK’s number one eBay service provider and Drop Off Shop for consumers and businesses and also specializing in providing high quality eBay Consulting services involving all aspects of Auction management software and market leading eBay Templates.
Marcus Stone, Director Business Services of Auctioning4u said: “we are pleased to announce that, from immediate effect, we are taking over the Trading Nation brand name. We are in discussions with Trading Nation’s customers and can hopefully provide them with the continuity their businesses need.”
Jeff Kaye, former CEO of Trading Nation said: “Now in their fourth year, Auctioning4u have proved they know what it takes to run a successful eBay drop off business. I would be very happy to see them take over Trading Nation’s existing clients since I know that they have the necessary resources and capabilities.”
Christian Braun, CEO of Auctioning4u adds: “Jeff and his team did a great job of building Trading Nation into a dynamic business-to-business specialist. It has become clear to all of us in the industry that it is a capital intensive sector requiring purpose built facilities and proprietary auction management software as well as auction templates. We are grateful to Jeff for his co-operation in transferring the business and wish him the best in his new venture”.
Auctioning4u is the UK’s leading chain of eBay drop-off shops, created to help people sell via this popular auction site which currently attracts over 192 million customers from around the world each year. Through Auctioning4u-eBay drop off shop, customers can sell items via eBay without the hassle of writing descriptions, monitoring the auction process or dealing with payments and shipping. Auctioning4u will set everything up on eBay - customers just have to clean out their cupboards and decide what to sell. Auctioning4u does the rest - if you can’t make it to the shop with your load, the company can even arrange to pick items up for a small fee. Once an item is accepted and registered, you can just go home, put your feet up and wait for the cheque to arrive six weeks later. Auctioning4u also offers its service to charities and companies.
