A Web site sells stolen items
Can You Have More Sales, Too?
Helping over 75,000 businesses like yours raise profits and build customer relationships using AWeber's opt-in email marketing software for over 10 years.
Last year PropertyRoom.com, an auction Web site that sells lost, stolen or forfeited goods from police departments, opened its doors to third-party vendors.
Revenues jumped 33 percent, to $8 million, and are projected to hit $10 million to $12 million in 2006.
PropertyRoom.com has signed up more than 750 departments since it was launched in 1999, and its 70 employees ensure each product’s authenticity and condition.
By extending that vigilance to third-party vendors – conducting background checks on all merchants, including jewelers and electronics sellers – the company hopes to allay the concerns of e-shoppers. “We’re after a fraud-free environment on the Internet,” Lane says.
