I recently came across another site for you to offer your products at. Stootsi is an alternative to eBay or an additional site to expose your product.  The site is clean and easy to navigate through. You can shop stootsi items, other sellers items or you can offer your product.  If you are familiar with both eBay and Amazon sites, then you might find this site to be a mashup of them.  Unlike eBay you can brand yourself and external links are allowed. The links to be linked to additional information on product or company policies.

 Top 3 reasons why stootsi stands out from the competition:

 -          Feedback automatically left on your account after 21 days (as long as there are no disputes)

 -          No listings fees

 -          Sale and transaction fees are less than other sites

Listings

If you have more than 50 items to list, you can use the Integration tool offered by stootsi to facilitate your experience. Once uploaded your inventory will appear in stootsi store front and shopping engines such as Google and Yahoo Search Engines. Totally SEO friendly.

Your Listing page offers links to “Seller Listings”, ask Seller a question, more about seller and a Nice Large “add to cart” button.

Seller Profile allows you to place your Policies and additional information about yourself.

Fees

Sale Fee of 5% plus 2.5% + .30 per Transaction Fee. That’s it.

Payments

No PayPal account needed. Payments are processed through stootsi. This means that your buyer will submit credit card payment to stootsi, then stootsi will release payment to you within 14 days. This process is similar to Amazon. Money is deposited electronically to your bank or to your PayPal account. What’s more, is that stootsi will not hold your funds or place any limitations on the funds. Once your seller account is verified you are good to go.

Feedback

Get this, you automatically get positive feedback posted after 21 days from date of transaction.  How outstanding is that…. As sellers we know that feedback is not always posted. You may get 20-40% of buyers to leave feedback.  As you know eBay can allow up to 45 days to post feedback on a listing. Even then buyers may not leave feedback.

Access Manager

I will let you know how the “Access Seller Manager” works for me. According to stootsi “Access Seller Manager” allows you to:

View orders, add inventory, upload tracking information, and more.

• Answer questions and resolve customer inquiries in a reasonable amount of time
• Ship products in a safe, timely, and effective manner
• Upload tracking information into Seller Manager in a reasonable amount of time
• Maintain complete and accurate contact information

Inventory

Integration Tool for your inventory. You can upload inventory directly or you can contact stootsi to guide you on the process of using their integration tools. Your inventory will appear in your store,  stootsi store front as well as shopping engines such as Google and Yahoo Search Engines.

With minimal fees, SEO and user friendly stootsi can be the just the right place for you to start selling online.  Stootsi is fairly new and welcomes all suggestions. Created by a seller for the sellers. The creator of stootsi understands the expectations and challenges online sellers face. Stootsi was created to offer you an Open Fixed Price Marketplace. Check it out and do not hesitate to let stootsi know what you think or suggestions you may have. I know that I will be opening a Store Front there and I will provide you with details soon.

What type of marketplace would you like to see? Do you want more auction sites or fixed price sites? Do you want the flexibility to accept payments?
