Yoobos.com is a new global online marketplace launches by Online ‘eclectic’ trading company, Jinco Ltd. The site offers net traders who are serious about selling online a real eBay alternative. You pay only for the store rental and they charge no commission on sold items. The fees are based upon the number of items you have in your store.

Aimed at wholesale traders, small retail businesses and people just wanting to sell items from home, Yoobos stores cost from £3.75 up to £10, on which up to 30 miscellaneous items can be sold at once. If an item isn’t selling, it can be switched by the trader at no extra charge during the rental period.

For example, if you have 5 items to sell it will cost £3.75 (for a Standard store).  If you have 26 items to sell it will cost £10.00 (for a Standard store).  If you have more than 30 items to sell you will need to create multiple stores.

Please note: You are able to swap out items for new items free of charge.

For a small additional charge (£5.00), sellers can choose the enhanced store option to make their store look like their own e-commerce site. Enhanced store owners get their own URL (e.g. www.yoobos.com/yourstore/) which they can use to promote their store.

Here’s a great facility that are not often seen in other auction sites - the swap out facility. If an item isn’t selling or you just want to refresh the look of your store, at Yoobos, you can swap out both sold and unsold items COMPLETELY FREE OF CHARGE for the duration of your store rental. So the wise sellers amongst you will realize that this along with the ’sell more for the same price’ feature means you can have a store refreshing and restocked as much as you want for the same one off price.

Various goods you usually see on eBay are being trade on the site, for example antiques, art, musical instruments, consumer electronics, collectibles, books, magazines, toys and games.

Ian Harvey, director, comments: "We are offering an affordable way of buying and selling online which gives small businesses and the general public a commission free choice. We’re not just another eBay clone, our fresh approach to listing charges sets us apart from the rest."
