www.thespecialistauctioneer.com has amongst the lowest fees out there. But you can list absolutely free... How? Simply list 10 items for sale on this site, or buy just one item here, and you can list free of all charges, forever. But there is a time limit - you have to list the 10 or buy one before midnight on 31 December (2009).
To good to be true? No, I just want to boost the visibility of the site - and I reckon that if you are listing, or can find a bargain here, you will tell your family and friends, or post in on your website, blog, twitter or Facebook page.
Remember if you list early, your item may be one of the first to sell.
I would like to offer a warm welcome to members of World Bookmarket (www.worldbookmarket.com) some of whom already list here, and some of whom are visiting for the first time.
World Book Market (WBM) is an international co-operative of booksellers who believe quality of books and quality of service far outweigh quantity of listings. Collectively, they offer one of the world's best and safest book-buying sites.
As well as administering this auction site, I list my own books on a number of others - indeed I started The Specialist Auctioneer because of the frustrations of listing on the big sites. WBM offers a refreshing alternative to these, as well as excellent support and listing tools.
Of course, I would like to welcome any other visitors to this site. I have tried to make it as user friendly as possible, and to offer good value for money (the only fee is a 4% commission when an item sells, so the amount of money is small). Please don't hesitate to send me any feedback or wishes for the site.

An upload program that takes information from eBay Turbolister listings, or Homebase 2.3 listings is now available. Turbolister items can be sent via the uploader for immediate listing at the specialist engineer (though if the items have been downloaded from eBay onto Turbolister these often include some extra scripting that needs to be removed - an easy process). The fonts are format of the auction are unchanged.
Homebase items need conversion - since the raw data is unformatted. If users have Microsoft Excel and now how to use it, this is quite a swift process and a spreadsheet is available. For those unsure if they can do this themselves, The Specialist Auctioneer is pleased to offer free conversion and formatting of Homebase data so that it can be quickly edited in the uploader for easy listing. An email offering these to all registered members was sent Thursday, May 21.
This site is optimized for google and other search engines. But there can be a delay between search engines receiving and displaying info.
In this period, the book or collectible might have sold. BUT before you go, put the name in to the SEARCH box at the top left - it might have been relisted.
