Sell Simply is a new eCommerce platform aiming to combine some of the best features of sites like eBay, Etsy and Craiglist in the most user-friendly way of all.
On the site, sellers are provided with what is called a “Simple Shop” in which they can list these items that they intend to dispose of.
Shoppers can find these items by executing searches by keyword, price range, tag and location. Moreover, shoppers use their Twitter accounts in order to interact with sellers and find suitable items. In practice, this means that they can “follow” searches and even receive direct messages when an item that matches their search criteria becomes available.
When such a match is found, shoppers can bid in a way not that removed from placing a bid on eBay. The one difference is that on this site they can “follow” these offers that they have made and be alerted when their offer has been accepted, or when they have been outbid through direct messages.
For its part, sellers can accept the offers made by buyers at any time, and transactions are completed using PayPal.
As you can see, the whole platform lives up to its name thanks in no small part to the ability to control everything using a twitter account. This eliminates the tediousness of sending emails back and forth, and the possibility to follow both items and bids just makes it all even suppler.
