Can i participate in auction as a SELLER ?
09/27/2017 19:18:38
I have only accessed this space for a very limited time.

I am still uncertain about HOW TO post items / stamps in this type
of [ limited time ] auctions.

Can you please guide me ?
Would be great if you have something by way of a "manual" / tutorial.

    At the top of each listing page, where it says 'Listing Type.' there is a drop-down menu (the default says 'Store Item'). Click the arrow and it will show you the choice for 'Auction.'

    OK George, That is as an individual setting up a personal auction! but...
    How does one get to participate in these 'no reserve' set-piece auctions that are run monthly?
    Are these by invitation to the big dealers only?

    Dunno...
    Maybe someone from administration could chime in on those.

    "How does one get to participate in these 'no reserve' set-piece auctions that are run monthly?"

    They're actually run weekly! (unless you're talking about something other than the 1¢ or Premium Stamp auctions that are always at the top of the HipStamp home page)

    Just use the 'HELP' tab at the bottom of any page and ask your question.

    I do believe that inclusion in the special auctions/sales that are emailed out to everyone requires subscription to an upper tier store. One of the benefits of the higher fee.

    Also, I do not believe you can sell on this site unless you have a store subscription (any tier).

    ??

    What is this you are referring to, Michael? I thought he was asking about the weekly auctions that are at the top of the HipStamp home page all the time.

    Just to clarify, I was talking about the auctions that are at the top of the Hipstamp homepage and sorry if I confused with the 'monthly' reference! I was wrong on that - they are run weekly.

    Then disregard what I stated. I got confused as well.

    Hello,

    Our Thursday night penny auction event is certainly one of our main events each week. These events help drive significant sales for participating sellers and we are always looking to expand our weekly auction events.

    If anyone is interested in participating in our Thursday night Penny Auction event, please contact justin@hipstamp.com and I'll be happy to discuss this option with you.

    Sanjeev- we are currently discussing this option.
    John- I will reach out directly.

    Hope everyone is well!
    Justin

    Hey Justin, Thanks for letting us in on the act - so to speak! I'm not ready just now to take part - have not got enough stamps up yet! Was just interested in knowing how these auctions were set up and run.
    Thanks for the info. John
