Celebrating 5 years of providing great deals on Xbox 360, PS3, Wii consoles & more

Nov. 20, 2008 - PRLog -- Auctions4aCause.com, one of the biggest and oldest “highest unique bid” online auction sites announced today that it is celebrating it’s 5th year anniversary this month.

CEO Joe Haver commented: “When we started this business in November of 2003, we knew our business model was going to be a success as everyone likes to support charities and when they can buy popular electronics for great savings at the same time, it is a win-win situation for all.”

Over the five years in business, Auctions4aCause.com grew to more than 100,000 members who helped donate tens of thousands of dollars to a variety of charities like the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (ASPCA) and the March of Dimes. See http://www.auctions4acause.com for a list of the currently supported charities.

Unique bid auctions are different from the usual auction sites you hear about, in that consumers can't sell their products here. There are only a limited number of auctions showing at any time, and the products are all brand new, name brand items, still in the original, sealed box, offered for 80-90% below retail.  

Via a reverse blind auction process US & Canadian residents can bid on these items.  Only a certain number of bids are accepted for each auction before it is closed and the highest unique bidder gets to purchase the item for their bid amount.  This bid can never be higher than the listed “Get4” maximum bid price, which is under US$10 for many popular items like iPods, digital cameras, laptops, Playstations, Wii systems, Xbox 360s and much more.

In addition, Auctions4aCause.com has always paid at least 25% of the net proceeds to charities selected by the bidders.  The proceeds come from a nominal bid fee charged for each bid placed.  See http://www.auctions4acause.com for the current list of products on auction.
