Ahwooga.com is launching their new online automotive marketplace January 1st that promotes communication between buyers and sellers. The staff at Ahwooga states they are not trying to compete with eBay motors, Craigslist or Amazon Automotive, but feel they have created a new concept.
This concept is based around what they call “Swap meet rules.” “We just want to keep the rules of the site simple, flexible and fun and give people a new venue to increase their sales in a profitable way.”
Sellers are encouraged to provide contact information within their listings to help buyers feel confident about what they are purchasing. Some buyers would prefer to pick up the phone and verify that the item in the listing will work for them. These same principals of having open communication will help prevent fraudulent listing since the scammer will not be able to hide behind a computer knowing his victims are unable to make contact with them. The core staff at Ahwooga has been in the automotive business for a long time and will be able to identify and remove these listings to protect their buyers.
The strong points of the site are:
High visibility of listings through feeds to social medias and other shopping venues
Un-manipulated comprehensive search results
Flexible listing rules for sellers
Free Relisting of unsold auctions and fixed priced listings
Classifieds ads blend within product category searches
Very low cost membership levels to sellers and no final sales fees
It does not cost us any more if you list 50 spark plugs or 50 motor homes, servers don’t know the difference so why charge more?
