Excess Management
Lot Buy: For the customers who would like to sell their entire excess inventory at once and remove the product from their books, warehouse etc. Consignment inventory: Customers can send us a list of the product that they like to remove from their inventory. We would then market the product worldwide through our vast network of customers and Internet-based sites. We presently have hundreds of customers in our database and we will market the product to this extensive list of customers. This is a slower approach than the first solution; however, in some cases, it may yield a better return for customers. Line buy: In this option, customers can send us a number of items that they like to remove from their inventory. We would then bid on each line item separately. Customer in-house-consignment: In this solution, customers can keep the inventory in their warehouse and we would market the product as we would in option number two above.
