Frequently Asked Questions
A. Deebies are eBay Trading Assistants based in Milton Keynes who operate nationwide. Also known as consignment sellers, we sell your old and unwanted items on eBay. We sell for both individual and business clients and have services to suit any and all clientele.
Q.Why use Deebies?
A. Half the trouble with listing on eBay is getting traffic (people looking at your listing). Deebies can get that traffic by using appropriate search terms, optimum titles and professional listings. We take care of everything! Once you have decided on what you want to sell, we take care of everything. You might say that we do all the work, YOU get paid! Visit our why use Deebies page to learn more about what we offer.
Q.Can you collect my items?
A. In a word YES!
We can collect your items for FREE if you're in Milton Keynes. Contact us to obtain a quote for collection outside Milton Keynes.
Q.Can I bring my items to you?
A. Yes you can!
Please contact us to arrange an appointment to drop off your items. We are open from 10AM until 6PM Monday to Friday but can be available to receive your items outside of these hours.
Q.When will I get paid?
A. You can usually look to get paid within 4 - 6 weeks from the day we receive your items. Once we receive your items we hope to have them listed within 7 days (10 at the most). The lisitngs usually run for 7 to 10 days and the winning buyer then has 7 days to pay and a further 7 days to return the item from the day of receipt (known as a "cooling off" period). We will then send you your cheque.
Q.How does this process work?
A. We try to simplify the process into 3 easy steps: 1. Initial Discussion, 2. Detailed Listing, 3. YOU get paid.
1. Initial Discussion
Contact us to discuss your requirements, complete and sign your contract and arrange for us to receive your items.
2. Detailed Listing
We will then get to work researching your items and taking professional photographs. We will choose the optimum title and category to list your items in. We will write detailed descriptions and use the appropriate keywords to boost the chances of sale. We will then answer any potential buyer questions and pack and ship your items to the winning buyers.
3. YOU get paid!
Once your items have successfully sold and the "cooling off" period has elapsed without incident, we will send you your payment less our fees.
Q.How do Deebies work with eBay?
A. We use eBay as our selling platform and in no way do we have an affiliation with eBay other than that as a registered business seller and Trading Assistant. eBay do not own or have any other association with Deebies.
Q.What items sell best?
A. With over 50,000 categories on eBay and around 3 million users worldwide, it's fair to say most items will sell.
We're happy to consider most items for sale and, unlike other Trading Assistants, we have no minimum value. We firmly believe that some profit for you is better than no profit, even if it leaves us out of pocket.
