If paying listing fees is no longer on your “to do” list, then check out WeBidz.com online auction site as it may just be what you are looking for in terms of a home for your art marketing master plan.

Here you will find a service that’s easy to use and has considerable search options. To broaden your reach, WeBidz has a neat feature that allows you to easily import auctions and even feedback from other sites through their Auction Manager. There is even an inventory control built in which is a nice option to have especially if you are selling a number of items. Even membership is “no charge”. Free is good! Having said that, there is a registration fee of $5 should you wish to become a verified art seller but it is not necessary to be able to sell on this site.

Upgrading to use more features costs a bit but sometimes it is more than worth it. Front Page listings and being featured on the category you choose gives great exposure for just a few dollars. Well worth considering especially when there are about 82,000 auctions happening at any one time servicing more than 25,000 registered users.

Designing your sales pitch has a lot of features and options to consider. You might choose to have a subtitle for artwork you sell or even a page counter. Pick a font add colour, images, copy, and you end up with a fully customized detail page. With a bit of practice and some skill, you become your own art advertising agency. That’s also good.

Online shopping is a breeze and one of the premier features of WeBidz. Find what you are looking for by category use a keyword to search, another user, bidder or store. If that’s not enough to lead you to that elusive bargain, try inputting the brand name. A few clicks and you can be in shopper’s paradise.

Along with the standard features of being able to watch the bid progress on your chosen item, and registering feedback, there is a “Craig’s List” type of want ad’s.  If you are unable to find what you are looking for, you can post a description of the item and if a seller has it they can contact you to arrange a sale. The previously mentioned feedback system is used to ensure sellers and buyers are dependable, reliable and honest.

WeBidz has a pretty good online help component. A bit tricky to navigate but never the less it does the job. FAQ’s have short answers to most questions and if that doesn’t do it for you, then there is always email.

There is a lot happening on WeBidz with many worthwhile features making your selling and buying process fun and relatively easy to do.  The Auction Manager software adds to that experience as does some of the articles in the online help section. Probably the most beneficial feature is the search and find function that can quickly take you to the items you are looking for.

Although not the biggest of players on the online auction scene you cant ignore the 80,000 plus auctions happening at any one time or the 25,000 registered users.
