There's a new store in Rio Grande, New Jersey that is helping people auction their "treasures" on ebay. It's "Auction It Today".

Spring and Fall is marked by a plethora of yard sales! Everybody has "stuff" that they don't want or need anymore, but that could be useful to someone else. They may even have valuable items, but a yard sale only gives these items exposure to a relatively small number of potential buyers. And, holding a yard sale is a lot of work, pricing and lugging items outside and sitting in the heat all day.

With the advent of the Internet and the ebay auction system, it's now possible to show items for sale to literally millions of people all over the state, nation and the world. Not only that, but people can bid on items, fetching a much better price than you'd ever receive from a yard sale.

Many inventions and businesses have come about because someone saw a need for a product or service. Mike Caminos is one of those entrepreneurs whose research determined a need, and he set out to fill it. "I saw lots of people spending a great deal of time on garage and yard sales, and I also noticed the recent boom in the number of storage facilities," explained Mike. "I thought that there must be a way to assist people in getting cash for their stuff rather than spending it on storage." So, Mike and his partners opened "Auction It Today" in Rio Grande, New Jersey, earlier this year.

The ebay system on the Internet is a great medium for selling items, but not everybody is computer literate, nor do they have the time needed to research how to do it, take photographs and prepare them for uploading, monitor the online auction, handle payment once the item is sold, and package and mail them. So Mike and his team do all the "leg-work" for people who want help selling their treasures!

"A customer can bring in items they'd like to sell, and our trained and experienced staff will research the current ebay market for the specific item and inform the customer what they could expect to get from its auction," said Mike.

The staff at Auction It Today will professionally photograph the item and create a description to attract potential buyers. Once the item sells, the staff will ensure proper payment is received from the buyer and then properly pack and ship it to the recipient.

The range of items that can be turned into cash is limitless at Auction It Today. If you have an item that is too big to move, they will come to your home or business, take pictures, and manage the sale for you on ebay.

Turn some of that attic, basement and garage clutter into cash! You may also be able to get top dollar for those antiques or collectibles.

Auction It Today is located in the ShopRite mall on Route 47 in Rio Grande, New Jersey, adjacent to ShopRite. Call 609-889-8500 or better yet, stop in and discuss your items with the experts at Auction It Today! Their Web site is www.rioauctionittoday.com.
