Direct Club, which is included in Platinum Member Program, is a service provided by SoundBroker.com that allows our Members to buy and sell directly with other participating members, thus eliminating our commission for conducting the entire transaction. This service is designed to save our Buying members a minimum of $150 per transaction on all used items listed as a Direct To Buyer item (highlighted in yellow) on SoundBroker.com that are priced with a total combined value under $1,000.00.
All members upon enrolling in the Platinum Membership Program, have access to our section of SoundBroker.com that shows the special pricing. The Buyer, when clicking on an item's link to either buy or ask questions, a form will appear that will send their information directly to you (the Seller), bypassing SoundBroker.com completely.
Seller Comparison of Direct Club (DC) & Ebay:
From a Seller's point of view, our Direct To Buyer program is 85% less expensive than Ebay, which in turn saves you the buyer money.
A $500 listing with Ebay (Nov 2010) is $40 if it sells and runs either 3, 5, or 7 days nationally, ours is $5.00 and runs internationally and until it sells With DC you can post up to 8 photos, Ebay only 1. With DC you get immediate contact with the Buyer, by either email or phone. With DC you choose the method of payment you prefer, thusly saving more if you do not to use PayPal.
We approve listings all day long (M-F) and permit changes at anytime, if you make a mistake with your pricing on Ebay, once there is a bid, there are only limited changes.
Direct To Buyer Listing Fees (FREE for Platinum Members):
From $0.00 to $299.00 - $2.50
From $300.00 to $499.00 - $5.00
