Nothing of value should be lost

Let’s start off with stating that everything has value. For brand new products (and services), traditional e-commerce companies set a given price to reflect that value. However, value can be determined in various ways, especially when you add the variable of usage to the mix. Valuation of used products, or new products that sell for a second time, is a whole different ball game. This is what we are specialized in. We believe that auctioning is the perfect method for value transferring, as the market transparently sets the price for all goods that trade over our platforms. It brings together buyers and sellers and shows real time market value. Using data and a smart auctioning system, we match supply and demand to shape auctioning to the world of today. This is what we call Intelligent Auctioning. In a world where overconsumption is a threat, we find it important to extend the life of every product as long as possible. This is why we auction millions of products every year!

What we believe is important

There is a number of topics that drive us to work harder every day. Sustainability is one of those topics that is currently widely discussed. With our vision “nothing of value should be lost’ we truly strive to make a positive impact on our planet. The idea of using products until the very end of their lifetime is important to us.

Besides expanding products’ lives, we aim to find the optimal price by bringing together supply and demand using Intelligent Auctioning. Our task is to determine the right moment to publish our products in order to reach the right demand peaks. We aim to use data and technology to yield the right value.

We emphasize on our buyers to have a seamless customer journey. From searching for a specific product, having the highest bid, to receiving the product, our customer journey needs to be sublime. These are a few of the topics that make TBAuctions so diverse and motivating to be a part of.

How did it all start?
