Cash Converters online with Aucor.com

In a pioneering move, Aucor.com and Cash Converters have teamed up to sell second-hand household goods on the Aucor.com auction site.

Aucor.com, the leading online auction house, now features Cash Converters, South Africa's fastest growing retail chain specialising in the sale of second-hand goods, as an exclusive preferred tenant on the site. Cash Converters is the first second-hand store franchise to market online.

Initially five Cash Converters stores have made their goods available on Aucor.com. It is anticipated that by the end of the year, the balance of Cash Converters' nationwide stores will be featured on the website with each store supplying appropriate stock. Users will thereby have access to a significantly increased number of online items priced well below retail.

Comments Richard Mukheibir, Managing Director of Cash Converters, "We saw an opportunity to make our products more accessible to the public. Users of the site just click into the Cash Converters auction mart, and in a matter of seconds they are bidding on Cash Converters' goods that would typically be found in a store. Cash Converters has recently repositioned itself, and this relationship with Aucor.com is testament that we are moving with the times. Who knows, maybe the users will be shopping online with a pre-owned computer they have purchased in one of our stores!"

"Cash Converters is a high profile client that we are extremely proud to have on board and have situated them on prime website property. All merchandise is pre-owned and of the highest quality complete with a 90-day warranty," says Shannon Winterstein, Director, Aucor.
