Video Game Auctions loves gamers
New auction portal launches online and wants to be your friend
10/06/05 – A brand-new gaming auction portal debuted online this week and promises to revolutionise the sale of videogames and related items online, thanks to a new comprehensive, yet easy-to-use listings system.
Gaming site – www.videogameauctions.co.uk (VGA) promises to offer a viable online trading alternative to gamers around the world who are sick of wading through dozens of “ultra-rare” copies of Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas and those who have the misfortune of buying a so-called “mint” copy of Final Fantasy VII, that turned-up resembling something run over by a Ford Cortina.
The vast range of over 350 categories at videogameauctions.co.uk will give gamers the chance to sell absolutely anything related to gaming, from retro games consoles to full-size coin-ops, PC hardware and the very latest import PSP titles.
Designed with gamers in mind, videogameauctions.co.uk will offer a range of improvements to gaming item listings you just won’t find elsewhere. Sellers will be able to state whether their item still has original extras like inserts and spine cards aswell as the usual Game Region and Condition options etc. The website also promises to offer competitive prices for listings, with special rates offered to independent videogame retailers and distribution companies.
VGA are proud to unveil new listing features not currently found at online gaming auctions, a Wanted section as well as an exciting new Swap feature have been included in the site to give gamers a better choice and let them decide exactly how they want to trade.
Whilst VGA is the new kid on the block, the site hopes to make friends in the industry fast, as the auction is the brainchild of videogames veteran, Steve Lucas. The new auction portal joins his successful, long-established website and Hampshire based retailer, www.next-gen.co.uk . Together with domestic and retro games, the website and shop supplies import videogames, niche technology and home entertainment products to customers across the UK, Europe and the rest of the World. Next Gen together with their own mix of gaming and home entertainment forums have attracted over 7 million hits on the last six months.
On the launch of his new business, Steve Lucas said:
“I knew the time was right to launch videogameauctions.co.uk, I was increasingly hearing from disgruntled customers and friends who felt that other auction sites were no longer looking after their specialist needs. We’ve designed our site with gamers in mind and as keen gamers ourselves we have players’ interests at heart. VGA is directed 100% at the gaming community, this will ensure that sellers auctions receive maximum coverage from an audience that is interested in their products, not someone looking for a five year old car or a fifty year old Teddy Bear.
Aside from our comprehensive listings and competitive price structure, videogameauctions.co.uk will offer gamers an exciting and viable new alternative.”
