Bring the items you would like to sell to us.

Our Customer Service Agents, who are experienced with eBay, will conduct quick online research to help estimate and evaluate the value of your items.

During this check-in process, our Customer Service Agent will work with you to include any vital information that you would like to include in your eBay auctions. After this check-in process, we place the items in our inventory and give you an invoice. Our experienced Photographers and Auctioneers will create your auctions with professional photographs and descriptions.

* We can also arrange for a Local Pick Up for large quantities of items. (These services require a fee. Please see our fees for more information.)

It's as easy as:

• Get Instructions
• View Your Auction! Once we've listed your items on eBay, MikesAuctions.com will send you an email with a link to your auctions. You can view your items for duration of the auctions, watching the bidding action as it occurs.
• Many of our sellers tell us this part is as fun as getting their final check!
• Collect Your Check! After your item sells, we collect payment, then package and ship your item to the winning bidder. Once the transaction is complete, we mail you a check.
• Or upon request, we can send the proceeds to your favorite charity.
