Australian community Oztion the Aussie battlers

Website Review by: cruzey    


With great perserverance, faith, and commitment; admin, the sellers,
and
buyers have continued to support this
great Australian auction site
Oztion which only opened in January 2005. As the second largest auction
site in
Australia, Oztion has grown to over 20,000 members and new users are
signing up daily.
Predictable thoughts of many were that this site will never succeed and
will go the way of the dodo and other new
auction sites that dissappeared before they even really got started.
This has been proved wrong by Oztion's ever growing and highly active
member base.
Determination was the key to success that the friendly community
brought to oztion. Admin is doing all the behind the scenes work while
many sellers and buyers are promoting it by using the 'referal
program', advertising on their websites, sending out flyers, and many
other means.
The biggest success for Oztion was the TV presentation from the
sellers perspective that aired on A Current Affair Brisbane Extra in
Queensland . There was
also the charity auctions held on Oztion for Hope Cottage
(www.hopecottage.org.au). The cute Valentines icon sent many hearts
aflutter and the idea behind it got people talking. The low fees and
free listings also attract many sellers to the site.
Striving for
success theres finally been a sigh of relief with more buyers snapping
up the many available bargains. Oztion is not taking on the world but
has its success aimed only in Australia. Entering its second year,
Oztion is growing stronger within the community. Lets hope to see you

    Don't Loose All Your Profits Too Over Rated Fee's.

    www.oztion.com.au Has to be the most user friendly site around. Admin are fantastic there for us 24/7 with help or advise.No question will go unanswered not like another site i won't mention!! AND FEE'S YOU MAY ASK ? THE ONLY FEE'S THERE ARE IS WHEN YOU SELL YOUR ITEMS. AND THEY ARE SOOOO LOOOOW. So check out this site today and stop paying listing fee's etc when they are unnecessary. Support an Australian Site. And thank you CRUZEY a great article you have written. Thank you Elaine {fitzy }

    Wonderfully low fees!!

    I sold a book fo $15 dollars on Oztion and only paid a 45cent fee. That was impressive in comparison to other auction sites I've used that would have charged me over $3 for the same thing. I can keep my prices low because I don't have to be wary of fees that sting. As for shopping there, it's mind blowing!!

    Oztion

    Come to Oztion from one who has been there. Ebay charge like wounded bulls. Friendly atmosphere, and helpful people make oztion a great site to be. Better than the other option. Oztion has very little in the way of fees, free automatic re-list and alot of other options the others don't have. Come to Oztion, and be part of a fast growing, friendly family.

    OZtion is 4 Kinda Kids

    OZtion SUX

    Aussie Battlers, yes they are. Just go read the forums. Battles on with just about everyone of them. Kindagarten kids have more of a brain than most of Oztion members. All foul mouthed and itching for a bitching session. Not to mention the buyers of late losing hundreds of dollars to fraudulent Sellers. There is no safety net on Oztion and noone cares. Admin does nothing about it. Sorry, he de-registers them but nothing else. Lot of good that does, they can and have re-registered again under another name to rip sellers off again. Oztion will and is going the same as Ebay. OZtion & Ebay SUX

    Leave 'aussie battlers' out

    No problems with your description of OZtion, but would prefer not to have the term 'aussie Battlers'.

    Don't Deal from Oztion or Ebay

    Please go read the Forums first. You will see for your selves, that Ebay's leftovers are taking over Oztion. Go visit Eroo or Lot123.com.au, and there you will find some of Oztions outcasts, who think they own the place.
