No More Collecting Dust: LiveDeal.com Lets Consumers De-Clutter Post-Holiday By Selling Past Years' Big Gifts Locally

PALO ALTO, Calif., Dec. 7 /PRNewswire/ -- Now that you've received that new flat panel TV, computer or elliptical trainer you wanted for the holidays, what do you do with your old TV, PC or exercise machine? Instead of letting them collect dust in the basement because they're too impractical to sell on eBay, many consumers will be recouping holiday expenses by selling previous years' gifts locally through a new online service called LiveDeal.

LiveDeal is a new, no-fee option for consumers who have the urge to purge or bargain hunt after the holidays, but have been reluctant to buy and sell online or through classifieds because of high listing fees, shipping costs or fear of fraud.

The benefit of LiveDeal is that it lets you buy and sell as many items as you wish for free -- a virtual garage sale -- and all in your local area so you don't have to worry about delivery fees and shipping costs. Additionally, LiveDeal helps prevent fraud, since buyers and sellers meet in person and can exchange payment on the spot.

"After the holidays, our homes are often cluttered with old unwanted items or new, non-returnable gifts that aren't exactly what we wanted," said Rajesh Navar, founder and CEO of LiveDeal. "But buying and selling big-ticket or bulky items is typically a major problem because of the hassle, cost and risk of selling online or through the classifieds. LiveDeal is ideal for de- cluttering because it provides a simple, no-risk, no-cost way to get cash for items that otherwise would be taking up space in your garage or basement. The flipside of that is that buyers can find great bargains on wish-list items Santa or loved-ones may have overlooked."

Whether you live in a major urban area or small rural town, LiveDeal lets you tap into your local market in minutes. You simply log-on and register by providing basic contact information. Sellers can begin listing items for sale with photo and detailed descriptions in just a matter of minutes then sit back and watch the email offers come to them. The process is just as simple for buyers as they can browse or search for items using the site's easy-to-use interface to see what's available locally, first, and nationwide, second.
