eBay is the undisputed king of online auctions, offering many benefits to those looking to sell products over the internet. But eBay also has its drawbacks and limitations, leading some entrepreneurs to wonder if there are viable auction alternatives. The internet team at PMI Education answers “Yes! There are alternatives to eBay,” and has put together this list:

Bidtopia.com: Known for its seller-friendliness, Bidtopia allows you to include a ton of information in your auction details, such as your phone number and links to your online store and other auctions. With Bidtopia you can’t set a reserve price and all auctions begin at ninety-nine cents. There are no listing fees, though they take 4.75% of the final sales price and a nominal fee for items that don’t sell at auction. Update: Bidtopia appears to be offline, no other information is available at this time , update 6/13/11

Bidz.com: This auction site specializes in closeout deals in very large lots. Bidz.com doesn’t use reserves and great prices are common. They are particularly buyer-friendly, with a satisfaction guarantee which offers a full refund.

eBid.net: With over two million auctions, eBid is closing the gap between eBay and “everybody else.” Opening a store is free and you can import your positive feedback from eBay. They allow you to set a reserve price, which is beneficial for many sellers.

eCRATER.com: Another great site that’s easy to use, eCRATER is a popular choice among sellers. With more buyer traffic than eBid, it offers great opportunities to entrepreneurs. There are no listing fees and no sold fees.

ePier.com: This is a great option for niche sellers with unique products. It’s free to set up a store, so you have nothing to lose. There are fees for optional things such as featuring your item or adding a reserve price.

uBid.com: Like Bidz.com, this service is very buyer-friendly and offers satisfaction guarantees. They feature an impressive selection and have a professional interface. uBid offers advanced tracking tools, making it easy to monitor multiple auctions.
