Revolutionizing Auctions: Catawiki’s Buy Now Option Provides Instant Purchasing Option for Customers in France and Beyond

Catawiki has recently expanded its reach by introducing a new way for customers to purchase items on its auction site. The platform, which has sold over 2.5 million special items since its inception in 2008, traditionally catered to collectors of various vintage and rare items. However, it now aims to attract a wider audience, particularly in countries like France where it has a large customer base.

Previously, customers on Catawiki would participate in auctions for items they were interested in, but some would not follow through with the bidding process and end up missing out on the item they wanted. To address this issue, Catawiki has introduced a new “Buy now” option that allows sellers to set a price at which their item can be purchased before the end of the auction. This option provides customers with an instant purchase option without having to bid in an auction.

The “Buy now” feature has been available on the site for over a year and a half but is now being more widely promoted. Over 10,000 items have been sold through this feature, reducing the average sales time from 7 days to just 3.5 days. Customers can now buy their desired items quickly and easily without missing out on them due to delays or unexpected circumstances during the bidding process.

Overall, Catawiki’s decision to introduce the “Buy now” option reflects their commitment to improving customer experience on their platform and making it easier for customers to purchase the items they desire. With this new feature, customers can make purchases instantly while still having access to all of Catawiki’s extensive collection of rare and vintage items.
