Simpo.be, the Belgian penny auction website, announced today the opening of their online shop to complete their bidding environment and start offering risk free bids for their members. Simpo.be offers the possibility for users to buy the same products as the ones put up for auctions for a discount price.
“Up to now, our users were buying credits, bidding on specific items, and only the highest bidder had the opportunity to buy the item for an average of 65% cheaper than its’ retail price” says Andres Seeman, the head of Simpo.be operations, “and other users who had lost the auction also lost their used credits – end of story.”
Simpo.be’s online shop gives users a safe way to bid during auctions. Users can chose to bid for the item or can buy it immediately. Even if users bid and aren’t the highest bidder, they have the opportunity to buy the product for a discount price thanks to the credits already used.
With every bid placed, a user receives 0,20€ discount on the specific product. The discount is displayed next to the retail price of the item on the item’s description page. The discount differs for every users depending on the amount of bids placed during the auction. If a user decides to stop bidding, he/she can just press the “Buy now” button and buy the item. All items are delivered within 21 days, but usually users receive them within 4-5 days maximum.
“We want to give more to our users. Users were concerned; they do not want to lose their money. The online shop gives our users a win-win situation – you can have fun bidding and no matter what, get great discounts on the prices” continues Andres Seeman.
All Simpo.be auctions start at 0,99 euros and each bid only increases the price by 1 euro cent. Users can buy a Blackberry Storm for only 13,39 euros or a Compaq Presario Laptop for a mere 34,38 euros. The credits needed to bid can be bought by credit card, Bancontact Mister Cash (which regroups all the major banks in Belgium) and by SMS payments offering a variety of payment options for Simpo users.
Simpo.be is available in French for the french speaking part of Belgium (enchérir) and in Dutch (veilingen) for Dutch speaking customers
