We are a one stop shop for selling Your quality Items on eBay, Craigslist and Kijiji including appraisals, research, photos, customer service, payment processing, packing & shipping.
We are professionals at selling anything on eBay, Craigslist and Kijiji. We have an established record both online and in our community, and base our business on customer service. We know how to photograph and describe Items to get our Sellers the best possible prices. Buyers on eBay, Craigslist and Kijiji feel more secure buying from a business rather than an individual with only a few feedbacks or not at all. Of course our service goes further than that, visit our Why Us page to find more amazing advantages that our Company can offer.
Although we sell on eBay, Craigslist or Kijiji the marketplaces are different. Craigslist and Kijiji does not have listing fees or templates to choose from, and the listings last between 7 and 45 days. Ads placed on web sites such as Craigslist or Kijiji have fixed prices, so You cannot bid on them. The prices are the ones listed and are usually negotiable. In most cases, the shipping fees are already included in the sale price. That makes our selling policy different.
If the Item You are interested in, it is being sold through our Company services and both parties have agreed with the terms of sale, simply click the Register button on our web site and enter the details requested on the Registration form. If the price entered is different from the original Craigslist or Kijiji sale price (normally after a re-negotiation between both parties), Seller's confirmation is needed before we start the transaction. If the Seller's response is positive, TRANSPORTATION COLLABORATIVE, INC. will send an Invoice with specific transaction information and payment instructions needed to successfully complete the transaction. Upon confirmation, payment will be secured into one of our trust accounts and held there until the transaction is completed. The shipping process will start as soon as the payment is received and confirmed by our Payment Department.
The Item will be delivered within 5 days after payment confirmation. Note that, sometimes it can take up to 3 business days to receive the payment into our bank account. The 7 Day Money Back Guarantee period will commence from the date that the Buyer receives the Item and will allow to return it if dissatisfied with its conditions. If the Buyer is satisfied, we will pay the Seller and keep our Fees. Due to our "No Sale, No Charge" policy, the Seller will not be paid until the end of the transaction. If the Buyer is NOT satisfied with the purchase, a refund can be initiated by using our secure Refund Form. The refund must be requested during the 7 Day Money Back Guarantee period and will be processed in maximum 72 hours.
The Buyer and Seller will be able to verify the transaction status in real time by entering their Transaction ID (#) number into the Check Transaction Status label. For more information about the process itself, check out our How It Works page.
To sell on TRANSPORTATION COLLABORATIVE, INC., You first make an appointment with one of our representatives to set up the terms of sale and to visually inspect what You are selling. To do that, You must first Register as a Seller by using our registration form. You will be contacted by one of our representatives to set up an appointment where our staff can visually inspect what You are selling and set up the rest of the transaction Terms and Conditions. Then You can either place a selling ad, or make an offer on a wanted ad on eBay, Craigslist, Kijiji.
Your selling ad is free until You complete the sale and You can sell multiple Items, to multiple Buyers, from a single ad. When a Buyer makes You an offer, TRANSPORTATION COLLABORATIVE, INC. will send You an e-mail with the details and a link to Your ad. If You like the offer and will accept it then the Buyer will issue You a purchase order (PO). Once You receive the PO, You will know that Your money has been safely collected and verified, and we are free to ship the Item. Once the Buyer receives the Item as agreed, You will be able to collect Your payment directly from Your Bank (minus a small transaction fee).
TRANSPORTATION COLLABORATIVE, INC. is always free for Buyers. Sellers are charged an extra small transaction fee, only if the transaction takes place with a credit card. eChecks are currently free and encouraged ONLY for eBay transactions. Registration is required, but there are no entry fees, membership dues or monthly charges to use the service. Sellers pay no transaction fee for eChecks and a small transaction fee when they complete a sale via credit card, plus our normal commission which depends on what You are selling and for how much. No sale, no charge! Credit card transaction fees are deducted when the funds are transferred to a Bank Account.
Yes, we sell on Kijiji too, but since Kijiji are eBay companies, we refer to it as an "eBay Marketplace".
TRANSPORTATION COLLABORATIVE, INC. and PayPal are both payment services that can be used to pay just about anyone, anywhere online. With PayPal, the Buyer pays the Seller before they receive their purchase, then wait for it to arrive. With TRANSPORTATION COLLABORATIVE, INC., the money is collected and held for the Seller until the Buyer receives the Item. The Seller is getting paid when both parties are satisfied. TRANSPORTATION COLLABORATIVE, INC. protects Buyers and Sellers equally from fraud.
Sure, You can! TRANSPORTATION COLLABORATIVE, INC. is the safest way to buy or sell anything, to anyone, on eBay, Craigslist and Kijiji. However, the procedure is different from selling on Craigslist, Kijiji, since eBay is not a free classified web site. This affects our service fees which are higher for selling on eBay. Also, eBay is far more secure than Craigslist or Kijiji and more payment methods can be accepted by both Buyers and Sellers.
No, TRANSPORTATION COLLABORATIVE, INC. is NOT affiliated with any of these companies in any way, we are just using these marketplaces to sell our Items, just like any other individual Sellers or dealerships. TRANSPORTATION COLLABORATIVE, INC. is not an eBay, Craigslist or Kijiji Company.
Yes, You must Register to use TRANSPORTATION COLLABORATIVE, INC., either as a Buyer or Seller. It's fast, free and user friendly. Don't worry, Your privacy is important to us. We will never share Your registration information unless You start a transaction. In that case, we are obligated to share Your information to the other party because on any Internet transaction, both parties (Buyer and Seller) must be involved.
TRANSPORTATION COLLABORATIVE, INC. ONLY supports Sellers with valid Bank Accounts and Buyers who have the ability to pay using the TRANSPORTATION COLLABORATIVE, INC. system through its payment options. We offer our services ONLY in the United States and Canada but upon request, we accept outside transactions too. In such cases, we ship worldwide but additional shipping charges will be applied and can vary from one to another transaction. If You are outside of those countries, please contact our Customer Support for a shipping quote before registering.
Invoices are usually sent within 1-2 hours from the registration time. If You do not receive the transaction's invoice within the next 2 hours, make sure You check all Your e-mail folders, including spam, bulk or junk e-mail folder as our contact e-mail address is not added into Your e-mail address book, and that could lead in non delivering the transaction's invoice into the e-mail inbox folder. If the transaction's invoice is unreachable, You should contact our Customer Support Team for further assistance.
The Transaction ID (#) number is a unique 10 (ten) digit number assigned to Your transaction which You can use to Check Transaction Status anytime during the process. The Transaction ID (#) number is issued only after the Buyer registers and the transaction starts. The "Check Transaction Status" can be found on the bottom right side of all pages on our web site.
No problem, we offer a 7 Day Money Back Guarantee that allows You to inspect the Item before the Seller is paid. If by any chance the Item received is not as described, damaged/defective or the Item does not comply with the quality, size, physical condition & specifications as per Your original purchase, the Buyer will receive a full Refund processed within 72 hours, and the Item will be returned the same way it was delivered. The Seller is responsible for the additional shipping fees if the Item is returned.
As a Buyer, our 7 Day Money Back Guarantee program gives You the certainty that You will receive the Item You are paying for. With our standard 7 Day Money Back Guarantee program, which is available for all Items sold through TRANSPORTATION COLLABORATIVE, INC., Buyers can be sure that the Item advertised will be received exactly as described in the original ad or by the Seller. When an Item is listed for sale, we compare the original description and pictures with the actual Item. We only allow stock photos of Items that are listed. For more information on how we protect You, please visit our 7 Day Money Back Guarantee section. Our Buyer Protection Program covers eBay, Craigslist and Kijiji transactions up to US $50,000. If a higher insurance is needed, please contact Customer Support to set up a time to evaluate Your Item and set up any additional fees required.
All eBay, Craigslist and Kijiji transactions have a free standard 7 Day Money Back Guarantee We have developed a very simple, cheap and effective way to offer peace of mind needed on Internet transactions. You may wonder how we manage that and it may even sound too good to be true, but it's because TRANSPORTATION COLLABORATIVE, INC. provides 7 Day Money Back Guarantee only for Items sold via eBay, Craigslist or Kijiji that are already stored into Our warehouses. Upon arrival, Items are being verified by TRANSPORTATION COLLABORATIVE, INC. Technical Inspection Team for clear title, quality size, psychical condition (damages, scratches, dents, rust, etc.). The 7 Day Money Back Guarantee gives Buyers confidence they will get the Item they are paying for.
When buying something from web sites like Craigslist or Kijiji, the Buyer relies mostly on the Seller's description, this is what makes the Buyer travel to visually inspect the Item. Surveys show that a very large percent of Items sold on free classifieds web sites such as Craigslist or Kijiji, were not like were originally described by the Seller and after visual inspection, the Buyer decides to look somewhere else.
In order to minimise the chances of failed transactions when it comes to the Items sold through TRANSPORTATION COLLABORATIVE, INC., our staff compares Seller's description with the actual Item which will be into our possession when will be listed. If the listing description is incorrect or does not correspond with our Techincal Inspection Document made upon arrival at the store, the Seller is instructed to re-list the Item with the correct description. That makes us different and let us give Buyers confidence they will get the Item they want. For more information, visit Our 7 Day Money Back Guarante section. If a higher insurance value is needed, please contact Customer Support to set up a time to evaluate Your Item and set up any additional fees required.
Once Your offer is accepted, the next step is to Register on our web site by using the registration form. This will confirm all of the details of Your order and provide us with the necessary shipping and contact information. As soon as the registration details are verified and confirmed with the Seller, we will send an Invoice with the Payment Instructions and Transaction's Details. The Payment must be sent according to the instructions from the Invoice and a document, that will certify the payment has been sent according to Our instructions, has to be provided to our Payment Department for approval. We will collect Your payment and hold it until You receive and accept the Item. That's it! Just say the word and we'll pay the Seller.
You will be notified by e-mail once the Buyer receives and accepts the Item. Just follow the link to the web site and provide us with Your Bank Account Number. We'll automatically deposit the money from Your sale (minus our transaction fee) directly to Your Bank Account.
For eBay transactions, we accept almost any type of payment method because eBay has better security than Craigslist, Kijiji and their payment methods can be easily verified. On Craigslist and Kijiji, we only accept payments via Bank Wire Transfer to one of our Company randomly assigned Business Bank Accounts. This is a fast, cheap and safe method of payment because Your Bank will automatically verify the receiver of the funds (Our Company Bank Account) and Your money can never be lost.
PayPal and Credit Card information can be easily compromised and used by scammers to buy Items online. The "Nigerian Fake Checks Scam" is also well known on Craigslist and Kijiji where scammers are offering to pay for Items with fake checks. In consequence, Buyers are advised that the fastest and safest method of payment is Bank Wire Transfer.
As We are an International Company headquartered in the United States, with offices in the United States and Canada, We reserve the right to ask for payment to be sent to any of the two Company's Business Bank accounts. We offer our services on eBay, Craigslist and Kijiji, which are the largest marketplaces in the world, We can handle only a certain number of transactions per bank account and We often assign bank accounts in the United States, where the number of transactions is not so high. When handling a high volume of transactions in a country, TRANSPORTATION COLLABORATIVE, INC., at its sole discretion, reserves the right to choose a payment method that may conclude the transaction more safely and faster. We know that time is of the essence, especially in transactions such as this, so We are doing everything We can in order to handle all transactions as quickly and securely as possible.
Local pick up or inspections are accepted only prior to having an active transaction in progress. According to TRANSPORTATION COLLABORATIVE, INC.. Terms and Policy for on-line transactions, after a Customer submits a transaction request and his/her transaction is approved, TRANSPORTATION COLLABORATIVE, INC.. Shipping Department automatically starts preparing the Item for shipping (the Company system is automatically programmed to schedule transactions and shipments). As a result, the Shipping Department starts to prepare the paperwork and Your Item is being loaded into a container, along with other Items that have been programmed by the system for shipping at the same time along with Your Item. In consequence, the Item becomes unavailable for inspection.
We usually start the shipping process as soon as the payment is being received and confirmed by our Payment Department. The Item will be delivered within 5 days after payment confirmation. If a specific delivery date is needed, You can specify it at the time of registration, or by contacting our Customer Support.
