Catalogue members of any account type may use auction tools on TROCADERO.
Its as simple as selecting one or more items already
posted to your TROCADERO account and adding any special shipping or sales instructions.
Two options are then presented - one to copy and paste data to the auction listing and
the other to download a file for the purpose of importing data to listing management and bulk loader applications.
We are now providing support to import members' listings to eBay's Turbo Lister.
HTML code for the member's auction listings are included in the file Trocadero produces for use with
third party listing and upload tools. This provides for the member's distinct "look and feel" including
background, logo, picture, optional counter, and links to enlargements
(Trocadero periodically reviews and complies with eBay listing guidelines). Such listings for Enterprise accounts include
thumbnails for each of the enlargement links as well as a link to a personalized "gallery page" for
their auctions. The example on the left shows a typical Enterprise account
listing (other account types have text links to enlargements and no gallery page).
Auction listings from all catalogue members appear together in a community gallery for easy viewing by Trocadero visitors.
The gallery of items being auctioned is
linked to from all TROCADERO category pages for good exposure. Enterprise accounts further enjoy their own auction page (see illustration, lower
left). The page is linked to from the member's catalogue pages and from listed auctions.
To illustrate an item on the auction page, the member
simply creates a link to the auction from their TROCADERO listing.
