Parcel2Go Highlights The Importance Of Offering A Variety Of Shipping Options On eBay

One of the UK’s leading online parcel delivery services has stressed how important it is for UK businesses to make sure they are appealing to as wide a group of online consumers on eBay as possible.

Bolton-based Parcel2Go made the call following an interview given to the Daily Telegraph by the online auction and retail giant’s president of global marketplaces this week. Devin Wenig told the newspaper the UK had now become eBay’s fastest-growing marketplace, highlighting the fact that the British site receives visits from 17 million unique users every month, with sellers listing 40 million products.

Parcel2Go marketing director Richard Mercer said the news highlights just how important it is for businesses using eBay to ensure that they are doing everything possible to attract customers.

He said: “The popularity of eBay is something that all businesses should be looking to take advantage of. E-commerce is continuing to grow at a staggering pace and companies should be trying to maximise their exposure to potential customers.

“On eBay, one way of doing this is by offering a wide range of shipping options to customers as this will ensure that listings appeal to as wide a range of people as possible. For example, by offering international shipping options through international courier firms you are going to suddenly make your products available to a whole swathe of new customers.”

In his interview, Mr Wenig also highlighted the increasing role that mobile is playing, describing its growth as “exponential”. He said one item per second is now purchased through a mobile device.

“Smartphone usage is spreading rapidly and as more consumers get access to sites such as eBay while they’re on the move, sales will naturally increase. We want as many businesses as possible to benefit from this opportunity,” added Richard.

0800 REPAIR Available For Fast Fridge Repairs

Expert appliance repair group 0800 REPAIR has urged customers to invest in fridge repairs rather than buying new appliances following breakdowns.

The appliance repair company can provide customers throughout the country with speedy fridge repairs and the company prides itself on putting the customer first, to ensure each and every fridge repair is carried out to the company’s high standards.

0800 REPAIR employs qualified engineers in all areas of the UK, so every region is covered. The company can repair a number of fridge makes and models as well, from Beko to Whirlpool fridges and everything in between.

The company promises that repairs will be carried out as quickly as possible, so any repairs that can be carried out in the first consultation will be done there and then. If further repairs are required or the job requires additional investigation to ascertain the problem, an engineer can re-visit the customer with the appropriate tools or spare parts.

Paul Feek, Managing Director of 0800 REPAIR said: “When your fridge breaks down, the first thing on your mind is how you’re going to stop all of your food from spoiling, and at 0800 REPAIR we understand how big an issue this can be.

“You could end up wasting a fair amount of money in spoiled food if your fridge is out of action for any length of time, but rushing out and buying a new fridge will undoubtedly cost more than the average family can afford. That’s why we offer reasonably-priced fridge repairs that can be carried out quickly and efficiently.”

0800 REPAIR works to a strict code of conduct, so customers can expect engineers to be dispatched on time and to call ahead if there are any delays expected. They will also inform the customer of any and all repairs that need to be carried out, and they have full insurance to allow them to work within a customer’s home.

Apart from fridge repairs, 0800 REPAIR also offers freezer repairs, washing machine repairs, cooker repairs and even vacuum cleaner repairs. To find out more about the company’s repairs service, check the official website now.
