iSold It is proud to be the #1 sales volume leader on eBay. By tapping into the tremendous pipeline of unwanted items that virtually every household or business has stored away, we have built a nationwide network of convenient neighborhood drop-off stores that make it easy for anyone to sell their items online. Our customers provide the merchandise, and our stores provide the photography, listing, packing & shipping. We do the work and they get a check. Of course, our customers think this is a great service. We see it as a huge opportunity.

Today, with hundreds of franchise stores open or in development, iSold It is the #1 drop-off store chain and one of the fastest growing franchises in the country. And we've really just begun. We're planning to grow to 1,000 stores in all 50 states, with additional services like corporate account programs and new e-commerce programs planned for the future. When you are awarded an iSold It franchise, you join an exciting, fast growing company that has led the explosive drop-off category growth from the beginning.

Possibly the Biggest Franchise Opportunity in 20 Years

When we opened our first iSold It store in Pasadena, we knew that we had created something special. But what followed was truly amazing. CNN started with a news feature on iSold It. Then USA Today followed with a cover story in their Money section. And, in short order, hundreds of articles and news stories featured iSold It as the new ‘darling' of the eBay world. Clearly, we had created something beyond special -- we had created a whole new industry. Today, with hundreds of franchise stores open or in development, iSold It has quickly become America 's Favorite Drop-off Store.

How iSold It Works

We're an original franchise concept that offers customers an easy and effortless way to sell their items online. This unique approach to online retailing gives customers a “clicks & mortar” store where they can drop off merchandise that they would like to liquidate online. Customers simply stop by a store to drop off items they want to sell, and iSold It takes care of the rest.

Each full-service iSold It store provides the following services:

• Professionally photographs each item
• Posts the item for sale online
• Holds the item in inventory
• Answers buyer questions
• Packs and ships the item
