SYDNEY – Monday 23 March, 2009 – Got old games that you never play anymore, just gathering dust on your shelves? Is there an old console that you just never use anymore hiding somewhere under the bed? Well, there’s never been an easier way to turn your old games and consoles into cash – or ‘new’ games and consoles – with The SOC Exchange.com.au.

Launched mid last year to the US market, The SOC Exchange’s unique ‘buy and sell’ portal is already kicking some serious butt overseas and taking eBay to task in the ‘value add’ stakes. Now, the recently launched Australian version of the site is gearing up to do the same.
It’s sounds almost too good to be true, but The SOC Exchange.com.au gives sellers their own page with unique URL on which they can sell as much stuff as they want (across as many categories as they choose) for just $1 per month or $10 per year, flat rate.
Unlike other online selling sites, there are NO commissions and NO additional charges. The profit stays in your pocket!

“With a market clearly emerging for recycling old games and consoles and turning them into cash, we know any gamer keen to turn some of their trash into cash just can’t look past our site. The ridiculously low prices sellers pay to get their own piece of the net and create their own mini marketplace on The SOCexchange.com.au is something that simply isn’t available anywhere else,” commented The SOC Exchange Founder, Franco Lagudi.
“Why would you pay excessive, ongoing fees and charges for every sale you make when the profit stays in your pocket when you deal on the SOC market,” he added.
The SOC Exchange is fast becoming an ‘all in one’ portal, which offers sellers the capacity to list literally anything and everything – from video games and consoles, scrapbooking and craft materials, real estate, cars, boats, computers, sporting memorabilia, jewellery, jobs and much, much more.
Sellers get their own fully loaded, customisable website – with a unique URL – and have the capacity to add images and even post a blog – all for the set up fee of $10 per year – with no contract period requirements or commissions.
Buyers can register with the site free of charge and are then able to browse the numerous categories, search by product name, search within a set distance from their location, or go directly to a seller’s site. Buyers can also bookmark those sites they want to return to and can register with their favorite sellers for email updates and information on new products.
“We are giving individuals their own piece of the net for an unequalled cost. There are no hidden costs or restrictions on the number of listings on a page – so, the potential for people to create a market in the online space is unlimited.”

“I say to those gamers who want to finance their next purchase by selling some of the games that are just taking up shelf space in their entertainment units – what are you waiting for?” he concluded.
