1. The basic idea of Snappy Auctions is to provide for customers an online platform for the sale of any goods from eBay. Snappy Auctions acts only as an intermediary in the contract of sale between the seller and buyer on eBay. Payment of goods and shipment takes place without the participation of the buyer as it is to take place on eBay. For the use of the platform customers pay a fee, usually made up of the percentage of the sale price. Since the profit of Snappy Auctions is directly dependent on the volume of sales, committed to this platform, on it are fairly liberal conditions.
The current business strategy implies increasing of profits by increasing the number of international sales. Snappy Auctions is currently working in more than 20 countries, including China and India. The reasons for the effectiveness of the business model is the absence of geographical barriers because customers can participate in the bidding on eBay from anywhere in the world, enough to have access to the Internet. So it increases the number of buyers / bets in Snappy Auctions.
2. Surely eBay new policy will affect the volume of orders in the Snappy Auctions, but still it does not affect the main advantages of Snappy Auctions models because the main customers of the company do not want to trade on eBay. These changes do not affect the main customer segment because still people choose intermediaries, if they want to buy a product without the complexity of registration and warranty. Snappy Auctions will receive the goods in their office, check it on the performance, and in the case of fraud on the part of the seller, return the product and require a refund. The company prepares the goods for shipment to another country, settle all customs and legal issues (if any), and delivers the goods. Online brokers often engaged in a specific occupation, which is in the "in-line" treatment of a large number of standard operations. The international business situation, not uncommon for the successful resolution of which require specific knowledge. Examples of this type may be associated with international administrative barriers and business practices of doing business abroad.
Snappy Auctions make purchases of goods at the moment when the goods will be needed immediately for the customer will pick up beneficial seller. Snappy Auctions provide increased liquidity, for example, the ability to quickly obtain the necessary goods sold due to the logistics intermediaries. This proves that the final effect of the use of intermediaries is much higher than selling only means. Especially large role played by Snappy Auctions on sale abroad of consumer goods, because in this case the proximity to customers and mobility in adapting to the changing needs of acquiring the greatest importance.
3. I believe that Snappy Auctions is a profitable project for the economy because the intermediary company within the international business actively using the latest methods and technologies are constantly improving their activities. The necessary basis for their successful operation is the constant optimization of operations, improving customer service, reducing the cost of services. Currently Snappy Auctions equipped with the most sophisticated means of communication, advanced information and management systems. Snappy Auctions of objective necessity should strive to become the most advanced and innovative companies in the global economy, which means that after developing their own development intermediaries and their clients, in particular, and the world economy as a whole.
