The biggest difference between seller-managed and MaxSold-managed is whether or not the seller is handling the cataloging and pickup process themselves. For seller managed auctions, the seller catalogs and photographs the items with our cataloging app, and hosts the final pickup with the provided winners list after the auction closes. If you would like us to handle the entire process, it is called a MaxSold managed sale. In both cases, MaxSold helps you with the hosting of the online auction, marketing, and collection of payment.
