C2C eCommerce? It Is More Likely Than You Think: Part 1

When we think of eCommerce, the first thing that comes up in our mind would be eCommerce giants like Shopee, Amazon, or Lazada. An eCommerce where it is mostly seller to the customer or B2C because hello, a seller has the stock of products and the customer is buying the products. But what if we told you it is not only possible but also there is an entire dedicated site for a C2C eCommerce? 

But why should I try a C2C eCommerce?

Well, this model of eCommerce allows for bigger profits for the sellers and the buyers. Sellers can store the inventory in their house or garage. Hence, this leads to a lower selling price. C2C businesses involve the sale of both new and used goods with the involvement of a few middle parties (namely the eCommerce site). Technological advances and the increasing ease in the availability of the internet have made C2C eCommerce a lucrative business.

So what are some of the examples of C2C eCommerce sites? Let's get started.
