MSNBC.com has announced the launch of an MSNBC online auction site through a partnership with FairMarket, Inc.
FairMarket’s solution enables MSNBC.com to provide a distributed selling approach for businesses and consumers looking to sell merchandise through an auction format. Providing e-commerce solutions customized to fit the needs of retailers, manufacturers and businesses, Auctions@MSNBC features merchandise from a variety of categories.
Auctions@MSNBC incorporates FairMarket’s technology to allow users to buy and sell merchandise through listings on MSNBC.com, and significantly expands e-commerce offerings on MSNBC.com.
The new site is part of the FairMarket Network, a consortium of websites that includes some of the world’s leading portals and vendors.
“As an established leader in the news and information category, we must continue to grow and provide our users with additional resources as they visit our site,” says John Nicol, general manager of MSNBC.com
