Philasearch.com, the online platform launched to support dealers, auctioneers and collectors is providing its unique concept to support societies. The Philasearch.com Society Auction Space, will offer societies the chance to run their auctions from the online platform twice a year for free. The company see this as a wonderful way to connect further with their audience, supporting both the collectors and their societies.
Philasearch.com was launched 23 years ago by three friends Franz Fedra,Walter Christ and Wolfram Eisert they wanted to create a space so that collectors could click and pick from international dealers and auctioneers. Franz himself was a keen collector having worked in the hobby since he was 16 years old. Today Philasearch.com has two sister platforms Numisearch and Antiquesearch as well as millions of collectors worldwide searching & shopping online.
The platform is home to thousands of collectors, who love the easy to use interface, user friendly website and the high quality vast array of items listed. Collectors are able to search and browse without being registered, enabling them to stay anonymous. Once they have found something they might like to purchase or bid on, registration is completely free and the process could not be easier. The Philasearch.com team will also keep you up to date with new listings if you want – a collectors dream.
For societies, Philasearch.com is going to offer the unique opportunity to have an exclusive society area. The societies will be able to host two auctions per year. Societies will also be able to share information about themselves on the platform so a great secondary way to increase awareness. For the trial period, this concept will be open to 2-3 societies. Once on boarding these has taken place, Philasearch.com will look to open it up to others.
Franz Fedra, Founder, Philasearch.com
‘As a collector myself, I understand the importance of societies. Here at Philasearch we want to help & support our community and if we can help societies run more effective fundraising sales then their societies will thrive and grow and the hobby itself will flourish. We have all the technology here to support these societies and so we want to work with a handful of societies to see if they’ll benefit’
About Philasearch
Launched in 1999 by three friends Franz Fedra,Walter Christ and Wolfram Eisert, who brought their IT and love of philately together and decided to create an international internet stage for stamp dealers and auction houses. This was the very first of its kind and quickly became a one stop shop for collectors to ‘Click & Pick’. With demand from their audience the concept grew and the team launched AntiquesSearch.com and NumisSearch.com. Head to www.philasearch.com for more information.
