DubLi.com —Phase 1 Innovative Layout and Design

DubLi’s designers have been very busy behind the scene for months now preparing to launch the new and innovative DubLi.Com auction portal. This newsletter will provide you with information on some of the features and enhancements. But we highly suggest taking a personal tour so you can experience the robust functionality of our updated site. We feel confident you will be very happy with the new design. It is the first step of many more to come as we get closer to unveiling the new Global Auction Portal scheduled to debut later in 2009.

New Starting Page…Xpress

When visitors first arrive at the newly designed website they will immediately be directed to the Xpress auctions, where they can browse for dozens of quality name brand items. One thing remains though, our starting price is the absolute lowest on the market and from there the price goes down, down, down! We feel our new layout will make it much easier for first time visitors as well as repeat customers to get acquainted with our website. Customers will still have the option to check out what’s going on over at Unique Bid or stroll through the mega mall with a simple click of the mouse.

Farewell to Zer0…Xpress & Unique Bid…DubLi’s Best

DubLi recently made the decision to focus entirely on two specific auction platforms instead of three and elected to enhance the Xpress Auction and Unique Bid while closing down the Zer0 Auction. DubLi’s long term objective has always been to create the best auction platform on the internet and sometime’s it means letting go of the past, so we can more clearly focus on our future, much the same way Microsoft evolved from MS-DOS to Windows Vista. The Xpress and Unique Bid auction portals are in complete alignment with the shopping habits of today’s E-Commerce customers.

New Search Box – Find Exactly What You Want

One of the first things you will notice on the new DubLi.Com website is a larger “Search Box” located to the left hand side of the website. Simply type in a key word for a particular item you are interested in buying…OR… choose to perform a search by typing in the name of the manufacturer. Pretty neat huh? Try it out for yourself and take a test drive, you’ll be very impressed.

In addition we offer a Cross-Selling functionality to the auction site which will highlight similar items of interest based on what you are looking to buy and offer alternative merchandise in a category similar to what you are searching for, complete with a product image and overview. We feel this enhancement will create a lot more options to our customers.

Gift Card Categories – Infinite Choice & Selection

By far one of the most popular choices among customers who frequent our auction is bidding on gift cards. The more we put on, the more customers snatch them up. So we are seriously beefing up the quantity and quality of our gift card selection. The new site will feature a category of available gift cards, from major supermarkets and gasoline to Home Depot and Toys-R-Us and everything in between. If you’re looking to bid on a gift card for a famous steak house; we got it. On the other hand if you’re looking to add some new songs to your iPod, then start placing your bids on the iTunes gift card. Our team of dedicated buyers are actively stocking up the most popular gift cards in the marketplace and making them immediately available on the website in order to keep pace with demand, and with the Christmas season fast approaching, early shoppers are stocking up now. You will be amazed with what we have done with the gift cards.

We’re so excited to unveil the “New” DubLi.Com because we know the impact it will have with our BA’s and Customer’s alike. Even easier to navigate, better selection and functionality, guaranteed pricing coupled with the ability to quickly locate an item of interest makes for a fun and pleasant shopping experience for all.

We hope you love it as much as we do. Good luck and see you soon at the new DubLi.Com…

DubLi’s Luxury Mercedes C-300 On Unique Bid Gets a New Home

Dave Duncan from Orlando Florida places the lowest Unique Bid on DubLi’s auction portal and drives off with a brand new 2009 Mercedes C-300!

Well, it was actually a mystery auction!  The Auto Surprise!

No one knew whether it would be a BMW, Audi, or Mercedes. 

Do you remember when DubLi announced they were auctioning off a brand new European luxury vehicle in Unique Bid, but when it appeared on the website they purposely draped the vehicle from head to toe so no one would know which European luxury model vehicle would be auctioned off? It would remain a secret with DubLi until the auction concluded. It kept everyone guessing as to what the vehicle would be which only heightened the suspense throughout the entire auction.

As the final hours ticked down towards the conclusion of Unique Bid Auction, the bidding accelerated at a frenzied pace as eager customers placed their final unique bids spending those DubLi credits; dreaming of capturing the big prize.

When the final seconds ticked down to zero indicating the conclusion of the auction, one person would emerge victorious with the lowest and unique bid and would ultimately drive off as the proud owner of a brand new 2009 Mercedes C-300 Sports Sedan.

Dave Duncan from Orlando Florida whose bid of $8050 would ultimately be the lowest and unique bid placed at the conclusion of the auction is the lucky recipient of a brand new 2009 Mercedes Pearl White C-300 sports sedan.

 Rik McCoy, the Director of Marketing for DubLi went directly to Orlando in order to personally hand over the keys to Dave and at the same time make it possible to capture the moment on film and video for DubLi associates around the world to see. 

The following is Rik’s description of the event as published in DubLi’s July 28th Newsletter.

When Dave was informed by DubLi that his bid was the lowest and unique for the Mercedes he was delirious with excitement, as he retold me the story and although he had made several purchases through DubLi’s Express Auction in the past, nothing could prepare him for the biggest prize he was about to receive from DubLi. What’s amusing about Dave’s story is that his girlfriend and best friend didn’t believe him when he first told them the news; in fact they thought he was trying to play a practical joke, but gradually he was able to convince them by showing the actual email he had received from DubLi, but still they remained skeptical; supportive but skeptical.

When I arrived at the dealership in Orlando, there stood a brand new Mercedes C-300 Sports Sedan with a fabulous pearl white exterior paint job, chrome wheels, sun roof and luxurious charcoal leather interior. It even had a full tank of gas…every last detail had been carefully looked after. I couldn’t wait to see the look on Dave’s face when he would actually see his new car for the first time. I was so thrilled to be a part of this incredible event and impressed how DubLi had spared no expense for this amazing car. The company even paid the taxes and registration so Dave’s only out of pocket expense was the cost of the bid itself. If you pressed me to come up with a single word describing DubLi and the attention to detail that went into creating this event, it would be… CLASS. Need I say more?

 I distinctly recall Dave driving up to the dealership in an old pick up truck with his best friend and girlfriend at his side and watching him frantically waving his arms out of the truck as he pulled into the parking lot obviously seeing his new car for the first time and the crowd of people who had gathered to see what was going on.

 The smile on his face and the sparkle in his eyes said it all, while his girlfriend and best friend looked numb as if the reality of the moment hadn’t set in yet. “You see, you see, I told you, I told you” is all Dave could manage to say as he ran a complete circle around the car stopping to hug the hood of his new car and then carefully looking over every inch of his remarkable prize from bumper to bumper as if to soak in every second from this special moment, knowing he would remember this day for the rest of his life. I couldn’t be happier for Dave because he is a person who is truly passionate about the DubLi business model which made the event even more special because it was genuine.

If there is such a thing as THE Perfect Customer, it would have to be Dave Duncan, and it was an honor in every sense of the word for me to hand over the keys to this special person who was truly appreciative in every sense of the word.

The next 90 minutes went by so fast it was like a blur as pictures and video captured the entire moment in film for all to see. In the end, it was a time we will all remember well and the memories of this event will remain fresh in our minds for years to come, and then it was time for us to bid our farewells.

Dave shook everyone’s hand for the 50th time, thanked DubLi for his beautiful car at least 1,000 times, and then got into his new Mercedes complete with a DubLi license plate. Next he started up the car for the first time put it into gear and slowly pulled out of the dealership with his girlfriend comfortably seated next to him in the passenger’s seat now firmly convinced by the reality that Dave indeed had placed the lowest and unique bid. We all stood waving to Dave and then he stopped for a moment to acknowledge everyone involved and gave us one long final wave goodbye, and then he quietly sped away, ending one of DubLi’s truly great moments in the history of our innovative Unique Bid auction.

Good luck Dave and enjoy your Mercedes!
