3 Month Update! It’s been 3 months since we launched Shortboxed at C2E2, but it’s felt like a year. I just want to chime into this thread with an update on how things have been going and what’s next. Make An Offer The biggest feature release we’ve launched is Make An Offer, which is exactly what it sounds like. Users can now submit offers on all books that are listed for sale. The product page also displays the current highest offer, and anything submitted below that is automatically declined. This has increased sales greatly, and we noticed a lot of activity on books that have been sitting on the marketplace unsold. Feedback from sellers has been great, with a noticeable uptick in sales as a result. UI and Performance Enhancements We’ve made a bunch of small UI (user interface) and performance improvements, such as more clear navigation buttons, improved search, added more filters (you can sort by era, artist, grade, publisher, etc.), a smoother checkout process and overall faster performance. The entire app is only around 11mb, which is quite an impressive engineering feat to achieve for an app of this caliber, and something I’m personally very proud of. Marketplace Growth We also hit a pretty awesome milestone around the two month mark with over $1,000,000 worth of comic books listed for sale by users. It may not seem like a lot, considering some of the largest dealers alone have multi-million dollar inventories, but to hit this milestone after only 2 months, nearly all from individual users listing their books for sale, is something else that I’m proud of. Currently there are over 1,000 slabs listed for sale, increasing each day. Without sharing specifics, downloads, sales, and seller submissions have increased steadily over the past 3 months, and continue to climb. The number of active users is in the thousands, with the vast majority of users being buyers only, and have not yet listed books for sale. What’s Next We’re always building new features and improving the app, and are constantly talking to users for feedback about what’s working and what’s not. As mentioned in my original post, we’re building a Seller Portal that will allow users to submit books for sale directly within the app, adding more sales and census data to product pages, improving the UI, as well as opening up service to and from Canada (U.S. only right now). Any Feedback? Thanks to everyone in this thread who originally chimed in and shared feedback, concerns, questions, and words of encouragement. For those of you who downloaded the app, I’d love to continue to hear any constructive feedback that you may have after actually using it for a bit. For those who haven’t yet, what are your concerns or reservations with using a new marketplace app to buy and sell comics?
