'Quicksell' is a used electronics trading service recently launched by BLQ (CEO Hong Sol). BLQ operates 'Test Valley,' a company that allows customers to directly try out and purchase electronic products. The company has recently achieved remarkable milestones, including surpassing 4 billion KRW in monthly transaction volume and accumulating 12.2 billion KRW in investments, solidifying its position in the home appliance market.
The newly released Quicksell service allows users to upload photos of used electronic products they want to sell to the app, where artificial intelligence (AI) analysis immediately diagnoses the product's condition and the corresponding payment is deposited. By omitting the physical inspection process, the service shortens the time until the payment is received compared to other services.
The payment for used electronic products is determined by comprehensively reflecting the product information and photos entered by the seller, as well as the market price in the used goods market. After the payment is deposited, the seller simply ships the product according to the collection instructions. This service can be used by checking the used market price of the product you want to sell in the Quicksell app and selecting 'Quicksell Certified Sale.'
Currently, smartphones, tablets, and gaming devices can be sold. If you wish to trade products in more diverse categories or want to set the selling price yourself, you can also use the 'Direct Sale' feature. By creating a post about the product you want to sell within the app, you can be matched with potential buyers and enjoy convenient non-face-to-face collection.
Hong Sol, CEO of BLQ, said, "We launched Quicksell to solve the inconveniences consumers face in the electronics market," adding, "It will become a service that innovates the existing used electronics trading market by not only shortening transaction times but also resolving cumbersome communication and delivery issues."
