Traditional auction and for-sale-by-owner sites can operate under myriad of service and listing fees—including price per item listing,  percentage of sales ,final value and listing fees in addition to payment fees, scalable commission cuts, and more. A survey by AuctionBytes of nearly 1,000 people found the number one challenge online sellers face on eBay is fees. (And eBay processes over five million transactions per day.) SOCexchange.com's mission is to improve the buying and selling experience and alleviate the pain that both sellers and consumers encounter by offering predictable cost. SOCexchange.com has a fixed low price commission for its sellers and listers to ensure the best possible pricing for buyers. SOCexchange.com believes by easing the process for the seller, they will pass price breaks on to the customer. Additionally, to provide peace-of-mind to both buyers and sellers, all payments are processed exclusively through trusted payments provider PayPal.

"Everyone can relate to the shortcomings with online auction sites—especially small businesses and individuals who are hardest hit by the outrageous and unpredictable fee schedules. SOCexchange.com is overhauling the online shopping and selling experience by providing a very simple and upfront model," said SOCexchange.com Founder and CEO, Franco Lagudi. "We are so confident of our business model we are subsidizing all commission fees for the first month and all subscription fees for the first year."

Recruiters, Distributors, Real Estate Agents, Car Dealers, Food Retailers and other businesses alike can take advantage of the 1 year subscription free grace period by simply registering for an account and listing their items by January 31, 2012.
