Annual “Restock Tuesday” Event Where Retailers Turn to Liquidation.com to Stock up on Inventory Following Busiest Shopping Days of the Year

WASHINGTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nov. 29, 2016-- Following a record breaking weekend for e-commerce sales, Liquidity Services (NASDAQ: LQDT), a global solution provider in the reverse supply chain with the world’s largest marketplace for business surplus, is pleased to present featured auctions for business buyers to restock on the season’s hottest merchandise. Auctions are held on Liquidation.com, a leading e-commerce marketplace where professional buyers can purchase surplus inventory in the retail supply chain from the top retailers and manufacturers.

Restock Tuesday falls on the Tuesday after Thanksgiving and is historically one of Liquidation.com's busiest days. During the annual event, small business retailers and online sellers head to the marketplace to stock up on a wide range of product categories including consumer electronics, apparel, jewelry, toys, tools, home goods and other hot holiday items. Depending on the type of product and each merchant's quantity needs, merchandise is conveniently available by the truckload, pallet, or in single-unit quantities.

This year, featured auctions include:

• Toys & Games auctions feature popular items such as Star Wars, super hero, and princess action figures and games; drones; sporting goods; airplane models; building blocks; video consoles and games; and much more.
• Jewelry, Watches and Wearables double as the perfect accessory but are also popular gifts this season. Liquidation.com has a broad selection ranging from statement necklaces, rings, earrings and bracelets, engagement rings, fashion watches, smartwatches, loose stones, and pendants.
• The season’s hottest Consumer Electronics including TVs, cell phones and accessories, Bluetooth speakers and headsets, wireless charging stations, Drone Quadcopters, home theater equipment, iPhones and power cords.
• Clothing and Accessories auctions on Liquidation.com offer wholesale prices on top designer brands obtained directly from major department stores and online retailers. Auctions provide a large selection on women’s, men’s and children’s clothing, accessories and shoes.

“Despite a strong weekend for both traditional and online retailers, the National Retail Federation reports that only nine percent of consumers have finished their holiday shopping and 23% have yet to start their gift shopping. To prepare for the December shopping rush, retailers and online sellers will need to restock inventory immediately,” said Jim Rallo, President of Liquidity Services’ Retail Supply Chain Group. “As the leading business-to-business channel for the sale of all categories of surplus retail inventory, Liquidation.com helps small businesses ensure their shelves and websites are stocked for a successful holiday season.”

More than half of the top twenty retailers and manufacturers partner with Liquidity Services to ensure their returned and surplus goods obtain the highest recovery while minimizing their risk and costs. In turn, we are able to make surplus and consumer returned merchandise in over 500 product categories easily available for business buyers, while supporting them with services including secure payment and transaction settlement, integrated shipping services, and live customer support. We ship merchandise globally with direct access to inventory in warehouses located in Garland, TX; Plainfield, IN; Las Vegas, NV; North Wilkesboro, NC; and Brampton, ON.
