Designed and written in-house, our pricing calibration software allows us to control the flow of stock bought and sold by modifying margin and sales price on an as-required basis.
Using the rich functionality in the software, the buying teams have real-time access to product availability, conversion rates, product profitability and stock turn across thousands of products in varying conditions, allowing us to accurately and rapidly price stock from a geographically diverse and fragmented supply base.
Flexwork is the parent comany of Golfbidder, Europe's #1 buyer and seller of used golf clubs. What makes us (Golfbidder) unique is the face we're not a peer-to-peer (P2P) business which acts as a middleman (such as, for example, eBay). Rather, we are much closer to a traditional retailer in that we take the capital risk ourselves – all the stock belongs to us and is stored at and shipped from our headquarters in Surrey.
We believe this provides significant advantages for both buyers and sellers over the P2P model.
For Buyers: We aggregate stock under one roof providing a huge choice of stock which can be shipped immediately to anywhere in Europe; We offer a low cost of change - the process of upgrading or part-exchanging is simpler and cheaper than anywhere else; Customers are able to buy by phone, receive professional advice if required - and all products come no-quibble trial periods, long warranties – and the certainty that the goods are not counterfeit (a particular issue in the golf market).
For Sellers: Selling to Golfbidder is quick, safe, convenient and hassle-free. We give a guaranteed price, collect any items the seller wants to sell (or sellers can ship themselves) and we pay immediately upon receipt. And we stick to what we say.
We pride ourselves on our leading technology, business processes, and passionate who are all experienced and highly knowledgeable about their particular fields.
We preach a strong customer service ethic. Our philosophy is that no one leaves the Golfbidder experience unhappy and we are proud to say that our feedback is outstanding.
In 2010 we launched Tackle Fanatics which became one of the best-known retailers of carp tackle in the UK. In May 2018, Tackle Fanatics became part of the Angling Direct website. (Please note - customers who have any warranty issues please contact the manufacturer directly. If your issue is not resolved, please email [email protected] on the Golfbidder customers services team who may be able to help).
In April 2013 we used our technology and experience of trading used goods to launch Camera Jungle - the first website in Europe to offer consumers instant prices for used DSLR camera bodies and lenses. Camera Jungle was sold to Jessops Ltd in spring 2016 and is now headquartered at Jessops' flagship store in Oxford Street, London.
