Happy One Month Birthday - to NYS

Regardless of how you define a month, NYS turned 1 month old this week. In "celebration" (?) we sent an email to all our sellers. For whatever odd reason, I've decided to post that email here. Who knows? Maybe you'll find something useful inside....

=====================================================
Dearest NYS sellers,

Okay, so the infamous "test" email was broadcast to the world instead of just one person. Thanks to all of you who responded kindly (some with humorous sarcasm, you know who you are!) despite the unintentional blooper.

In any case, just wanted to drop a quick note to all of you to celebrate our one month birthday. Yes, NYS is now one month old, a tad big for its age I suppose. Though still in its infancy, NYS is growing quickly and will continue to do so as word spreads (did you see that sweet-looking furniture set on NYS?).

And a few selling tips to help you move your stuff into someone else's storage unit:
1) Include pictures (one is worth a thousand words!)
2) Price it right (i.e. consider reducing the price if it's not selling)
3) Tell a friend about NYS. Then maybe your friend's cousin's neighbor's aunt will be interested in that leftover burnt-orange wallpaper from your mother's house you just can't seem to sell for some odd reason.
4) If you don't have a friend, then we feel sorry for you. But we're sure you'll make one on NYS....:) (try buying something - that's a quick way into someone's heart!)

Anywho, that's enough blabbering for now. I need to go refresh the NYS home page to see what new treasures I might discover that I never knew I needed....

Happy selling!
Austin

p.s. If you didn't see us on TV, you can watch it online here (yes, I'm the goofy-looking one):
