Meet an eBay for Charity Seller: Chris Dawson
PowerSeller-extraordinaire, Chris Dawson, helps Great Ormond Street Hospital (GOSH) heal sick children and finds new customers through eBay for Charity
- Chris Dawson (eBay ID: mountcomp) sells computers and computer parts on eBay. Each month, he asks his suppliers for leftover stock to sell through eBay for Charity. This relationship helps Chris build stronger ties with his suppliers, draw new customers to his shop and most importantly send a monthly donation to GOSH.
- “People may look at your item first because it has a charity ribbon on it”, explains Chris. “Once you have their attention and they click on your eBay shop, you can show them other items for sale. This is what every eBay business seller wants to do”.
- Chris believes that businesses can be profitable and give something back to the community. The stronger his relationships are with suppliers and customers, the more Chris is able to donate to GOSH…so everyone wins.

- "For me, there is no easier way to turn leftover stock into money for charity. I could do a car boot sale and give the proceeds to charity, but then I would have to get up early and load the car. eBay for Charity is a lazy man’s car boot sale!"
