UK’s 1st School Uniform Auction Website Launched

Schooba. co. uk is the first website aimed at both parents and schools and dedicated to the sale/resale of school uniforms within an auction style venue.

Nuneaton, Warwickshire UK (PRWEB) January 18, 2006

Nuneaton based web designer Jacqueline Drury has launched ‘Schooba’, a website aimed at bringing all involved in the provision of school uniforms to one venue. Now for the first time in the UK, parents can sell their unwanted uniform items, place wanted notices and buy replacements all within one website.

“With schools increasingly using uniforms that bear the school badge, parents who have to change their child’s school are left with items of clothing that cannot be used at the new school. This can become very expensive,” Jacqueline said.

Schooba. co. uk is easy to use and provides comprehensive instructions for those new to auction style websites. Site members can place bids and buy online using a variety of payment methods including PayPal.

“Schooba provides an outlet for parents to sell their unwanted uniform items from the comfort of their home and with all new members being offered a £5 credit just for registering with the site, now is a great time to start,” said Jacqueline

Site members can not only list in any of the 210 Local Education Authority categories but also sell in ‘After School Clubs’ and ‘Books’. In addition there is a Wanted Ads section and regularly updated message boards.

“Schooba aims to make the buying and selling of new and unwanted school uniforms much more accessible for all parents,” Jacqueline concluded.

Schooba. co. uk is the first website aimed at both parents and schools and dedicated to the sale/resale of school uniforms within an auction style venue.

Schooba was developed by web designer and mother of two daughters, Jacqueline Drury MA, in her spare time while also developing websites for clients.
